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.

In 1994, Miguel Alcubierre was able to construct a valid solution to the equations of general relativity that enable a warp drive. But now we need to tackle the rest of relativity: How do we ...

More In 1994, Mexican theoretical physicist Miguel Alcubierre decided to figure out if the "warp drive" from his favorite science fiction shows was possible. Amazingly, he found a way to make it ...

To construct a warp drive, we'd need 10 times more negative energy than all of the positive energy in the universe. In 1994, Mexican theoretical physicist Miguel Alcubierre decided to figure out ...

Alcubierre’s theory from 1994 came with a notable caveat: dark energy In 1994, theoretical physicist Miguel Alcubierre proposed his Alcubierre theory, which states that a “bubble” within space-time ...

Warp Path 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 ...

Alcubierre’s warp drive avoids violations of the speed-of-light limit because it never moves through space; instead space itself is manipulated to, in essence, bring the spacecraft’s ...

One idea for realizing warp drive is the 'Alcubierre Drive' proposed by physicist Miguel Alcubierre . In Einstein's general theory of relativity, the effect of gravity is seen as a 'distortion of ...

Inspired by Gene Roddenberry’s Star Trek, physicist Miguel Alcubierre set out to transform one of the cornerstones of science fiction iconography, the Warp Drive, into reality.
