Theorizing the Tachyon: The Spark of the Superluminal Age (1966)

In 1966, physicist Gerald Feinberg ignited a revolution with a daring proposal: what if particles could exceed the speed of light? He coined the term “tachyon”, derived from the Greek tachyós, meaning swift, to describe hypothetical faster-than-light particles. Far from a mere thought experiment, this marked the beginning of a bold new inquiry—one that challenged the foundational boundaries of physics and pointed to dimensions of energy not yet understood.

Feinberg’s work was grounded in special relativity but expanded into speculative quantum field theory. He demonstrated that by mathematically extending the energy-momentum equations to imaginary mass, tachyons could, in principle, exist—occupying a domain beyond our familiar space-time limits. Though met with skepticism, this formulation planted a seed that would later flower into a transformational vision of energy, coherence, and healing.

At the time, mainstream science saw tachyons as paradox-generating oddities—potential threats to causality. Yet, for those listening with expanded perception, Feinberg’s equations hinted at a universe rich with superluminal order—a vibratory intelligence beyond speed and force. From this insight arose the deeper inquiry: What if tachyons are not particles in the traditional sense, but gateways to a field of pure potential?

This foundational moment now stands as the entry point into the Tachyon Era—a scientific awakening that redefined energy not as frequency, but as potential waiting to be accessed through coherence and consciousness.
