Message:

If I was on a spaceship going the speed of light, and I ran from	
the back of the spaceship to the front, wouldn't I be going faster
than the speed of light, and isn't this supposed to be impossible?

Also, If the spaceship had headlights, would the light from them be
visible?
                        Thanks,
                                     Charlie Hatsell
