Warp drives have long lived in the realm of science fiction, but the underlying physics that inspired them is very real and surprisingly precise. As researchers probe the edges of general relativity ...

A century after Albert Einstein sketched out his radical picture of gravity, astronomers have now watched a black hole ...

"Warp drives" used by super-advanced alien civilizations may create specific space-time ripples in their wake that we can spot from Earth, a new paper argues. However, the jury is still out on whether ...

If humanity ever wants to escape the solar system, we’re going to need a faster-than-light engine. Enter: the warp drive. While such a drive pushes the limits of known physics, a new study ponders ...

If travel to distant stars within an individual’s lifetime is going to be possible, a means of faster-than-light propulsion will have to be found. To date, even recent research about superluminal ...
