Here is a nice article about Alcubierre's theory on the warp drive propulsion system!

According to Alcubierre's theory the potential for creating a hyperdrive space warp is available - we just need to create a device which is capable of creating one of these warps, and then in theory we could travel all of space in an instant! The other difficulty with making this theory is that once the hyperdrive state is enacted through the warp then there's no way to come back out of it.
This is still in the realm of theoretical science, but I find it fascinating, and to consider that we know it's a potential shows me that perhaps ET's are aware of this potential too :)

How will we make it to other galaxies without such technology? Light years mean much less when we can bend the light space time continuum!

P.S. Thank you all for following me this far - I intend to make the journey worth while! I am starting to sit down longer with my writings before posting them so I'll be posting less, but with higher attention to quality!

Sort:  

Alcubierre's work is insanely interesting, amazing he's been working at some of his proofs for over 20 years. Longer posts are all the better! I'm sure many would agree quality over quantity is best. You should think about doing a more detailed post on alcubierre's drive, would be sure to give it a read!

Agh I agree!
It's so dense though, and I'm certainly nowhere near an expert on the subject - I just wanted to give people a direction towards his work. Thanks for the advice though :) I'm glad you'd check it out!

@trismegistuz Check out the link I posted below - its a video with nice commentary over what I posted here and can certainly do a better job than I can other than regurgitating it :) Peace

Wow.

You have earned yourself a loyal follower with this post.

It sent me straight down the rabbit-hole into things I had forgotten I even enjoyed (LQG, Brane Cosmology, anything written by Lubos Motl, etc...)

I have such a comparatively basic understanding of the math that I absolutely need to rely on physicists who are clever enough to dumb the information down for lay readers, which puts me in a position of having to basically trust what a select few physicists who communicate well with non-physicists (Brian Greene, Lee Smolin, old writings and videos of Feynman).

So it’s always nice to be pointed in the direction of physics ideas that may fall outside the scope of what those types of authors are writing/lecturing/blogging about.

Thanks again!

I may very well be too undereducated to actually talk about something like this, and I’m sure I could just google it, but I like the conversation, so I figured I’d ask...Is this all that different from those Einstein-Rosen bridges wormhole things (I’m sure you are impressed by my ability to use very technical language like ‘wormhole things’)?

Hahha worm-hole things is very descriptive :) Well, I'm honestly unsure but I think you're right at least that it's based on the thought that we can stretch time out as it appears in front of us, and also shrink space, so that we are effectively moving through more space in less time.. That's what I gathered lol, amazing huh??
. I'm gonna post a link to the Cosmic disclosure episode where I got this from so you can watch the whole thing and we can have questions together about it - because like you I'm in way over my head.

Yes physictcs can be so brainy that it's difficult to comprehend, yet they say that the language of the universe is math: SO LEARN IT! aha... tough..

My pleasure! Glad you are here to visit me :) I'm gonna post that video now and link you to it so you can see where I got this info from at least... And I'm happy to have met a friend in the cosmos so I'm followin ya back!
