This Star Trek concept ignited a dream that humans could one day travel faster than the speed of light. Now physicists are ...

Traveling at warp speed is now 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 ...

A team of physicists has discovered that it’s possible to build a real, actual, physical warp drive and not break any known rules of physics. One caveat: the vessel doing the warping can’t exceed the ...

NASA scientist and Advanced Propulsion Team Lead Harold White has the kind of job thousands dream of and few achieve -- he's in charge of the space agency's efforts to determine if a faster-than-light ...

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 ...

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 ...

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 ...

Anyone who grew up obsessed with Star Wars will know the thrill of seeing Han Solo and Chewbacca launch the Millennium Falcon into hyperspace for the first time. In the films, hyperdrive engines allow ...

There have been some awesome inventions in the world of science fiction over the years. Whether it's the Tardis from "Dr Who" and its miraculous traveling abilities or the teleporting talents of the ...

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 ...

To construct a warp drive, we'd need 10 times more negative energy than all of the positive energy in the universe. When you purchase through links on our site, we may earn an affiliate commission.
