"According to Einstein's special theory of relativity, it would require an infinite amount of energy to propel an object at more than 186,000 miles per second."
ARG! That's not what the theory says! It says you need infinite energy to move something, with mass, AT the speed of light, but there is nothing to stop you moving faster than the speed of light if you can work out how to get there!
