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” ...

This is the first spacetime to be written down in which a warp-drive is not required to have exotic negative energy. That one ...

When you buy through links on our articles, Future and its syndication partners may earn a commission. This warp drive is a theoretical concept where a spacecraft travels faster than light by ...

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 ...

“Scotty, I need warp speed in 3 minutes or we’re all dead.” This command by first generation “Star Trek” Captain James Kirk in the fictional 2020s is a famous line in modern science fiction. It’s the ...

Physicists have been exploring the theoretical possibility of spaceships driven by compressing the four-dimensional spacetime for decades. Although this so-called 'warp drive' originates from the ...

NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Today, Applied Physics®, a multidisciplinary group of international scientists, published a milestone study in the prestigious Classical and Quantum Gravity journal, ...

The picture depicted above is not some secret NASA project built in the recesses of the dark side of the moon, but the brainchild of concept artist Mark Rademaker, who designed what could be the first ...

Scientists say a real warp drive may no longer be pure science fiction, thanks to new breakthroughs in theoretical physics.
