Not just possible, happens all the time with muons for example

For example, a rock could go to 99.99% the speed of light?

Relative to the muons hitting the atmosphere at that speed, the entire Earth is already moving that fast.

>>8312776
So you want me to say that the Earth moves to 99.99% the speed of light? Or do you say that moves at the speed of light?

Speed is arbitrary.

its a linear model so the faster you go the less youd weight so if you want to go at light speed you'd have to weigh infinity which isnt possible because energy is conserved and it would violate entropy

It is possible that an OP could do a quick Google search instead of making a fucking thread about it?

yet still technically moving 399,792,458 m/s sower than the light that it emits
