Dr. Magueijo talked about his book, Faster Than the Speed of Light: The Story of a Scientific Speculation. In it, he argues that Einstein’s theory of special relativity is incorrect, and proposes the Variant Speed of Light theory. He argues that during the first second after the Big Bang, light travelled faster than 186,000 miles per second. This, he says, is the key to understanding many of the puzzles facing cosmology today. Following prepared remarks, he responded to questions from the audience. close
