Q: Why is the speed of light only 186,000 miles per second? Can't science do better than this?
A: Yes, you're right. It's a disgrace that light only goes a measly 186,000 miles per second, but physicists are working on the problem. There is already a prototype vehicle that goes 200,000 miles per second, but the headlights shine at only 186,000 miles per second. This is equivalent to driving down the freeway the wrong way with the headlights not only *out* but also chasing you down the road. This is why so many scientists today no longer own a driver's license. Ask Dr. Science
