Versione italiana: I radioamatori del CERN superano la velocità della luce

Amateur radio operators at CERN break the speed of light
Amateur radio operators at CERN have succeeded in making a QSO at faster than the speed of light. Amateur radio operators are allowed to use the facility at CERN in the time between experiments. They have succeeded in generating quantum waves at 3 times the frequency of light at 2000 THz. Visible light corresponds to 385 THz to 780 THz and travels naturally at the speed of light; higher frequencies can only be generated as quantum waves. Quantum waves propagate faster than the speed of light in perfect vacuum proportional to their frequency.
For the QSO a special burst version of WSJT-X was developed, with which it is possible to make a QSO in FT8 burst mode in 1 microsecond. Before this sensational success can be announced to the public, the confirmation of the connection in form of a QSL card has to be done. In the next few days, however, there will certainly be a small announcement in the media.
