My grandmother was born in 1900. When she was ten years old, she watched one of the first 60 mph airplanes fly over the farm where she lived. She died at the age of 101, and lived to see space probes sent out of the Solar system. Who knows what the next 100 years will bring?
I remember watching Star Trek one day and thinking that actor playing Stephen Hawking looks just like him. Then I looked at the credits for the show. Holy crap! That was Stephen Hawking! It's completely awesome that they had him do a cameo in that episode.

@@ArvinAsh There's a reason Frank Herbert's Dune novels are generally considered the greatest novels in all of science fiction. Dune was the direct inspiration for much of Star Wars - the entire fictional universe of Star Wars wouldn't even exist if it wasn't for Dune. While the 1984 Dune film leaves the viewer with the assumption that the Navigators could manipulate space time for space travel, this assumption is entirely incorrect. In the books, the ships themselves manipulate space time; so that's the part of the equation that your video here was discussing. But if you remember, in Dune, the most important and valuable aspect of space travel were the Navigators - humans that had evolved over hundreds of years using the spice known as Melange, which gave the Navigators short-term prescience abilities. This gave them small glimpses of the near-future, which allowed them to know when objects would be in the path of the traveling space ship that would result in a collision (stars, asteroids, comets, meteors, planets, moons, and other space debris), so they could adjust the trajectory of the space-ship accordingly to avoid the collision. That's why they were called Navigators. And that's the greatest problem of them all - you can't travel that fast unless you have an effective way to navigate so you can avoid collisions with the various types of objects you'll encounter during space travel - such as stars, asteroids, comets, meteors, planets, moons, etc. To this day the subject of navigation is one very few science fiction movies like to touch - the reason it's briefly mentioned in the first Star Wars film is because the concept of navigation was still very fresh in George Lucas' mind from the Dune novels.
@@Tekel-Upharsin But you are not traveling that fast. Traveling at or near light speed though space would do that but you are creating a pocket and moving in that with this drive. It pushes every thing else out of the way.
Ya movie n book great, in essence warping space is one way but if we could fold it n create a momentary worm(black holes) with controllable point n a safe zone in the middle-zone for travelers we could find those galaxies in moments not years
If the Alcubierre Drive was plausible, then Miguel Alcubierre would have been working on solving it non-stop since he wrote his original paper in 1994. It would be his life's work. He hasn't thought about it since 1994. That's all you need to know.
@@ohroonoko Oh yeah. We so forget that imaginary propulsion systems based on supposition vaguely related to misconceptions of relativity is called....Science Fiction. Gene Roddenberry imagined wrap drive as a plot mechanism for a science fiction franchise. Just because he imagined something that looks like early cell phones does not mean the show is factual
@Enlightened ☀️ the matter and energy in the distorted space wouldn't matter i think :) the distortion is relative, and only those inside the ship could see the distortion - as a relative effect to their own frame of reference. within the distorted space, everything is distorted, so to objects within the distortion, no distortion occurs. and these theoretical phenomenon would occur at such speeds as Cx meaning that the amount of time anything spends distorted would be incredibly small, and likely too small for even those inside the ship travelling at warp-speeds to notice.. that's my thoughts on it anyhow
Alcubierre deserve's the *first* name spot being the one who originally proposed the idea, with theory, while White _optimized_ it 🤔 But, I can see the why u did so 😏
This was so well done, easy to follow and understand the actual concept, and the stumbling blocks needed to be overcome. Basically, the expansion of the universe proves that negative energy exists, we just don’t know what the heck it is at this point. Not only will it make a warp drive work, but it can create anti gravity, and artificial gravity, but it may take us a few hundred years to come up with the answers. Straight talk about science. A+
@@amberblakley9315 In a way it well, but the concept was to use the ionized particles in space to fuel a fussion rocket. The problem was to do that with the amount of particle. So you have to be going fast enough to get enough mass to produce a fussion reaction. In the way you are correct is that in vaccum engineering and the false vaccuum state the movement and density of particles effects the fabric of space.
@@Malamockq Not according to einstein he said time is not a thing. Time is not a dimension and time travel is impossible. The effects of time distortions or within time dialation.
@@Malamockq Einstein said light is a universal speed limit. And he showed how hard it was to get to the speed of light. But also said that if nothing went faster than light the universe would not exist. He also showed in general relativity that space could expand faster than light. He showed that light going into a blackhole would move faster than the speed of light in normal space in a vacuum. He said that time is not a constant. Warp drive does not go against general relativity. And time travel is impossible because time is not a thing and time is not a dimension. There is nothing in Einstein's work that does not allow warp drive to be possible. Even with the possibility of time travel warp drive is possible because the ship does not move, the curved space around the ship moves. There is a difference no violation.
according to my equations respecting all the laws of wifery around 250 unhappy wifes would be enough negative energy to propel anti gravity vehicle of any size for around 50 000 light years

It's amazing how long it took scientist to finally stop trying to tear Einstein's work apart when they could have been adding to it all along. Einstein's work was unfinished which is why it seemed implausible.
Good comment. When Einstein first proposed relativity only a handful of people understood it. Today maybe still only 20,000 people understand. Can you explain his tensor equations and the math of time dialation?
Because a big part of scientific theories is going out of your way to try to disprove these theories to best ensure that youre getting the most accurate explanation. Its great that there werent any flaws in e=mc^2, but if there was, and we never tested it to find out, wed be working with a flawed equation

Pretty sure we have no way to bring the people from Mars back to Earth, which means that we can't send them there in the first place. Correct me if I'm wrong, but as I understand it, manned missions to Mars are still impossible with current technology.
I had the whole negative energy problem solved, but then the wife comes home with a pizza, bottle of Lambrusco, and a smile, and I forgot the whole equation!!
I got my negative energy to a much higher state. To dissipate the associated warp field my wife bought home all of the above plus a really cute friend.
Mr. Ash , Surely you realize that "negative-energy" is about as real a concept as "negative-gravity" , so how's about examining "warp-drive" in relation to "effective neg.-energy" ? This is after all , how current gravity-defying mechanisms work , and they don't require ungodly amounts of power to function , either . Tricking nature by finding work-arounds of her laws and limitations , is what our technology is based upon . Figuring out new technologies is just a matter of finding the "levers-of-control" . *To study examples of this , read my post at : quora.com/Is-a-reactionless-drive-possible/
I just found your channel and absolutely love your content. You break things down in such easy to understand ways (well, relatively easy lol). The effort you put into your on screen graphics/demonstrations though is what really shines for me.
Einstein said we have to be curious to do science. Scientist 1: Is warp drive possible? Scientist 2: What's for supper tonight? Curious in their own ways as always.

A brain that can not just bend reality, but will things in and out of it. It imagines, and then it is so.

@@victorius2975 see, I kinda classify them both as separate entities and exemplars of thier own genres. Star Trek originally was about politics and what humans could be or do if we stopped being right bastards to each other. It gave hope, which is why I think it inspires so much. Star Wars is quintessential space opera. It's more about the old stories of knights, princesses, and wizards only set in space. It instead focuses more on telling a tale. The lore and tech are filled in later. It's an escape. Nothing in our universe is connected to it. I can see why some people would be attracted more to the hope of Star Trek, or the fantastical universe of Star Wars.
@@robos3809 Star Trek needed to be modernized. I can understand certain aspects of the visuals changing and the subject matter.

Eliasguitarred You want to earn some extra credentials to look good on your resume do an interview of Alcubierre on camera ask questions and have him draw examples on a whiteboard. Also ask him What is his take on Robert Lazar’s scientific explination of the spacecraft he worked on at S-4 Area51, since the Craft seemed to use a propulsion system that specifically performed this mode of travel-Creating a concentrated gravitational distortion in front of it and _free-falling_ towards that distortion which essentially means its bending Space-time towards it to move.

@@effortlessawareness8778 oh my, that seems like something I'll have to study for years before I understand, but seems so cool, I'll check out the interview, thanks!!!
Dear Eliasguitarred: At age 68 I tell you what matters. Nearly all professors are intelligent and nearly all are equally pompous. However, an open mind can often trump over the most of intelligent minds - including your professor Alcubierre. For example: If I were in any of his classes I would confront him with the following. When we walk we walk through space. We don't stand still ordering all of space to come to us. Not even the most wealthiest of us, nor the most famous of us, has the ego to even speculate that all of the universe comes to us. Furthermore, this pompous theory assumes that all of the asteroids, comets, and other space junk are going to make way for our spacecraft of say about 500 million miles per hour (that's nearly 75% the speed of light). So, odds are, given enough travel at that speed - Ka Bang! That would be the result hitting just a basketball sized asteroid! And onboard radar wouldn't be able to warn you in time (to turn from it) because radar has to travel twice the distance and you are already traveling 75% speed of that radar - going one way! I repeat again - Ka Bang or Ka Boom - whichever you prefer professor!
If this ever works imagine the possibilities, I'd love to live in that time, where astronomical distances would be no more out of reach, we could even find different alien species
Yep...it could happen in our lifetime. Thank goodness NASA exists - they are the only ones to my knowledge who are seriously trying to figure this out.
Not to mention quantum teleportation and sub-spatial communication over interstellar distances. Star Trek tech is bare minimum for exploring the cosmos
I wonder how time dialation works here. If u travel thru space at high speed u travel into the future of those not moving relative to you. So if u warp the space itself would if work out to be the same? 0 dialtion because it expands back the same as it was? Would u go into the past? If u could instantly teleport to a planet 100 light years away and could look thru a telescope at earth u wud suddenly see it 100 years in the past from what u remember
I listened to Alcubiar on the "Event Horizon" podcast a while ago and even he himself said that his warp-drive principal was most likely impossible because he pointed out a many number of issues that would arise with it and he said himself that some type of wormhole technology was more likely to be possible than his warp-drive concept simply because wormholes mainly only have issues you have to solve to get them to work instead of negative issues that arise from them working in the first place, I'd be down for either but I think wormholes would definitely have a more dramatic impact in our everyday lives as a means of travel rather than having a big spaceship able to move in outer space, instead of airports on earth or any other planet we could have wormhole-ports which could help us travel
"Gives them the ability to fold space…that is, travel to any part of the universe without moving.” - Frank Herbert, Dune, 1965. Alcubierre didn't invent this notion ...
@Dwight Charles Neither was Frank Herbert. He and Roddenberry were just dreamers coming up with fanciful notions of the future. But Einstein didn't come up with the idea of warp drive, it just happens to fit his theory of relativity.
Frank herbert Imagined work wholes. Gene rodenberry imagined warping space in the 60s. Alcuberre worked out the math and made it theoretical physics instead of fiction. Worm holes violate the second law of thermodynamics
I just started my undergrad in physics because of Quantum field theory and Alcubierre's theoretical warp drive. I hope to study dark energy and it's implications toward harnessing negative energy/anti-gravity.
@@ArvinAsh Thanks for the response! much like Alcubierre, I was inspired to study the universe when I was young by watching shows like TNG and Cosmos. One of the concepts that fascinates me is one put forth by Neil DeGrasse Tyson, the idea that we are they way by which the universe is able to know itself.
The energy required would probably just kill everything instead of powering the drive. Imagine trying to control the energy of 1000 hydrogen bombs. Nothing can hold that
Since beginning of time: Physicist and Theorists: Yeah, theoretical it’s maybe possible but in praxis I see no chance how to apply it, because there are certain problems that cannot be solved! Engineers: Ohh you actually say it’s possible? Ok then, hold my beer!
Also consider: Mathematicians: We found this new equation! Too bad It's probably not applicable to anything in the real world... Physicists: Neat! It solves the problem I was having!

Thank you for rationally discussing hypothetical concepts without any BS or sensationalization. You show that it's OK to entertain unusual ideas without getting caught up in it and accepting it as fact without any evidence.
It's a credit to the Star Trek writers. They tried to keep it as grounded in real science as they could. Everything from transparent aluminum,iPads, smartphones, Google Glass, etc, were all depicted in Star Trek before it was invented. It's been argued that anything you can imagine can be done somehow, the logic being that imagining something physically impossible is itself physically impossible. Human imagination cannot concieve of anything impossible or physics defying because our brains are composed of matter from the universe which itself has rules. So everything you can think of is within the realm of universal possibility. The trick is figuring out how to do it. Once we solve the energy problem, things like FTL will be small potatoes.
It's amazing how something you once couldn't even conceive can be explain by someone with just words. As none scientist, I think I understand it now. Thank you.
If you took some entangled photons of frequency f, blue shifted one photon to f + delta f, and redshifted the other photon to f - delta f, you might be able to store some gravitational potential energy between the entangled photons. You wouldn't need negative energy to create an Alcubierre field. You could create the field by continually generating entangled photons and centrifuging them.
Famous story of Prof. Stephen Hawkins. The time he made a cameo on Star Trek they gave him a tour around the set. When he entered the Engineering Section and showed him the warp drive, he told the crew, "I'm working on that."

San Silvius i did find a few, but not with good explosions as in this one. Its not that the other ones are hard to understand, but this one really helped me get a better idea of how it works
This is the first time I've enjoyed a video so much without understanding a word! All I know is there's a chance that warp drive could become reality!!
This gibson dude who replied to you four times is an idiot, but this idea is actually brilliant and would make an incredible short story! I honestly smiled, and then said to myself "Huh" when reading your comment.
Monody that’s true. But after seeing the movie many times I finally realized that what the professor was talking about was solving the problem of gravity to get the huge space cylinder into space. Which was their underground facility at the time. It’s a little weird how they could build that on earth without knowing how to launch it. In real life without a gravity solution it would have been built in space.
A Dyson Sphere is the most likely candidate for that. Although then the question becomes "How do we safely put so much energy into a spaceship-sized warp drive and how the hell are we going to make such a small device generate enough output to actually warp space?"
@@Weerknuffelbeer I think what will happen is we will create warp points in space and ships will just get near them and utilize their fields for travel
@@ghostiewhostie238 video games are based on Albert Einstein's theories. If you generate enough power you actually Bend time and space and yes you can bend two points together that are very distant and simply step through a Gateway and appear on the other side, some immeasurable distance away from where you started without any time passing whatsoever. That's what the term Warp means. Like taking your T-shirt holding it in half cutting a tiny hole in it where the folds meet and then when you open the T-shirt up you see that the holes are very far apart
And what about the energy required to slow down? In order to land on any Earth like planet? It could take months, even years, to slow down enough before even reaching the nearest solar system of such a planet! Braking any harder requires even more energy and could kill all on board! For example: When Star Trek in the 60's, showed Spock counting down from Warp 8, to Warp 1, to Sub-Warp, all within 30 seconds? Such braking, in reality, would have splattered them against those colorful consoles of the Starship Enterprise! And the ship itself might even be compacted like a stepped on empty soda can! Don't brake enough, and in short, you bypass your target - but if you spent most of your energy attaining Warp speed from Point A - you won't have nearly enough energy to do any required braking - once arriving at Point B! So, it's all so impractical - if not just outright impossible!
The ship isn't moving 9000x the speed of light. In fact it isn't moving at all. Space is moving around it. If this ever becomes a reality, one could assume the planet would be moved out of the way, or space distorted enough to prevent a collision.
@@celtisafricana4984 No you made a mistake and are covering for it by pretending it was a joke. If you actually understood it you wouldn't make a joke like that.
Lawrence Krauss explains that the net energy of the universe is zero, and that we can get a universe from nothing. Our universe is a bubble of negative energy (or at least zero) relative to whatever is outside our universe. The cassimer effect made that pop into my mind. Could it be that we are existing "between the plates" so to speak.. And rather than our universe collapsing like the plates, our negative energy allows it to sustain and expand. Thinking out loud.

I saw on a Star Trek episode where Picard said we had stopped poverty, hunger and working for economic gains. Everyone was working for the betterment of mankind. Once we acheive this, then perhaps we will get that warp drive technology. Star Trek gave us the blueprints.
Yes, exactly! We are in the stone age in terms of technological achievements and there are other conscious beings out there who are millions of years ahead of us and have already figured this stuff out. I think they want to help us but they will not initiate contact until we become more civilized. I see it as we are the people of the north sentinel island and these conscious beings, who are the rest of the world in this analogy, who are millions of years more advanced than us are not coming near as we have not yet shown that we are peaceful. Quite sad honestly
If you watch first contact, Zefram invented and successfully tested his warp drive directly after WWIII. Warp drive gave humanity one voice and one purpose. Helped heal Earth and brought everyone together. Warp drive was the beginning of the end to want, money, poverty and hunger.

8:04 What does it mean exactly when you say you can go 10X the speed of light?? Like lets say you want to travel to Proxima Centauri and it is mostly flat, unwarped spacetime between you and the destination. Black holes merging has taught us that gravitation waves propgate at the speed of light. The grid of spacetime "updates" at the speed of light. So how would this warp drive be able to fold the flat space time and zoom along faster than the gravitational waves from a black hole merger?
what you're talking about is akin to hyper drive or einstein rosen bridge. einstein rosen bridge is the thing Asgardians use for travelling. in that scenario the distance of trip. but here we are actually going faster. trip distance is still the same but you travel at amazing speed.
problem: perfectly-ordinary "special relativity" says that if you were moving at very close to lightspeed, you could cover the 4.3 lightyears to alpha centauri in almost no time, as far as you were aware - your time stretches, and distances to faraway objects shrink. But then you would come back home and find that on earth, millions of years have passed and not only is everybody you knew long dead, your civilisation is long gone too. There'd be nobody to tell what you'd done and seen. Who'd go?

Love the video. I've read some of the remarks here & it amazes me how not many ppl are willing to think on their own. They repeat what they have been taught in school. For myself I like to question everything. Like time travel! We do not know the mysteries that abound in space. Periodic table is not complete maybe 2x more. Why is space so dark? What if C was not the ultimate speed limit. What if something else exceeds that. We wouldn't know bcuz we can't detect it. Can we see oxygen or hydrogen with the naked eye? What we see in our universe is also how large the atomic universe is. Visible universe=positive whereas the atomic universe=negative universe. We don't know how to detect things like dark matter, dark energy, the ether, etc. Negative energy is there we just don't know how to detect it yet. One more thing I would like to inspire ppl to think about designing an engine that we can use to achieve 28.5 million mph. At that speed we can get to the edge of our solar system in 2 weeks.
I'm so Exited on our future, Mars Colonization, Moon colonization, Science-fiction Flying Vehicles, Holograms, and the WARP that you mention on this video, Thanks Arvin Ash you gave me an Inspiration and knowledge
Why tho? Ppl jizz their pants in documentaries pf colonizing space but forget the sheer distances to suitable planezs in the goldilock zone or - even worse - that mars cannot hold an atmosphere which is why it looks like it is today. It was about forming life but then lost everything due to lack of mass. Why would you try to colonize mars? It is an economical nightmare.

I don't imagine I'll see interstellar travel happening within my lifetime BUT to think that a proof of concept for an interstellar warp drive could be viably demonstrated before I take my final, eternal dirt nap would be priceless!
What if I told you that that‘s exactly what Bob Lazar has witnessed? Watch his latest interview, he confirms the existence of a warp drive and there‘s also a detailed analysis of his body language by Derek van Schaik on RUclips, which implies that he‘s totally telling the truth. It blew my mind but apparently there is an existing warp drive, also with multiple video evidence
3:51 I have a question please answer if you can. On the side of the spaceship with a high mass would someone observing a person on that side see the person age slower? (due to the change in space also affecting time). And on the side of the spaceship with negative energy would an far away observer see the person standing there as aging faster?

Great job Arvin Ash, I teach Math and Science at the Home Schoo/University level. And intend to use your videos in the classroom. Well done. It is my hope to establish a Science and Engineering Academy in North Dakota.
Milos Jovic Bob literally talks about how the gravity is diffused from the reactor into the top of the ufos ‘sprinkler’ like mechanism at the top which disperses a heart shaped gravity field around the entire vehicle. Guess that’s how they’ll do it. Futurama also made an episode about how you stay in one place in a rocket and the universe moves around you and I’m pretty sure the stuff nibbler sh*ts out is element 115, which produces anti matter which if met with any gas (matter) creates gravity waves once used as fuel in a cyclotron 😊
The universe is energy, all the time everywhere.. so any point no matter how small possses as much energy as the entire universe. You could reverse that energy, locally which hopefully would be temporarily or else you'd rip space in wrong way, to get an effect similar to what we'd call negative energy. Basicly turning that energy against itself, nullifying it perhaps, im not 100% what would happen exactly and whether is good or bad.
Dear Arvin, tremendous video, very informative, loved it. Although Star Trek is a show and most people believe it is all fiction, there are many theories that became possible 200 to 300 years in the future, warp drives is one of them. My comment comes from curiosity of course and the fact that I'm designing a jet fighter for a video game but I'm stuck on the propulsion for it. Warp drive was my first choice but an experiment done I believe in 1972 in Germany where they tried to demonstrate how UFO moved around space (for the believers) where they created a saucer like ship in small scale, in the back of it they developed a device that can create empty space behind and the space behind that will push you forward at phenomenal speed. A tube around 30 yards or so (can't remember exactly) was build to fit the UFO and positioned at one end, they started and it worked, not sure why I haven't heard of it again. Is that the same thing as Warp Drive? Warp uses space in front and behind, the experiment only in the back. Sorry for the long message, just very, very and very curious. Subscribed :).

Thumbs up for the Dune reference! Great novel and movie.
Should we can say that space is god.....because god is one for everyone and shape less like space🤔
@@ArvinAsh There's a reason Frank Herbert's Dune novels are generally considered the greatest novels in all of science fiction. Dune was the direct inspiration for much of Star Wars - the entire fictional universe of Star Wars wouldn't even exist if it wasn't for Dune. While the 1984 Dune film leaves the viewer with the assumption that the Navigators could manipulate space time for space travel, this assumption is entirely incorrect. In the books, the ships themselves manipulate space time; so that's the part of the equation that your video here was discussing. But if you remember, in Dune, the most important and valuable aspect of space travel were the Navigators - humans that had evolved over hundreds of years using the spice known as Melange, which gave the Navigators short-term prescience abilities. This gave them small glimpses of the near-future, which allowed them to know when objects would be in the path of the traveling space ship that would result in a collision (stars, asteroids, comets, meteors, planets, moons, and other space debris), so they could adjust the trajectory of the space-ship accordingly to avoid the collision. That's why they were called Navigators. And that's the greatest problem of them all - you can't travel that fast unless you have an effective way to navigate so you can avoid collisions with the various types of objects you'll encounter during space travel - such as stars, asteroids, comets, meteors, planets, moons, etc. To this day the subject of navigation is one very few science fiction movies like to touch - the reason it's briefly mentioned in the first Star Wars film is because the concept of navigation was still very fresh in George Lucas' mind from the Dune novels.
@@Tekel-Upharsin But you are not traveling that fast. Traveling at or near light speed though space would do that but you are creating a pocket and moving in that with this drive. It pushes every thing else out of the way.

@Enlightened ☀️ the matter and energy in the distorted space wouldn't matter i think :)
the distortion is relative, and only those inside the ship could see the distortion - as a relative effect to their own frame of reference. within the distorted space, everything is distorted, so to objects within the distortion, no distortion occurs. and these theoretical phenomenon would occur at such speeds as Cx meaning that the amount of time anything spends distorted would be incredibly small, and likely too small for even those inside the ship travelling at warp-speeds to notice..

I think it is not exactly a propulsion. You gotta have another word for that P.
This was so well done, easy to follow and understand the actual concept, and the stumbling blocks needed to be overcome. Basically, the expansion of the universe proves that negative energy exists, we just don’t know what the heck it is at this point. Not only will it make a warp drive work, but it can create anti gravity, and artificial gravity, but it may take us a few hundred years to come up with the answers. Straight talk about science. A+
No it can't. It violates causality. No matter what, you can't get around that violation.
@@amberblakley9315 In a way it well, but the concept was to use the ionized particles in space to fuel a fussion rocket. The problem was to do that with the amount of particle. So you have to be going fast enough to get enough mass to produce a fussion reaction. In the way you are correct is that in vaccum engineering and the false vaccuum state the movement and density of particles effects the fabric of space.
@@Malamockq Not according to einstein he said time is not a thing. Time is not a dimension and time travel is impossible. The effects of time distortions or within time dialation.
@@clementvining2487 Appeal to authority fallacy. Besides, Einstein never said FTL is possible.
@@Malamockq Einstein said light is a universal speed limit. And he showed how hard it was to get to the speed of light. But also said that if nothing went faster than light the universe would not exist. He also showed in general relativity that space could expand faster than light. He showed that light going into a blackhole would move faster than the speed of light in normal space in a vacuum. He said that time is not a constant. Warp drive does not go against general relativity. And time travel is impossible because time is not a thing and time is not a dimension. There is nothing in Einstein's work that does not allow warp drive to be possible. Even with the possibility of time travel warp drive is possible because the ship does not move, the curved space around the ship moves. There is a difference no violation.

Surely you realize that "negative-energy" is about as real a concept as "negative-gravity" , so how's about examining "warp-drive" in relation to "effective neg.-energy" ? This is after all , how current gravity-defying mechanisms work , and they don't require ungodly amounts of power to function , either .
Tricking nature by finding work-arounds of her laws and limitations , is what our technology is based upon . Figuring out new technologies is just a matter of finding the "levers-of-control" .

Dear Eliasguitarred: At age 68 I tell you what matters. Nearly all professors are intelligent and nearly all are equally pompous.
However, an open mind can often trump over the most of intelligent minds - including your professor Alcubierre. For example: If I were in any of his classes I would confront him with the following. When we walk we walk through space. We don't stand still ordering all of space to come to us. Not even the most wealthiest of us, nor the most famous of us, has the ego to even speculate that all of the universe comes to us. Furthermore, this pompous theory assumes that all of the asteroids, comets, and other space junk are going to make way for our spacecraft of say about 500 million miles per hour (that's nearly 75% the speed of light). So, odds are, given enough travel at that speed - Ka Bang! That would be the result hitting just a basketball sized asteroid! And onboard radar wouldn't be able to warn you in time (to turn from it) because radar has to travel twice the distance and you are already traveling 75% speed of that radar - going one way!

Good for you!
@@ArvinAsh Thanks for the response! much like Alcubierre, I was inspired to study the universe when I was young by watching shows like TNG and Cosmos. One of the concepts that fascinates me is one put forth by Neil DeGrasse Tyson, the idea that we are they way by which the universe is able to know itself.
Beautifully explained with simplest way keeping complex mathematics aside.. Keep it up..
I suck at math,... But it does serve its purpose when you need calculations Boss.
I'm not shitting on your comment boss.
The energy required would probably just kill everything instead of powering the drive. Imagine trying to control the energy of 1000 hydrogen bombs. Nothing can hold that
Since beginning of time:
Physicist and Theorists: Yeah, theoretical it’s maybe possible but in praxis I see no chance how to apply it, because there are certain problems that cannot be solved!
Engineers: Ohh you actually say it’s possible? Ok then, hold my beer!
Also consider:
Mathematicians: We found this new equation! Too bad It's probably not applicable to anything in the real world...
Physicists: Neat! It solves the problem I was having!
Grammatically it's possible but there are many problems to be solved.

Ego Mush is not an inventor, he’s just another sleazy egotistical billionaire who thinks humanity is garbage. Same with Jeff Bezos. Same with the Virgin Galactic dude. When people realize this and learn to care about each other more than money and or fame, then we can evolve and move forward along with science that moves in leaps and bounds. Not just a trickle to keep a very few disgustingly rich while most of the planet just barely survives; that’s a lot of wasted talent. I believe it will happen eventually, after a whole lot more suffering, probably a nuclear apocalypse Or 2. Then we’ll learn and change if we want to survive. Until then keep wasting your intellect worshiping sleazy money grabbers. Sad.
@@downallyourstreets I can assure you Elon Musk and Jeff Bezo has contributed much more to humanity than you did. Both are not Inventors, they're innovators.
Elon Musk is currently trying to eliminate the use of fossil fuels while innovating other things while Jeff Bezo has donated billions to fight climate change.
Instead of hating on rich people. Tell me, what have you done to contribute to humanity?

Dont forget that the millenium falcon goes 9,000,000 times the speed of light
Heart of gold goes infinite speed
Enterprise; no it isnt, theres a loophole in your theory.
This is how people in the future lost their flying license
Thank you for this. The fact we detected gravitational waves just reinforces the feasibility of the drive.
yes yes yes exactly my point gravitational waves is the medium the dark energy sits on by manipulating a gravitational wave the medium you could observe the negative energy and using hypervconductive coils of absolute zero the quantum field flows in the dark energy like a fuel line instant warp drive startup
You mean that one little chirp they cherry picked out of 200k plus data sets ? arxiv.org/abs/1711.07421
Thank you for rationally discussing hypothetical concepts without any BS or sensationalization. You show that it's OK to entertain unusual ideas without getting caught up in it and accepting it as fact without any evidence.
It's a credit to the Star Trek writers. They tried to keep it as grounded in real science as they could. Everything from transparent aluminum,iPads, smartphones, Google Glass, etc, were all depicted in Star Trek before it was invented.
It's been argued that anything you can imagine can be done somehow, the logic being that imagining something physically impossible is itself physically impossible. Human imagination cannot concieve of anything impossible or physics defying because our brains are composed of matter from the universe which itself has rules. So everything you can think of is within the realm of universal possibility.
The trick is figuring out how to do it. Once we solve the energy problem, things like FTL will be small potatoes.
It's amazing how something you once couldn't even conceive can be explain by someone with just words. As none scientist, I think I understand it now. Thank you.
If you took some entangled photons of frequency f, blue shifted one photon to f + delta f, and redshifted the other photon to f - delta f, you might be able to store some gravitational potential energy between the entangled photons. You wouldn't need negative energy to create an Alcubierre field. You could create the field by continually generating entangled photons and centrifuging them.
Source? I’d like to read more on the subject. (Sorry, ik it’s been 2 years)
So you could only travel a fast as a photon.
If you can accelerate photons in a centrifuge you aren't dealing with photons anymore.
Amazing video! So much of science and mathematics crumbled down to simplicity. Appreciate the efforts you've put behind this.
Negative energy huh? Just grab Desync, he knows the power of the accelerated backhop
"So guys you wanna prop climb over this solar system real quick"
@@bman7346 alright now thats that we're just going to bypass these aliens and we should just grab one of their weapons to boost us.
Famous story of Prof. Stephen Hawkins. The time he made a cameo on Star Trek they gave him a tour around the set. When he entered the Engineering Section and showed him the warp drive, he told the crew, "I'm working on that."

I’ve been searching for years a video talking about the Alcubierre drive. Thank you
Thank you for liking this comment! I have already said this on another comment, on another video of yours, (which I still can’t believe you’ve answered to,) but I will say it here, once again: I only know about this channel since yesterday, but I’m already subscribed and waiting for your next video. I think this is the best science/physics-related one, and its already my favorite. Thank you very much!
Have a nice day/good night :)
It doesn't add up son, you 'where looking for years about a Alcubierre explanation video🤔'.. How?? You are just a little Jewish boy who is a couple of years old?! Are you the next generation super jew with the intelligence and knowhow about constructing and working out the theoretical explanation of this Alcubierre propulsion?? Because if you do, I'm gonna be ur biggest fan👀
This was covered on RUclips videos ranging from 3 years ago (in a less graphical way) by DNews, 2 years ago by AsteronX, 9 months ago by Joe Scott, ...... while a decent video, this video brings nothing new to the party. To search, you actually have to type the search in and press the enter-key. ;)
San Silvius i did find a few, but not with good explosions as in this one. Its not that the other ones are hard to understand, but this one really helped me get a better idea of how it works
wake up its my son in this picture...
If NASA ever approves. I am willing to scarifice myself as a test subject as long as I get to be in the ship.
The bad news is that no one will be allowed to call you Jean-Luc..
Watch Event Horizon, it might change your mind...
Can I come too?
This is the first time I've enjoyed a video so much without understanding a word! All I know is there's a chance that warp drive could become reality!!
Light slow, warp fast, need more science!
Plot twist: the Universe expanding due to some "dark energy"... is just pollution from alien warp drives expanding space all over the place.
This gibson dude who replied to you four times is an idiot, but this idea is actually brilliant and would make an incredible short story! I honestly smiled, and then said to myself "Huh" when reading your comment.
Aww snap, now we have universe warming due to all the warp drives.
Uh duh - why state the obvious?
Good one dude why didn't I think of that.
@Dawson Davis You are correct but did you know that after a time they redesigned the warp coils to prevent that.
“By the time you’d get back, I’ll have solved the problem of gravity”
It's like a bathtub drain. Planets might just appear when we go down the drain.
Interstellar reference?
Nova Star yes
Though funny enough that movie contains no FTL drive. The Endurance is a purely sublight spacecraft we have the technology to build today.
Monody that’s true. But after seeing the movie many times I finally realized that what the professor was talking about was solving the problem of gravity to get the huge space cylinder into space. Which was their underground facility at the time. It’s a little weird how they could build that on earth without knowing how to launch it. In real life without a gravity solution it would have been built in space.
The question isn't whether warping space and time is possible, the question is, how can we develop an energy source capable of achieving it.
A Dyson Sphere is the most likely candidate for that. Although then the question becomes "How do we safely put so much energy into a spaceship-sized warp drive and how the hell are we going to make such a small device generate enough output to actually warp space?"
@@Weerknuffelbeer I think what will happen is we will create warp points in space and ships will just get near them and utilize their fields for travel
It could be like halo. We fold space at two points to make the travel happen.
@@ghostiewhostie238 video games are based on Albert Einstein's theories. If you generate enough power you actually Bend time and space and yes you can bend two points together that are very distant and simply step through a Gateway and appear on the other side, some immeasurable distance away from where you started without any time passing whatsoever. That's what the term Warp means. Like taking your T-shirt holding it in half cutting a tiny hole in it where the folds meet and then when you open the T-shirt up you see that the holes are very far apart
And what about the energy required to slow down? In order to land on any Earth like planet? It could take months, even years, to slow down enough before even reaching the nearest solar system of such a planet! Braking any harder requires even more energy and could kill all on board! For example: When Star Trek in the 60's, showed Spock counting down from Warp 8, to Warp 1, to Sub-Warp, all within 30 seconds? Such braking, in reality, would have splattered them against those colorful consoles of the Starship Enterprise! And the ship itself might even be compacted like a stepped on empty soda can! Don't brake enough, and in short, you bypass your target - but if you spent most of your energy attaining Warp speed from Point A - you won't have nearly enough energy to do any required braking - once arriving at Point B! So, it's all so impractical - if not just outright impossible!
That was fascinating. Excellent episode. Nice to see Alcubierre's concept visualized
Imagine the insurance claim when a ship hits a rogue planet doing 9K light speed? That won't polish out
🤣🤣🤣🤣
The ship isn't moving 9000x the speed of light. In fact it isn't moving at all. Space is moving around it.
If this ever becomes a reality, one could assume the planet would be moved out of the way, or space distorted enough to prevent a collision.

@@cadkls I agree with you , many dumbasses on RUclips trying to be funny making "jokes" that make no sense
Thank you Mexico for coming up with this design. Love from Algeria!
Mexico's scientific community hounded Alcubierre for his paper and because of his still being a student. They weren't supportive at all.
Lawrence Krauss explains that the net energy of the universe is zero, and that we can get a universe from nothing. Our universe is a bubble of negative energy (or at least zero) relative to whatever is outside our universe. The cassimer effect made that pop into my mind. Could it be that we are existing "between the plates" so to speak.. And rather than our universe collapsing like the plates, our negative energy allows it to sustain and expand.
Thinking out loud.
Exciting something to look forward to possibilities are there👍 great video glad to find the channel👍
Do not worry about your difficulties in Mathematics. I can assure you mine are still greater. - Albert Einstein
Anonymous he also said “suck my balls, bitch”. I truly aspire to be a genius like him one day.
Einstein was horrible with math and always went running to the likes of Steinmetz or such. Eistein was just a poster boy stealing the glory of the real genius' that were suppressed.
Noware Man He also raped a bunch of students and professor from what I hear. It’s all coming out now on FOX. Apparently him and Louis CK both came on Einstein’s stomach..
Einstein, by his own admission, wasn't a very good mathematician, and had to visit his old Teacher, to help him with problems thrown up by his theories.

I hope that I live long enough, to see attempts at warp drives
It’s a stretch but I hope I live long enough to see a United federation of humans and aliens
@@samstuff8554 I would love to live at least longer so we could make contact with an advanced alien species.
@@MBulldog1979 I firmly believe that that there’s many out there but how would we communicate basically everything down to simple lines have one meaning to us but if your an alien you might have a completely foreign understanding of things like language or writing or even concepts like time it’s cool to see how different even human cultures are from each other there’s so many possibilities for intelligent life. Before we can get there tho we gotta fix a lot of problems like if we don’t fix global warming commit to denuclearization the Vulcans could show up in 500 years and find an uninhabited planet it’s a hard problem tho cause even if we commit to change why would any other country. China doesn’t care about global warming so we don’t care either and even if we all start working together we have no trust cause everyone has a history or lying. But I’m hopefully we will eventually come to our senses we just need better governments
Even elon and Jeff etc wont live long enough to see any of this. I will have to be satisfied knowing there is life out there somewhere. But will I get proof before I die ........
@@MBulldog1979 First thing our government would do is go to war with them because they don't have a "democratic" system.
Arvin, you knocked it out of the park as usual! I'm so happy you did a video on the Alcubierre drive, it's a fascinating topic.
Keep making these videos man, you're doing great
I saw on a Star Trek episode where Picard said we had stopped poverty, hunger and working for economic gains. Everyone was working for the betterment of mankind. Once we acheive this, then perhaps we will get that warp drive technology. Star Trek gave us the blueprints.
Yes, exactly! We are in the stone age in terms of technological achievements and there are other conscious beings out there who are millions of years ahead of us and have already figured this stuff out. I think they want to help us but they will not initiate contact until we become more civilized. I see it as we are the people of the north sentinel island and these conscious beings, who are the rest of the world in this analogy, who are millions of years more advanced than us are not coming near as we have not yet shown that we are peaceful. Quite sad honestly
If you watch first contact, Zefram invented and successfully tested his warp drive directly after WWIII. Warp drive gave humanity one voice and one purpose. Helped heal Earth and brought everyone together. Warp drive was the beginning of the end to want, money, poverty and hunger.
Lets hope
@@dereksevcik6595 in what planet do you live? war and violence are one of the engines of our tecnological development, what is staling our development is wishfull thinking and delusions, more civilized? we never lived in such a confort society and see here it is leading us? apathy and meaningless.
we need better social contracts, we need to recognize and accept our nature, maybe this conscious beings you talk about dosent come near because we are not trustworthy, we keep lying about ourselfs and creating tricks of perception to sooth our fears.
i bang my head reading those papers on warp drive and Dr Alcubierre's engine, now i finally understands it! - nice video!
8:04 What does it mean exactly when you say you can go 10X the speed of light?? Like lets say you want to travel to Proxima Centauri and it is mostly flat, unwarped spacetime between you and the destination. Black holes merging has taught us that gravitation waves propgate at the speed of light. The grid of spacetime "updates" at the speed of light. So how would this warp drive be able to fold the flat space time and zoom along faster than the gravitational waves from a black hole merger?
We'll have warp drive by 2063. Star Trek says so :)
BF31 Zefram Cochrane should already be born
BF31 and we Need a ww3 then.
So be it
Well, we would have been in space, if we had continued to go to space, but most of humanity is like nah, we care only about what is down here.
I will be 58 lol
Instead of "Yes please", you should have ended with "Make it so".
Yeah I thought about that . too cliche .
@@ArvinAsh That phrase requires authority over the matter. As it's a command.
Mr. Sulu set speed for warp factor six.
My brain: SHOWER THOUGHT ALERT! Why go faster when we can decrease the length of the trip?
Warp drive: Hello.
what you're talking about is akin to hyper drive or einstein rosen bridge. einstein rosen bridge is the thing Asgardians use for travelling. in that scenario the distance of trip. but here we are actually going faster. trip distance is still the same but you travel at amazing speed.
@@VisheshBangotra With the warp drive by compressing space ahead of you, you are basically shortening the way... You are falling forwards
@@rogercruz1547 I did not understand too much from the video but you explained everything, amen
problem: perfectly-ordinary "special relativity" says that if you were moving at very close to lightspeed, you could cover the 4.3 lightyears to alpha centauri in almost no time, as far as you were aware - your time stretches, and distances to faraway objects shrink. But then you would come back home and find that on earth, millions of years have passed and not only is everybody you knew long dead, your civilisation is long gone too. There'd be nobody to tell what you'd done and seen. Who'd go?

Love the video. I've read some of the remarks here & it amazes me how not many ppl are willing to think on their own. They repeat what they have been taught in school. For myself I like to question everything. Like time travel! We do not know the mysteries that abound in space. Periodic table is not complete maybe 2x more. Why is space so dark? What if C was not the ultimate speed limit. What if something else exceeds that. We wouldn't know bcuz we can't detect it. Can we see oxygen or hydrogen with the naked eye? What we see in our universe is also how large the atomic universe is. Visible universe=positive whereas the atomic universe=negative universe. We don't know how to detect things like dark matter, dark energy, the ether, etc. Negative energy is there we just don't know how to detect it yet. One more thing I would like to inspire ppl to think about designing an engine that we can use to achieve 28.5 million mph. At that speed we can get to the edge of our solar system in 2 weeks.
I'm so Exited on our future, Mars Colonization, Moon colonization, Science-fiction Flying Vehicles, Holograms, and the WARP that you mention on this video, Thanks Arvin Ash you gave me an Inspiration and knowledge
Just newer give up bro )
huh?
Why tho? Ppl jizz their pants in documentaries pf colonizing space but forget the sheer distances to suitable planezs in the goldilock zone or - even worse - that mars cannot hold an atmosphere which is why it looks like it is today. It was about forming life but then lost everything due to lack of mass. Why would you try to colonize mars? It is an economical nightmare. We will be sitton here for numerpus hundreds of years snd should try to manage ressources for surviving till technology has reached a level to build fixed orbit stations. If we survive that then maybe we can think about gardening on moons or other planets.

I don't imagine I'll see interstellar travel happening within my lifetime BUT to think that a proof of concept for an interstellar warp drive could be viably demonstrated before I take my final, eternal dirt nap would be priceless!
Bobcat665 yeah no it’s not possible
What if I told you that that‘s exactly what Bob Lazar has witnessed? Watch his latest interview, he confirms the existence of a warp drive and there‘s also a detailed analysis of his body language by Derek van Schaik on RUclips, which implies that he‘s totally telling the truth. It blew my mind but apparently there is an existing warp drive, also with multiple video evidence
This is the smartest theoretical talk I've ever seen
3:51 I have a question please answer if you can. On the side of the spaceship with a high mass would someone observing a person on that side see the person age slower? (due to the change in space also affecting time). And on the side of the spaceship with negative energy would an far away observer see the person standing there as aging faster?
Im glad to see some old topics brought back with the latest science
Not the latest: he doesn't mention Krashnikov's work.
He reduced the exotic matter requirements to zero tachyons and a few negative milligrams.
"Turns out there's been a lot of scientists that have been inspired by Star Trek" Science Fiction is an extremely underrated driving force in human ingenuity. Life mimics art, art mimics life.
First explanation about the subject I understood. Congratulations!
Great job Arvin Ash, I teach Math and Science at the Home Schoo/University level. And intend to use your videos in the classroom. Well done.
It is my hope to establish a Science and Engineering Academy in North Dakota.
If these UFO's are real, someone or something has already figured it out.
Bob Lazar was telling the truth
Milos Jovic true he was telling the truth all along
They could also have used a different method to get here than warp drives.
@Marc T. You clearly didn't see the videos released by the Pentagon then
Milos Jovic Bob literally talks about how the gravity is diffused from the reactor into the top of the ufos ‘sprinkler’ like mechanism at the top which disperses a heart shaped gravity field around the entire vehicle. Guess that’s how they’ll do it. Futurama also made an episode about how you stay in one place in a rocket and the universe moves around you and I’m pretty sure the stuff nibbler sh*ts out is element 115, which produces anti matter which if met with any gas (matter) creates gravity waves once used as fuel in a cyclotron 😊
Elon musk made me hold his beer after watching this
nani ?
I’m quite sure he did

The universe is energy, all the time everywhere.. so any point no matter how small possses as much energy as the entire universe.
You could reverse that energy, locally which hopefully would be temporarily or else you'd rip space in wrong way, to get an effect similar to what we'd call negative energy.
Basicly turning that energy against itself, nullifying it perhaps, im not 100% what would happen exactly and whether is good or bad.
Dear Arvin, tremendous video, very informative, loved it. Although Star Trek is a show and most people believe it is all fiction, there are many theories that became possible 200 to 300 years in the future, warp drives is one of them. My comment comes from curiosity of course and the fact that I'm designing a jet fighter for a video game but I'm stuck on the propulsion for it. Warp drive was my first choice but an experiment done I believe in 1972 in Germany where they tried to demonstrate how UFO moved around space (for the believers) where they created a saucer like ship in small scale, in the back of it they developed a device that can create empty space behind and the space behind that will push you forward at phenomenal speed. A tube around 30 yards or so (can't remember exactly) was build to fit the UFO and positioned at one end, they started and it worked, not sure why I haven't heard of it again. Is that the same thing as Warp Drive? Warp uses space in front and behind, the experiment only in the back.
Sorry for the long message, just very, very and very curious. Subscribed :).
