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 ...

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 ...

NASA physicist Harold White is boldly going where no one has gone before with his work on a warp drive. White has been working on the project since 2010 and it’s so Star Trek-inspired that the designs ...

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 ...

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 ...

Interstellar travel may still be in the realms of fantasy, but a NASA team is working on physics theories that might one day make it possible guy norris / los angeles Marc Millis, outgoing director of ...

Aided by the gravitational pull of Venus and the sun, NASA's Parker Solar Probe became the fastest man-made object in history when it launched in August 2018—yet its top speed is still less than 1% of ...
