“Star Trek” introduced the world outside of rocket science circles to the concept of warp drive – the propulsion system that allowed the starship Enterprise to travel faster than the speed of light. Warp speed is the holy grail that would let us explore the universe safely surrounded and protected by a space-distorting warp field. After watching the SpaceX rocket recently just try to land on a platform, you’d think this ability is years if not decades away. Yet the buzz on space websites is that NASA may have accidentally discovered a way to create a warp field. Wait, what?
The supermassive black hole is 40 million times as massive as the sun and powers a quasar that existed 700 million years after the Big Bang.
The asteroid zoomed by Earth at a perfectly safe distance of around 1.8 million miles (2.9 kilometers).
Images show surprise changes to the spacecraft as it interacted with the atmosphere.
Well... We're all dead...
I know it's a long shot. But if this proves correct, we could be looking at a MAJOR step in humanity's evolution as a worldwide civilization. The possibilities are endless. Here's hoping Murphy's law comes into effect and proves something no one thought possible by accident.
Sounds like we just found Mass Effect relays lol
Are you saying that the Millenum Falcon escaped an Empire Star Destroyer.... Due to an accident?!
So they made LIGHT travel faster than the speed of light... woop dee freakin do.
Make something physical travel at light speed and then call me.
