What happens if you go faster then the speed of light?

Read the title. According to One Stone we can't go faster then the speed of light and if we do something will happen with time, it might even stop. I believe we can go faster then light its just that everyone who has, is stuck in whatever they got to and so nobody knows about it and we are the last creatures in the universe not to have done it already. That's why there ain't no aliens around. edit: there are some variables that are pretty much impossible such as the energy resource, set them aside and think if we could actully pull it off. Gimme your wild ideas. Discuss. Relevant info: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Theory_of_relativity

  • Our current understanding is that you cant go faster you can only get super close to it, even if we could get a space ship up to that kind of speed the amount of energy involved is unfathomable. As for the time slowing down thing that happens to those traveling at the speed of light, i could explain is to you but i dont want to add more to this wall of text, ask if you want me no thought. As for the aliens think there are several possible explanations as to why we haven't been contacted, i find i difficult to believe that there is no alien life out there but like you said that they all disappeared some people believe that there comes a point where they destroy them selves much like we almost have before. All these habitable planets could have been around for much longer than us, a natural disaster could have killed the life there.
