NASA discusses its warp drive research, prepares to create a warp bubble in the lab
2013-08-20 19:29:53| Extremetech
Late last year, it emerged that a small team of NASA researchers were working on warp drive technology in the lab. Led by Harold "Sonny" White, the team devised a variation of the Alcubierre warp drive that could almost be feasibly produced -- if we can work out how to produce and store antimatter. Now, White is ready to discuss some other facets of his warp drive, such as the energy requirements, what a spacecraft with a warp drive would look like, and what it would be like to travel at warp speed.
