Warp drive, a recent study of the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) looks promising than ever


He is taking the first step toward interstellar travel, star has too far away. Voyager 1 is traveling at 0.006% of the speed of the speed of light, is far away about 17 light time from the earth, which is to travel one light year, it means that it takes about 17000 years. Fortunately, the mystery of the "warp drive," now, the previous difficulties, developed by a new theoretical advances, been developed in order to measure the deformation of artificially generated space-time a NASA test It likes being.

Warp drive, if he does it again in the work of your inner space-time, in the light (FTL) off the fast was physicist Miguel Alcubierre than is possible traveling proposed in 1994 completely fictional concept from the fact that it is, warp bubble that is moved in a broken it was superluminal speed. It is not like a magic carpet. The main idea is faster despite the lack of the travel can material things that than the light, and the ability to expand the space itself when present but higher speeds are not well known, is that the contract of. I only proposal, the minimum rate of expansion of space-time during the period of cosmic expansion is that it was 30 million billion times the speed of light.


It is, in order to compress the space-time in front of the spacecraft, using the influence of the deformation effect of gravity, to expand the space-time of subsequent behind. Bits of the internal flat space-time of bubble wrap, the spacecraft is to be floating in zero G along the wave of compression and expansion space-time. The net effect, I is almost a bit like a certain and had been surfing "compared to the waves, it will run in the wave velocity. Many theoretical studies have examined the movement of the warp bubble at 10 times the speed of light, there is no limit to the potential rate known.

This is to allow subluminal travel in principle, can be used as this warp bubble (the moving slower than light), and superluminal travel (travel faster than light). This option may seem silly - so, instead, No fast low-speed running? However, there is likely to be much easier to reach the number of warp subluminal underlying cause engine. In addition, space travel of the speed of light 90%, we are now, any of much higher than on the books.

This is, in many respects, seems very easy. So far, all of the unit requires a pressure to strain to form an energy superluminal and negative bubble wrap, to maintain. Question in accordance with these features, does not exist in classical physics. Meanwhile, there are several possibilities phenomenon of quantum mechanics to negative energy, it is generally not suited to produce the desired curvature of the bubble.

Another problem is that it is required to start a large warp bubble negative energy. Original model for Alcubierre takes more than negative energy of the total mass of the universe for processing a small probe to move 10 times the speed of light. Fortunately, improvement of the model we were led to a reduction in energy requirements for several hundred kilograms of equivalent mass of material having a negative energy. Mind you, we do not know whether it is a way to get this amount of money, it's possible that you feel a high prospect.

Usually referred to as the negative energy and the negative pressure exotic substance and the substance, we do not know everything. However, another possibility is that space - the time of the expansion is the use of dark energy - after all, this is to observe the rapid expansion of the universe, we are the way you are aware of the existence of dark energy. 3/4 close to the amount of energy of the universe, is a dark energy, thin spread, the equivalent of about 10 atoms of hydrogen per space 1 liters. That said, the dark energy that uses the warp engine can seem an overwhelming task.

The rather it means that this is not possible. To place this in perspective, please consider a magnetic. Interstellar magnetic field will rotate around the Earth of Nanotzla or from about 1, to 50,000. This is, we are, if for any practical purposes, is all that it knew of the magnetic and the harness, it is unlikely. However, a small rare earth magnet has a billion times stronger than the magnetic field between the field star. It's recklessly spend the possibility is not wise.


All of the bubble, warp unknown difficulties with respect to conversion on and off. Quite very complex models for the analysis - it does not mean that it is impossible to establish a model of this process. In addition, bubble symmetrical curvature, so far, so, how do you decide the direction in which they move? Reformulation of the theory of relativity warp bubble to propose a solution to this dilemma, it seems there is a defect in the theoretical analysis. It is unclear whether it can be corrected without any errors lose results.

Other problems and superluminal warp bubble have a clear need for the front end of the engine curvature of field to move faster than light, is generated. Ship continues to move forever, or in some cases to hit something at least until it becomes impossible to control the inner engine nacelle superluminal deformation of the bubble, it is, for all parties It would be cumbersome. Talk about hitting something, we currently, if the bubble wrap affects the external object, do not know what will happen.

This can generate a high number of forms Hawking radiation of bubbles warp superluminal level and has a field of view of the visible events. Some of the researchers, some, it is to believe it does not become a problem, the ship believe that is burned by this radiation. Although jury is still out, it seems to be likely to be able to avoid these problems.


Before creation of the warp bubble material, different types of inputs would be nice to know anything about how that can distort the real space. This is the intent of the new NASA and overlapping white Ju Day warp field (WFI). The WFI can overlay can be used to measure changes in the traditional paths nm and less variety of lengths. However, in this case, without changing the optical path length by moving the mirror and distorts the space-time with a small pilot scale. 10 million a fraction length of such small changes as 1, can be detected.


To confirm whether a result can detect the distortion of the electric field up to the ring electrode voltage is the first test of the device. If so, the same optical signal to those found on the left side of the figure leads. And analysis of the signal, it will create a graph of the amount of deformation in accordance with the position of the inner ring charge.

Take the message, but practical warp is a distant engine, and on a small scale that serious efforts are being made now, is that in order to learn more about their potential. In the same or 2022 whether the engine is a reasonable opportunity along the line of the Alcubierre warp, you can copy of this article is relatively safe.
