In signal theory information is also often used as a synonym for **[signal](signal.md)**, however a distinction can be made: signal is the [function](function.md) that carries information. Here we also encounter the term **[noise](noise.md)** which means an unwanted signal mixed in with the desired signal which may make it harder to extract the information carried by the signal, or even obscure some or all of the information so that it can't be retrieved.
According to the [theory of relativity](relativity.md) **information can never travel [faster than light](speed_of_light.md)** -- even if some things may move faster than light, such as a shadow, so called "spooky action at a distance" (usually associated with quantum [entanglement](entanglement.md)) or even matter due to the expansion of space, by our best knowledge we can never use this to transfer information faster than light. For this it seems our communication technology will always be burdened by [lag](lag.md), no matter how sophisticated.
