Scientists said the warp drive, once considered to be purely hypothetical, is slowly edging toward legitimate physics.

If a warp drive explodes in deep space, will anybody hear it? Probably not, but new research suggests that humans could one day detect the ripples in spacetime such a catastrophe would create, ...

Dubbing these “closed timelike geodesics” (CTGs), Ralph and Sajeendran explain in the paper: “Such a CTG would be ideal for ...

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 ...

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 ...

Groundbreaking new research has discovered a means by which a constant velocity warp drive could be possible without the need for exotic particles or negative energy. Without the fictional idea of a ...

Star Trek's iconic warp drive, once pure science fiction, is now inspiring real-world astrophysicists. Scientists are developing theoretical models t ...

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 ...
