What' the equation for speed of light?
The equation is:c = 299,792,458 meters per second in vacuum .For any substance in general:c = (299,792,458 m/s) / (the refractive index of the substance)
What do you need to travel at the speed of light?
There is no way to travel at the speed of light.
Is it possible to travel at the speed of light in water?
The speed of light in water is less than the speed of light in space. Only light can travel at the speed of light.
What travels at light speed besides engines?
Engines cannot travel at light speed. The only thing that can travel at this speed is the Photon, the particle of light.
Will light speed travel be possible in our lifetime?
Probably not in five lifetimes! Light speed travel is a work of fiction, like in sci fi movies. No human will ever travel at the speed of light.
