Scientists have always said that traveling faster than the speed of light is a basic impossibility. Has this changed? Is there any hypothetical, scientifically plausible way that could move a space ship at faster than light speed, or is the speed of light still an absolute barrier?


Looks to me like you could. All you have to do is go fast enough. I would also assume that no one could see you coming.

But where are you gonna go?

if you can travel faster than the speed of light, why the hell would you ever want to stop?
