Warp drive pioneer and former NASA warp drive specialist Dr. Spaceships at warp velocity would continue to interact with objects in "normal space".ĭec 2021.
Warp involves a measurable passage of time using an exponential scale called "warp factor" where a factor of 10 is infinite speed. This is in contrast to other faster-than-light technologies such as a jump drive where travel is in hyperspace lanes and are much faster than warp drives as you could jump from point to point down these lanes almost instantly, taking multiple jumps to get to a destination. In this way, dilithium could regulate the antimatter density, and thus the matter-antimatter reaction rate. Antihydrogen atoms are threaded through the lattices of the dilithium crystals and therefore remain a fixed distance both from atoms of normal matter and one another. The displacement "ride" had the effect of reducing the inertial mass of the spaceship, which required inertial dampers to control.ĭilithium crystals regulate the matter-antimatter annihilation rate, because they are the only form of matter known to be “porous” to antimatter. This is a subspace displacement field which warps spacetime around the vessel, encompassing it in a subspace bubble, allowing it to "ride" in this distortion and effectively travel faster than the speed of light. In Star Trek: Federation warp drives were fueled by the reaction of matter (deuterium) and antimatter (antideuterium), which produced a highly energetic plasma, which was channeled through conduits and field-generation warp coils to create a warp field. The space inside the rings is optimized to fit more space for cargo, crew and equipment. The ship has two thick outer rings that generate the warp field-a contraction of space ahead, and expansion of space behind it. The energy required to power the warp drive approximately the negative mass–energy equivalence of Voyager 1 which is 700 kg or 63 exajoules of energy. Harold White, using the Alcubierre drive and exotic matter. The IXS Enterprise is a conceptual interstellar spaceship designed by NASA scientist Dr. Because of the extreme energy requirements of warp drives, warping large interstellar distances (in the case of Gen VI drives, >20 lightyears) is ill-advised. This Alcubierre warp drive theory was first suggested by Miguel Alcubierre, stating that to build one would require negative energy and exotic matter, the same stuff needed to maintain stable wormholes. This solves the special relativity dilemmas and ensures that there are ordinary velocities, there is no time dilation, and no prohibitive fuel cost. The spaceship does not actually travel faster than light but rather a high-energy warp core reactor is used to compress 4d spacetime in front of the ship (so it contracts), and decompress spacetime behind the ship (so it expands), creating a warp of spacetime and displacing the ship forward, propelling it along like a surfboard on an expanding wave of spacetime. Rather, a quantum source of gravity needs to be understood in order to have the ability to manipulate spacetime in such subtle ways.A warp drive is a spaceship propulsion system allowing it to travel at speeds faster than light by many orders of magnitude. So I wouldnt give too much attention to its predictions on this kind of stuff. GR is not a quantum theory anyway, so althaugh it has many exelent predictions, it is fundamentally quite flawed.
But not necceserely in general relativistic sense. Casimir effect is something that could be considered something producing energy. The answers probably lie in the nature of the quantum vacuum. Nonetheless one still needs negative energy which is a bit of a problem no matter how little the amount you need. But with the right distribution and some sofistication one coud get even the absolute value of required energy drop down to a quite practical value. What you would do is, you’d compress space-time ahead of the craft and expand space-time behind it. Suppose you have a craft that’s in the bubble, he continues, quoted in a university press release on the talk. That it at first of course, not so good, because the energy conditions needed are in the negative. Joseph says, Mathematically if you fulfill all the energy requirements, they can’t prove that it doesn’t work. archive/nasa//20110015936.pdfĮven for FTL the energy requirements are extremely low.
