Clarifying NASA’s Warp Drive Program “Few people know this but NASA actually has a warp drive program underway at Johnson Space Center. A recent article on the program created some open-ended questions that needed to be answered. The article seemed to imply that Harold White (who heads the project) had signed non-disclosure agreements such that he could not discuss public-funded research. That’s a little unusual for NASA. So I sent […]

Warp Factor – A NASA scientist claims to be on the verge of faster-than-light travel: is he for real?, Popular Science “The device looks like a large red velvet doughnut with wires tightly wound around a core, and it’s one of two initiatives Eagleworks is pursuing, along with warp drive. It’s also secret. When I ask about it, White tells me he can’t disclose anything other than that the technology […]

Warp Field Mechanics 101, NASA JSC “Finally, an overview of the warp field interferometer test bed being implemented in the Advanced Propulsion Physics Laboratory: Eagleworks (APPL:E) at the Johnson Space Center will be detailed. While warp field mechanics has not had a “Chicago Pile” moment, the tools necessary to detect a modest instance of the phenomenon are near at hand.” The Warp Drive Could Become Science Fact, Space.com via Disovery […]
