DARPA Funded Researchers Accidentally Discover The World's First Warp Bubble

Warp drive pioneer Dr. Harold G “Sonny” White has reported research results that he believes could theoretically manifest a warp bubble under laboratory conditions.

Warp drive pioneer and former NASA warp drive specialist Dr. Harold G "Sonny" White has reported the successful manifestation of an actual, real-world "Warp Bubble."

"To be clear, our finding is not a warp bubble analog, it is a real, albeit humble and tiny, warp bubble,"


Starfield is about to get real, holy heck

Wow.

The original concept of a warp drive made sense mathematically, but was nothing more than a dream because it required exotic matter.

The idea of creating a warp bubble in 2021 without any exotic matter, even one that is only micro scale, is nothing short of outstanding and a huge leap in technology.

Of course, this will need to be reviewed further, but if this is the real deal.........wow. Just wow. Pinch my balls, because I must be dreaming.
 
My short attention span made me unable to read the whole article, but did they really make a warp bubble or not? In the article they're a big vague about it.

"To be clear, our finding is not a warp bubble analog, it is a real, albeit humble and tiny, warp bubble," White told The Debrief, quickly dispensing with the notion that this is anything other than the creation of an actual, real-world warp bubble. "Hence the significance."

From the peer-reviewed journal.

"a micro/nano-scale structure has been discovered that predicts negative energy density distribution that closely matches requirements for the Alcubierre metric."

I'm going to say yes, although I haven't read the paper in great detail. This doesn't mean will be zipping over to Proxima Centauri in a few years, but if this is the real deal and it gets more funding, I'd like to think that we'd be on the cusp of a huge technological revolution.

Or, maybe I'm hyping this up too much because
This is something I never thought we'd discover in my lifetime.
 
These are the same guys who claimed to have built a working prototype of an EM drive only for independent researchers to find out that their test setup was completely bonkers.
I'm not holding my breath, Harold White is known for his shoddy work and hyperbolic claims.

Paper here

Well, they did the math and proposed two further experiments. The data is free. Some lab in China is 100% printing the devices right now. Looking foward to the transit time test.
 
"The Warp is a strange and terrible place. You might as well throw a traveller into a sea of sharks and tell him to swim home as send him through the Warp unprotected. Better it is not to let common man travel through the stars. Better still, let him not know such a thing is feasible."

From what I read around about this is that it's a grossly overexahgerated claim. They didn't create a warp bubble, nothing even close to an actual warp bubble even on microscopic scale. They simply created some similar energy distribution to proposed Alcubierre drive by using Casimir effect?

Basically, the entire thing doesn't move us anywhere closer to an actual warp bubble. Just some numbers fitted in proposed Alcubierre drive math when it comes to energy distribution.

And the guy behind this is supposedly a very shoddy figure too.

At least they didn't accidently create a macroscopic one.

EDIT:

a concept now more commonly referred to as the "Alcubierre/White Warp Drive."

This is the same organisation that spent years training bees to sniff out explosive devices which they planned to use in Afghanistan, only to have the generals tell them to fuck off. That's just the tip of their crazy iceberg. Annie Jacobsen wrote an excellent book about them called The Pentagon's Brain.
 
The Alcubiere Drive would be awesome if they could get it to work at practical energy levels. It's basically rolling downhill through space-time. If this really passed peer review, then maybe they might build a drive before I die.

To be fair peer-reviewed isn't always bulletproof. James Lindsay famously got that paper about 'canine rape culture' peer reviewed and published lmao.
