Physicists discovered that the famous ‘Star Trek’ spaceship got a lot right about designing a ship to jump from galaxy to ...

Traveling at warp speed is no longer an impressive sci-fi idea, as researchers at the University of Alabama, Huntsville, have suggested a new theory for a warp drive that follows the theories of ...

New research "boldly goes" where physicists have never gone before, suggesting what would happen to the space around a failing warp drive. In addition, a team from the Queen Mary University of London, ...

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

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” ...

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 ...

If humanity ever wants to escape the solar system, we’re going to need a faster-than-light engine. Enter: the warp drive. While such a drive pushes the limits of known physics, a new study ponders ...

You know that scene in the film Contact where the “Machine” is spooling up, its three spinning rings kicking out crazy light and an electromagnetic field powerful enough to pitch nearby Navy ...
