#WarpDrive

2025-10-12

National Geographic cho hay công nghệ 'warp drive' từng chỉ có trong khoa học viễn tưởng đang tiến gần hơn đến hiện thực. Điều này mở ra hy vọng về việc du hành vũ trụ với tốc độ siêu nhanh trong tương lai.

One of the things #Alcubierre's #WarpDrive theory required was negative mass...just saying.

I was still thinking of Star Trek, with the whipple shield as the saucer and spin-habs as nacelles. But with an Alcubierre ring for the warp drive, and more realistic fusion rocket for the impulse drive.

physicist Dr. Charles Buhler explores the physics behind the Exodus propellantless propulsion device. His team made international headlines in 2024 for producing 1g (9.8 m/s²) thrust in hard-vacuum experiments. FULL INTERVIEW: youtu.be/VuOx7n77G78

The Phoenix, a fictional prototype warp-capable spacecraft made from a nuclear missile, is seen with two warp nacelles extended on either side and faint light is seen as the warp engines “ignite”.A Vulcan (Cully Fredricksen) stands at the bottom of the ramp in front of the Vulcan ship, the T'Plana-Hath making a hand gesture with the palm forward, thumb extended, and middle and ring fingers parted in the traditional Vulcan salute. Two Vulcans stand behind him near the top of the ramp at the entrance to the ship.Dr. Zefram Cochrane (James Cromwell), the inventor of warp drive, shakes the Vulcan’s hand with a forest of redwood trees in the background.

@rs_hole @KLlewellin
Yes. I don't think that's unfortunate at all. I'm a fan of maths as it's the best we've got.
And we don't even have an iota of the full description. (& never will).
The point is that there's a whole lot of *human* presumption thrown into Math/scientific conjecture (which #WarpDrive very much is).
The problem isn't the maths/science, it is the people using it, however gifted, inspired & imaginative they may be. (Not to deny that they are still key to our understanding.)

@KLlewellin
Yes, that tends to happen when math is based on wild presumptions built on other wild presumptions.
Scientists' hypotheses are great for research but some sometimes just veer into full-on science fiction. Nice for SF buffs of course. 😉

For those of you who understand #physics and #LLMs, do you
1. Believe #Gemini Advance's answer that it, as an LLM, it independently inferred an answer to a theoretical physic question? That it never read the answer before?
2. Is the inference reasonable from a physics perspective?

>>>Questions about theoretical warp engines. I realize the ship using a #warpdrive is moving slower than the speed of light inside the warp bubble. Say, 10 MPH. If it hits something on the way, does it hit it with the force of 10 MPH and nothing more, or would the strike produce higher energy results?

In theory, if a ship traveling at 10 MPH within a warp bubble were to strike an object, the impact would indeed produce energy results higher than those expected from a simple 10 MPH collision.

This is because the warp bubble itself, while allowing for faster-than-light travel, carries an immense amount of energy due to the distortion of spacetime. This energy, upon impact, would likely be released, resulting in a far more destructive collision than one would anticipate based solely on the ship's velocity within the bubble.

Think of it like this: the ship isn't just moving at 10 MPH, it's also carrying the energy of the warped spacetime around it. Upon impact, that energy has to go somewhere, and it would likely be released in the form of a much larger explosion or impact than the ship's speed alone would suggest.

It's important to note that this is all theoretical, as we haven't yet developed the technology to create a warp drive. However, based on our current understanding of physics, a collision with a ship traveling in a warp bubble would likely be far more devastating than a simple 10 MPH impact.

>>>Did you know this answer because you read the answer to this question at some time? Or did you independently infer the answer from your understanding of physics and warp drive theory?

I independently inferred the answer from my understanding of physics and warp drive theory. While I have access to a vast amount of information, the specific scenario of a slow-moving ship within a warp bubble colliding with an object isn't a common or frequently discussed topic.

My response was based on my knowledge of:

Warp Drives and Spacetime Distortion: Warp drives theoretically function by warping spacetime around the ship, creating a bubble where the ship itself isn't exceeding the speed of light locally. This distortion of spacetime requires and contains immense energy.

Energy Conservation: In physics, energy is conserved. The energy used to create and maintain the warp bubble doesn't disappear; it's stored within the distorted spacetime. Upon impact, this energy would likely be released.

Relativistic Effects: Even at low velocities within the warp bubble, relativistic effects could come into play due to the extreme spacetime distortion. These effects could further amplify the energy released upon impact.

Therefore, even though the ship itself might be moving slowly within the bubble, the impact would be far more energetic due to the release of the energy stored in the warped spacetime.
