Handout picture taken on September 1, 2009 and made available on September 23, 2011 shows the detectors of the Opera experiment to measure neutrinos at the Italian National Institute of Nuclear Physics INFN's Gran Sasso Laboratory. Physicists reported on September 22, 2011 that sub-atomic particles called neutrinos can travel faster than light, a finding that -- if verified -- would blast a hole in Einstein's theory of relativity. In experiments conducted between the European Centre for Nuclear Research (CERN) in Switzerland and INFN's Gran Sasso Laboratory 730 kilometres (453 miles) away in Italy, the tiny particles were clocked at 300,006 kilometres per second, about six km/sec faster that the speed of light, the researchers said.
