Imagine a self-replicating mass moving in two directions, let us say making a rod 2" in diameter, and infinitely extending itself (by means unknown). When this stick of material reaches a few hundred light-years in length, a slight rotation at it's center will result in endpoint velocities exceeding our friendly constant C ( Read more... )

Anyone who wishes to discuss Alpha, please contact me. I have problems with that constant too. :)

Imagine a black hole. Even knowing the inverse proportion laws, Imagine a body moving at standard speeds towards said black hole. Allow for L (Length) to be infinite. Then examine C. I propose C is not a constant.

If you're willing to accept that the rod can extend infinitely and be rotated in this manner, why not accept that the end can go faster than C? That's just basic angular velocity.
