Warp drive has quietly shifted from pure fantasy to a live topic in serious physics, with new models showing how spacetime ...

For the first time, a group of physicists has written down a warp drive concept that does not ask the universe for impossible ...

Warp drive is a hypothetical faster-than-light (FTL) propulsion system in many works, most notably Star Trek. A spacecraft equipped with a warp drive may travel at apparent speeds greater than that of ...

Applied Physics unveils a new type of warp drive—a theoretical method of space travel that complies with general relativity and operates at a constant subluminal speed without requiring unphysical ...

A team of scientists has proposed that we could use existing Earth-based observatories to hunt for advanced alien life forms by seeking out the activity of their hypothetical warp drives. Sure, it’s a ...

After almost six decades and hundreds of years of future history, the fastest way to travel in the final frontier is still by firing up your faithful warp drive. Star Trek’s famous faster-than-light ...

Interstellar travel may still be in the realms of fantasy, but a NASA team is working on physics theories that might one day make it possible guy norris / los angeles Marc Millis, outgoing director of ...
