"Starship Congress - Day 3 | Icarus Interstellar" August 17, 2013 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ucyBMB_PWr8 Dr. White begins at time: 00:13:00 in the video. Ship images are shown at the end of his presentation, at time: 00:55:44. So... here are captures from the above Starship Congress 2013 presentation - to show what a real warpdrive starship would look like. Looks like the front section undocks (ahead of the pylons), to be a lander vehicle.
Now if we only had a way to make magical negative energy. Not impressed until you can make something based in reality.
^ Do you mean like this?... "Light Created from a Vacuum: Casimir Effect Observed in Superconducting Circuit" http://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2011/11/111118133050.htm That is the basis of the function of the mentioned "Quantum Thrusters" - which Dr. White states as necessary.
^ Does the calendar give additional information about his ship? Like its dimensions, or crew numbers, a ship name, etc.?
There's plenty of time to develop the exotic energy space-dilation drive system after they come up with a good color scheme for the ship.
I like the beige/tan color that it is. But, I would add a bit more of the red-brown trimming to it. I hope that color scheme carries over to a bright interior also.
