If an object vibrated with a 149.535 micron ampitude at 1 trillion Hz, its 
atoms/molecues would be moving at 299,700 kilometers per second, around 
999/1000 the speed of light. At that speed, time for the object might slow down 
enough so that when it stops, it would have traveled a significant amount of 
time into the future. (granted the object doesn't shatter, and you could get it 
to vibrate at that frequency) Would that really happen?
