When it comes to special relativity over large distances the difference between moving through space and space moving is important. I'll clarify.
When space expands, individual pieces of space move. Space itself is not bound be the C constant, and so, does not time travel when exceeding C. If an object is not moving through space, but the space containing it is moving, then the object can move faster than C, while not technically doing so. This is the concept behind a warp drive. If we can move space, we can move, hypothetically, infinitely fast.
Both special and general relativity are one of the hardest fields to visualize. Harder than quantum mechanics, in my opinion. Don't feel discouraged if you don't understand a lot of the concepts put forth.
There are galaxies moving away from us faster than the speed of light; does this mean we're time-traveling relative to those galaxies? Or did i totally miss the point? :)
Thx
Also, I don't think it's possible, even for a votebot, to take your rating below one star ;)
