What’s faster than light? Darkness
SMRTR summary
Darkness can move faster than light, and scientists have now proven it. Dark spots called optical vortices — points where a light wave cancels itself out — can outrun the light wave they're part of. Since these vortices carry no mass, energy, or information, they don't break Einstein's rules. This discovery, published in *Nature*, could open new ways to study fast, hidden processes in physics and biology.
