Travelling at the speed of light?[Question]

And of course, matter with negative energy of that kind does not exist as far as we know.
What about the idea of using space folding to instantaneously travel? Like the off mentioned hypothetical wormholes.
To-morrow, and to-morrow, and to-morrow,
Creeps in this petty pace from day to day,
To the last syllable of recorded time;
And all our yesterdays have lighted fools
The way to dusty death. Out, out, brief candle!
Life's but a walking shadow, a poor player,
That struts and frets his hour upon the stage,
And then is heard no more. It is a tale
Told by an idiot, full of sound and fury,
Signifying nothing.
