A research paper proposes a fully physically realized model for warp drive. This builds on an existing model that requires negative energy—an impossibility. The new model is exciting, but warp speed ...

“This study changes the conversation about warp drives,” pronounced Dr. Jared Fuchs, as a transition between science-fiction ...

For more than a century, Einstein’s relativity has set a hard speed limit for the universe, with light as the ultimate ...

The dream of faster-than-light travel has been on the mind of humanity for generations. Until recently, though, it was restricted to the realm of pure science fiction. Theoretical mechanisms for warp ...

Late last year, it emerged that a small team of NASA researchers were working on warp drive technology in the lab. Led by Harold "Sonny" White, the team devised a variation of the Alcubierre warp ...

Setting aside for the moment the extreme unlikelihood of ever building an Alcubierre drive, I was wondering what would happen to any object that was caught in the leading or trailing edge of the warp ...
