New warp drive concept does twist space, doesn’t move us very fast. While it won't make a useful spaceship engine, it may tell us more about relativity.
While it won't make a useful spaceship engine, it may tell us more about relativity.
They have some physical scenario, like a planet orbiting a star or two black holes colliding, and they ask how those objects deform spacetime and what the subsequent evolution of the system should be. In a paper accepted for publication in the journal Classical and Quantum Gravity, the researchers dug deep into relativity to explore if any version of a warp drive could work. So the team turned to software algorithms; instead of trying to solve the equations by hand, they explored their solutions numerically and verified that they conformed to the energy conditions.
