Light Travels Backwards and Faster Than Light
This could bring up some interesting possibilities in the future. I imagine it could someday be used to aid with, at the very least, power and communication. One step closer to the Ansible anyone? I can't work out how it would help human ships travel faster than lightspeed to reach other galaxies, though admittedly that was the first thing that came to mind at the mention of anything faster than lightspeed.
It also, strangly enough, reminds me of nerve signals jumping along healthy nerves.. oh what would I have ever done without that year of biology. That model could be used, though, if the signal breaks down over straight longer lines. Whatever we're using the light signal for.
