Imagination has never been the most intractable problem in the physics of warp drive; it has been bookkeeping. The Alcubierre concept of 1994, the celebrated one, fits in the general relativity theory ...

It is even possible to fit a warp drive within the equations of Einstein-and still make it practically unavailable. Over ...

The idea of warp drive—the ability to travel faster than the speed of light—has fascinated humanity for decades. It began as a fictional concept in Star Trek and Star Wars, fueling imaginations and ...

Add Yahoo as a preferred source to see more of our stories on Google. The first warp drive design from the early 90s required massive amounts of negative energy, but three decades of honing the math ...

Exploring the universe in Star Trek is as easy as firing up the warp drive and zipping off to the next adventure, but real life is much more tedious without faster-than-light (FTL) travel. Physicists ...
