It is even possible to fit a warp drive within the equations of Einstein-and still make it practically unavailable. Over three decades, “warp drive” has existed in a creaky half-life, theoretically ...

In the warp-drive literature, a shortage of imagination has never been the most recalcitrant hindrance. It has been one, savage demand: the demand of negative energy “exotic.” Recent theoretical ...

Warp drive is a hypothetical faster-than-light (FTL) propulsion system in many works, most notably Star Trek. A spacecraft equipped with a warp drive may travel at apparent speeds greater than that of ...

Physicists have been exploring the theoretical possibility of spaceships driven by compressing the four-dimensional spacetime for decades. Although this so-called 'warp drive' originates from the ...

A team of scientists has proposed that we could use existing Earth-based observatories to hunt for advanced alien life forms by seeking out the activity of their hypothetical warp drives. Sure, it’s a ...

After almost six decades and hundreds of years of future history, the fastest way to travel in the final frontier is still by firing up your faithful warp drive. Star Trek’s famous faster-than-light ...

If humanity wants to travel between stars, people are going to need to travel faster than light. New research suggests that it might be possible to build warp drives and beat the galactic speed limit.
