Without a doubt light. It moves at just shy of 1 billion fps.So speaking of fps, what's the fastest? Rail gun?
When discussing the SOL, it should be mentioned that atoms start to weigh as much as cannonballs as one approaches that velocity. As for the speed of the fastest rail gun, it is something considerably less than 11km/sec (escape velocity from Earth).Without a doubt light. It moves at just shy of 1 billion fps.
