Question:

Tachyons are hypothetical particles (never observed, at least so far) that always travel faster than light. Therefore in general relativistic spacetimes they would follow spacelike (rather than timelike or null) geodesics. Prove that the deflection of such a particle in passing by the sun would be less than that for light.
