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 ...

For decades, the idea of the warp drive—an incredibly cool, incredibly hypothetical cheat code for crossing impossible ...

The pursuit of faster-than-light travel has long been a staple of science fiction, but recent advancements in theoretical physics suggest that warp drives could one day become a reality. Scientists ...

Here’s what you’ll learn when you read this story: Now, a new study led by Harold “Sonny” White—former NASA scientist and leader of the experimental Eagleworks laboratory at Johnson Space ...

Warp drive has long been a narrative shortcut for science fiction, but a new generation of physicists is treating it as a serious, if distant, engineering problem. Instead of asking whether ...

In a surprising paper, scientists say they’ve nailed down a physical model for a warp drive, which flies in the face of what we’ve long thought about the crazy concept of warp speed travel: that it ...
