Technion Israel Institute of Technology physicists found something that can move faster than light: the darkness inside it — 3 April 2026 (LINK)
— They're known as phase singularities or optical vortices. This does not break relativity, which states that nothing can travel faster than the speed of light. That's because the vortices carry no mass, energy, or information, and their motion is based on the evolving geometry of the wave pattern rather than any physical motion through space. "This breakthrough provides us with a powerful technological tool: the ability to map the motion of delicate nanoscale phenomena in materials, revealed through a new method (electron interferometry) that enhances image sharpness."
