Warp Drive in Reality

1. It appears that if we can make enough negative energy, we can make a warp drive aka, a travel-able, wormhole.
2.For the few subjective seconds we'd be weightless-not like Trek.
3. We'd get from earth to alpha in two weeks.

I suspect our alien brothers can throw us some tips. But, hey, we'd rather do it ourselves!

I am thinking, at least tonight, that these guys are scattered far away, and, also, that economics would govern these guys needs like our does.

How much effort to spin-up enough neg mass to fly to backwater earth? The interest may be there, but if there is no ROI, the funding won't be available.

I am really skeptical, but not ready to say it is impossible.

Re: Warp Drive in Reality


Its Totally reasonable to be doubtful. My only caveat is that we have a very few, physicists willing to openly, chat, about it. Plus, the technology to make new discoveries, has yet to be built and deposited in the far reaches of the solar system, where sensitive, possibly, planet-sized detection equipment, needs to be placed. Good luck getting funding for that, in the year, 2018.

We simply need to learn from (honest) science and keep putting one foot in front of the other, without ideology or cant.

We'll hit warp speed soon enough, in the great scheme of things.

.....unlimited supply or funding will probably be solved first...

Yeah. This is the Dark Age, or the youth of our specie. The click happens when we get a knowledge explosion. Most call it the Sing, others The Rapture...whatever.

We may get something like this is Drexler ever wins the technology race, so to speak. Centuries, or just a decade?

Re: Warp Drive in Reality


Understood. Its beyond our control of course. Having said this, it is why I groove on QC and machine intel, because it has the potential to push tech capability beyond anything we have today. So some of us may get to see the future expand before us, maybe?

There are huge advances seen with lasers, in the next decade, at the rate of 10 times the power, every 3 years! Thus, we will enter an age of Laser anti-nuke capability, laser fusion, and laser-initiated space propulsion (fusion or laser sails). Keep the faith.
