Cherenkov radiation. Look it up. And understand why I specifically talked about in vacuum in previous paragraphs.

With our current understanding of physics what we know is that we can't accelerate to the same speed as light in vacuum.
What we currently do not know is if it's at all possible for something to travel faster at all in vacuum.
I specify vacuum due to the existence of Cherenkov radiation.

Nothing known travels faster than c (speed of light in vacuum).
In a non vacuum medium, light does not travel at c.
Try studying if you don’t believe what I said.
