I stumbled onto your question about why photons move at C in the Quantum Theory Forum:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Why is it that massive objects can not travel the speed of light but massless objects can?
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I assume it's going to be difficult to get a real scientific answer outside of the usual mathematical explanations. I suppose know one really knows why massless particles travel at C.
It's been suggested that massive particles travel at C through time as massless particles travel at C through space. I'm know authority on physics but it is interesting to think about. Do you have any ideas about this or are you just searching for your own answers right now?
