In the grand body of the universe and even our own solar system the speed of light is incredibly slow on the cosmic scale. Why does it have this speed limit ? It is theoretically possible to go faster than light ? Or is light just the fastest thing we have observed thus far ?

Light (and all other electromagnetic radiation) depends on the “conductivity” of both magnetism and electricity in a vacuum. Light can’t travel any faster than electricity can generate magnetism or magnetism can generate electricity.
