Using a type of Einsteinian thought experiment I used to describe to my students; if you and your friend were to construct two rigid beams, each a light year in length and arrange them alongside each other, about a foot apart, it would be easy to transmit information *much* faster than light. Simply move the one beam slightly and, due to leverage, the other end of the beam (a light year away) would move instantaneously. Your friend would only see the image of you moving the beam a year later but would already know about it!

Sorry the faster than light travel is at the math modeling level not the functional model level.

It will only be time before it is all true. Scientist are also working on faster than light travel and have two working models now.
