Scientists announce a physical warp drive is now possible. Seriously. Here’s what you’ll learn when you read this story: A ...

Warp drive has long been a narrative shortcut for science fiction, but a new generation of physicists is treating it as a ...

A new warp-drive study proposes a novel segmented design that brings hyper-fast space travel one step closer to becoming a ...

Applied Physics unveils a new type of warp drive—a theoretical method of space travel that complies with general relativity and operates at a constant subluminal speed without requiring unphysical ...

The idea of warp drive—the ability to travel faster than the speed of light—has fascinated humanity for decades. It began as a fictional concept in Star Trek and Star Wars, fueling imaginations and ...

Warp drives are among the more plausible of science fiction concepts, at least from a mathematical perspective. Now, Applied Physics, a multidisciplinary group of international scientists and ...

After almost six decades and hundreds of years of future history, the fastest way to travel in the final frontier is still by firing up your faithful warp drive. Star Trek’s famous faster-than-light ...
