The dream of a warp drive, a futuristic propulsion system that could allow us to cover astronomical distances at the speed of light or faster, is still alive. While the idea has historically been ...

Recent research has brought new life to the concept of traveling faster than the speed of light, a technology once confined to the realms of science fiction, particularly popularized as “warp drive” ...

In the 1990s, Mexican theoretical physicist Miguel Alcubierre proposed a new kind of hypothetical warp drive that would allow a spacecraft to travel faster than the speed of light. To pull off that ...

Standing at the doorstep of an interstellar revolution, scientists are now nearer than ever to breaking the code of warp drives a technology that can propel human civilization throughout the galaxy at ...

“Warp drive” spacetimes and wormhole geometries are useful as “gedanken-experiments” that force us to confront the foundations of general relativity, and among other issues, to precisely formulate the ...

David Pares points to the Faraday cage that he uses in his warp drive experiments in the garage of his Aksarben-area home. David Pares believes he has the makings of a warp drive right here in his ...

You know that scene in the film Contact where the “Machine” is spooling up, its three spinning rings kicking out crazy light and an electromagnetic field powerful enough to pitch nearby Navy ...
