I’m a Scientist is like school science lessons meet the X Factor! School students choose which scientist gets a prize of $1000 to communicate their work.
Scientists and students talk on this website. They both break down barriers, have fun and learn. But only the students get to vote.
This zone is the Boron Zone. It has a range of scientists studying all different topics. Who gets the prize? YOU decide!
It is true that all particles the are massless travel at the speed of light. There is a hypothetical particle called a tachyon which has negative mass and travels faster than light, but there’s no evidence they actually exist.
I don’t think it is actually possible to have negative mass. Although, given that we’ve just discovered the Higgs Boson, which is the thing that gives everything mass, who knows what we’ll be able to do in the future?
