A warp bubble that uses ordinary matter brings relativity back to center stage
This is the first spacetime to be written down in which a warp-drive is not required to have exotic negative energy. That one ...
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 ...
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” ...

New warp bubble using normal matter throws relativity back into the spotlight
For more than a century, Einstein’s relativity has set a hard speed limit for the universe, with light as the ultimate ...
Groundbreaking new research has discovered a means by which a constant velocity warp drive could be possible without the need for exotic particles or negative energy. Without the fictional idea of a ...
Einstein’s general theory of relativity is a tool kit for solving problems involving gravity that connects mass and energy with deformations in spacetime. In turn, those spacetime deformations ...
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 arrange ...
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 ...
