...shoot bursts of electrons into the accelerator at close to 186,000 miles per second, which is the speed of light, ultimate speed limit in the universe. Pushing them harder and harder does not make electrons go much faster. Instead they get heavier, turning energy into mass according to Einstein's famous equation: E = mc². In the Cambridge accelerator, the electrons get moving at 99.9999996% of the speed of light, and have enough energy to weigh 12,000 times as much as when they were at rest...
