2) And how did they measure the speed? I don't know of a method to directly measure the speed of something; usually, an indirect method is used – through energy. The energy of a relativistic particle is E=mc^2/sqrt(1-v^2/c^2). No matter how large it is, this formula gives vc, and E becomes imaginary. Did they obtain an imaginary E? Or did they measure v differently?
Well, there's actually another awesome method.
Take VERY accurate clocks.
Measure the distance VERY accurately.
Have an object run the distance.
Record the time.
Divide the distance by the time."
