Can Warp Drives Be Engineered? Ex NASA Researcher Thinks So

Warp drives are science fiction technology that allow spaceships to travel faster than the speed of light.

Physicists have tried to make sense of this by contracting the space in front and expanding the space behind the ship. In a new paper, a former NASA scientist outlines how we can engineer such warp drives. Really? Let’s take a look.
