EINSTEIN IN NEED OF UPDATE? CALCULATIONS SHOW THE SPEED OF LIGHT MIGHT CHANGE

In 1905, Einstein made major changes to laws of physics when he established
his theory of relativity. Now Einstein's laws might also undergo
significant changes.

<snip>

"There is nothing wrong with Einstein's theory of relativity. If the energy
of an object is much smaller than 1019 proton masses or if the distance
between two objects is smaller than millions of light-years, Einstein's
equations are still valid," he says.
