Warp drive

This is also the appropriate place to assess claims of interference or concealment.

In the sources examined here, no documented secrecy order, procurement record, court finding, seized apparatus, altered dataset, publication block, or institutional directive shows that a functioning warp drive technology was intentionally hidden or obstructed.

a patent application using warp drive language would not settle that question either patents record claimed inventions they do not certify performance caution around an extraordinary technical claim can be frustrating and speculative research can struggle for funding or institutional attention those facts alone do not demonstrate interference with a successful device the record contains no documented case of a verified warp drive result being suppressed In 2021, Alexei Bobrik and Gianni Martiere offered a useful reframing in Introducing Physical Warp Drives.

Their use of physical was technical, not promotional.

They treated warp drives as spacetimes associated with moving shells of matter and distinguished subluminal positive energy examples from superluminal cases with more serious energy condition difficulties.

Their paper also sharpened a neglected point.

The shell itself must move.

A claim of this kind lives or falls first on the internal consistency of its geometry and stress energy.

Quantum Foam, episode 60, Warp Drives.

[upbeat music] Physics.

Physics is at the foundation of all.

We are getting some more content.

It's 11:00 PM on a Friday night, a good time to record the last episode of this decimal.

This is episode 60, Warp Drives of Quantum Foam.

We are going into warp drives.

We want to be able to travel faster than light.

For us to leave planet Earth and do bigger things, a lot of that stuff is bigger than profit.

We're going to have to figure out a way to be able to build things as a society that don't necessarily have to have a price tag attached to it so that we can develop stuff like warp drives and big gigantic ships and da-da-da-da-da-da.

Like, you know, right now...

I feel like what they're trying to do is they're trying to get AI to get faster so that the more developed AI and the agents can solve mass amounts of, like, when you start thinking about a functioning spaceship with, like, you know, gravity, with warp drives, man, there are a million problems that need to be solved and managed all at one time.

Yeah.

Right.

That created

Warp Drive.

Warp Drive.

I can see the actor and I can't think of his name.

Yeah.

And everyone has...

And everybody's, like, looking at him like, you know, like he's some kind of god.

Yeah, he's the guy that did Warp Drive.

Whether such beings could exist and how they would interact with our matter and light are questions the analogy simply can't visualize.

There's one more idea that belongs here in this chapter because of its prominent place in ufology's discussions on interstellar travel, warp speed, or more broadly, manipulating space-time itself.

It's an idea explored by some of the scientific figures most closely associated within ufology, including Hal Puthoff and Eric Davis.

Puthoff has published work on space-time metric engineering, investigating how altering space-time might enable advanced propulsion.

So, Nick, you said the story.

Did you read the story that scientists say warp drive is possible?

I saw the headline, but then it started.

I don't know if they can build the structure.

Is it like a Star Wars

warp? Yeah.

Yeah, that kind of warp drive.

I think.

What if you grab that carpet, put like a wave in it, and you push the place you came from away, and you bring your destination towards you? But like I said, what's remarkable is, as amazing as that idea is, it doesn't even need to be correct to explain how aliens could get here.

The benefit of warp drive is you can get home in time for dinner.

Basically, because if warp drive doesn't exist, let's say for the sake of argument, it's impossible, which may or may not be the case.

Let's say it's impossible.

Well, then that's okay because it just means when you leave your planet, you can never get back because thousands or millions of years have elapsed.

The idea that Star Trek's Enterprise can zoom out, way out into the universe and go at multiple light speed and come back to Earth and still be in the present.

Is that plausible?

Only with warp drive.

It does not prove that the objects in the new military videos are extraterrestrial spacecraft.

And the inclusion of documents discussing warp drives, wormholes, anti-gravity and negative mass does not mean the Pentagon proved any of those technologies exist.

What Release 6 gives us is something more complicated.

A window into how the United States government has repeatedly confronted the same problem across three very different eras.
