"These "cosmic bullets" are the highest energy particles in the
universe, packing wallops 100 time higher than anything produced in
the most powerful atom smasher on Earth. Scientists have long been
tantalized by glimpses of this rare variety of cosmic rays and
conflicting explanations for their existence abounded, even
challenging Einstein's theory of special relativity."

How can these "cosmic bullets" challenge Einstein's theory of special
relativity? Has their "highest energy" anything to do with their
speed?

"Another positive part of the story is that special relativity has
survived its most severe test," Smolin said.

Frenchmen would say: "Oh la la oh la la oh oh!". How "cosmic bullets"
challenged Einstein's special relativity and how Einstein's special
relativity survived in the end will probably remain a secret. At least
nobody in Einstein zombie world would ever ask Einsteinians to
explain.
