I'm one of those non-believers that don't actually think faster-than-light travel is possible.
God I hope one day I'll be proven wrong by men and not some weird looking martians.
As far as we know, it's not, but there is a theoretically possible Warp drive option. Yeah, exactly like Star Trek, you create a bubble around you and compress/stretch space in such a way that you travel a much shorter distance between point A and point B, and thus you travel a subluminal speeds, but get there faster than light would anyway.
