In physics, it is what is known as the Alcubierre Warp Drive. On paper, it is a highly speculative, but possibly valid, solution of the Einstein field equations, specifically how space, time and ...

Arvix – Metamaterial-based model of the Alcubierre warp drive by Igor I. Smolyaninov of the University of Maryland.. Alcubierre imagined a small volume of flat spacetime in which a spacecraft sits, ...

Artist’s concept of a spacecraft using an Alcubierre Warp Drive. Credit: NASA. One of the reasons for this is because this method would not rely on moving faster than light in the local sense ...

Universe Today has the full 11 page article, The Alcubierre Warp Drive: On the Matter of Matter by the University of Sydney. The region of space behind a superluminally travelling warp bubble is ...

Is The Alcubierre Warp Drive Possible? Season 2 Episode 6 | 7m 21s Video has Closed Captions | CC. Inspired by Gene Roddenberry’s Star Trek, physicist Miguel Alcubierre set out to transform one ...

The Alcubierre Warp Drive is one of the most fascinating theoretical concepts in modern physics, proposing a method to achieve faster-than-light travel without violating Einstein’s relativity.

A former NASA propulsion physicist has, he says, resolved a certain paradox in a hypothetical warp drive. The Alcubierre drive uses a huge amount of energy to make a sort of fold-like pocket ...

HOUSTON — A warp drive to achieve faster-than-light travel — a concept popularized in television's Star Trek — may not be as unrealistic as once thought, scientists say.

The Alcubierre drive is, of course, still highly speculative. NASA scientists are working with small-scale models in an effort to produce localized distortions in space, but this new Aussie ...
