Most of these drives rely on exotic ideas like negative energy or superluminal matter, and while non-profits like Applied Physics are putting up money for research into warp drives based in real ...
A revolutionary study introduces a warp drive model compatible with known physics, offering a scientifically grounded approach to faster-than-light travel.
Warp drive, or a drive enabling space warp, is one of several ways of travelling through space found in science fiction. [3] It has been often discussed as being conceptually similar to hyperspace. [3] [4]: 238–239 A warp drive is a device that distorts the shape of the space-time continuum.
The Alcubierre drive ([alkuˈβjere]) is a speculative warp drive idea according to which a spacecraft could achieve apparent faster-than-light travel by contracting space in front of it and expanding space behind it, under the assumption that a configurable energy-density field lower than that of vacuum (that is, negative mass) could be created.
On December 1, 2009, he began hosting a 12-episode weekly television series for the Science Channel at 10 pm, called Sci Fi Science: Physics of the Impossible, based on the book of the same name. Each 30-minute episode discusses the scientific basis behind imaginative schemes, such as time travel, parallel universes, warp drive, and similar.

Several recipients began to respond in kind, claiming to have equipment such as the requested dimensional warp generator. One recipient, Dave Hill, set up an online shop from which the time traveler purchased the warp generator (formerly a Hard Drive Motor), while another Dave charged thousands of dollars for time-travel "courses" before he ...
[10] [5]: 238–239 [9]: 75 [11] [1]: 404 [13] [14]: 156 Some works use multiple synonyms; for example, in the Star Trek franchise, the term hyperspace itself is only used briefly in a single 1988 episode ("Coming of Age") of Star Trek: The Next Generation, [15]: 353 while a related set of terms – such as subspace, transwarp, and proto-warp ...
