The transfer of superluminal signals in a Milne universe is studied. This universe is isometric to the inside of the future light cone. It is shown that if an observer sends a superluminal signal to another observer and receives an answer, the answer cannot reach him before the signal has been sent. It is also shown that the observers agree on the time order of events corresponding to tachyonic signals, provided they agree on the sign of the energy of that tachyon.
