The speed of dark would be the speed of the universe’s expansion
The universe is 92 billion light years across, divided by it’s age, 13.77 billion years.. so the speed of dark over history is 6.68 times the speed of light
“There is no such thing as a stupid question.”…….Whoever said that never attended a town meeting, an employee meeting, or just about any type of meeting where anyone gets to ask questions.

I think we have found the question that is the exception to the rule.

A friend told me the speed of dark must be greater than the speed of light because when the light gets there the dark is already waiting.

Zero. Dark never moves. The light moves through it.

Tried measuring it once but every time I turned the light off I couldn´t see the speedometer.

Whenever I hear, “There’s no such thing as a stupid question,” I scan the room and guess which person subconsciously thought, “Challenge accepted.”

Can dark go at worp factors? Kinda like let’s get out of here – “Scotty, worp dark 10”

Just a little slower than Muhammed Ali.
Ali is noted to have said “I’m so fast that last night I turned off the light switch in my hotel room and was in bed before the room was dark.”

As dark disappears as fast as light appears, then the speed of dark is about 186,282 miles per second…

The Click and Clack brothers discussed this several years back, another example of the depth of Car Talk!

How about some love/credit to Steven Wright who came up with that joke over two decades ago?

There are no stupid questions…. only stupid QUESTIONERS.

That’s a good question, Rory! Dark disappears at the speed of light appearing. IMHO
