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 ...

A recent study has sparked excitement in the scientific community, suggesting that warp drives, a staple of science fiction, could actually be possible. Published in the journal Classical and Quantum ...

Warp drive has long been a narrative shortcut for science fiction, but a new generation of physicists is treating it as a serious, if distant, engineering problem. Instead of asking whether ...

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 ...

From Alcubierre’s warp bubble to quantum scale experiments and gravitational wave signatures scientists are quietly building ...

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 ...
