Time to update Trek history- (warp) field drive coming soon?

First and formost, does this theory mentioned in the opening post yield a Grand Unified Theory or a Theory of Everything?

Secondly, has anybody heard of an experiment at Bexley which allegedly involved some kind of device that allegedly worked like a warp-drive?

Thirdly, I think this particular experiment will probably be more practical in developing artificial gravity for the time being than warping space. It's easier to generate 1g than generate god knows how many millions of g's to warp space like in Trek

An artificial gravity field implies the possibility of an anti-gravity field via the same tech. Anti-gravity implies a reduction of mass, reducing the amount of energy required to reach the speed of light, which has always been the Holy Grail of e=mc2. If true, this discovery could, quite possibly, lead to FTL travel, but they would still have to work on a way around the time-distortion problem, should it actually be proven to exist by a practical application of this new propulsion system.

You mean time would flow faster inside of the ship?


That is what Stasis pods are for!

But if the crew only experiences less time/more time than everyone else outside the ship, isn't that a form of time travel?

Any speed of travel is time travel. Just ask the ISS crew.

The real question is obviously, "In what way will the government inevitably abuse warp drive to take away our rights?".

I don't know if it is a 'Theory of Everything', but it was created to be a unifying theory of General Relativity and Quantum theories.

I don't know anything about a Bexley experiment.

This EHT (Extended Heim Theory) does not produce 'warped' space. It does not compress space-time ahead, and expand space-time behind - like the Miguel Alcubierre's warp drive. This EHT drive function would be used to produce an anti-gravity force, and open 'hyperspace' for FTL travel. This theory is more applicable to a flying saucer drive, than to a Star Trek drive. Think: Metaluna, C-57D, Jupiter 2, etc. - saucers. That's my understanding of it. And the OP should not have included the 'warp' term in the thread title.

I don't think he'll be back... looks from his last several recent posts he has become fixated on the awesomeness of Captain Robau! :lol:

And fourthly, YEEAAGGGGHH!!! ZOMBIE THREAD!!! RUNNNN!!!!


Seriously, 2.5 year old thread?

Actually, the thread hit the speed of light so it was only a few minutes... relatively speaking. ;)

Who cares if the thread dates to the stone age. The topic still has contemporary developments, and interest. See recent (July, 2010) "Coupled Gravitational Fields A New Paradigm for Propulsion Science" here:

^The mods care. Resurrecting old threads tends to be frowned upon.

I can't imagine why. I can't find a rule discouraging it in the Trekbbs FAQ. If the topic is interesting and people have new things to add to the discussion, there is nothing wrong with reviving a dormant thread.
 
They also discourage it because people end up replying to members that are long gone and no longer care.
 
So the gravitational field does not extend the distance of a traditional gravitational field made by an object with mass?
 
I wasn't aware the thread was resurrected- someone could have sent me a head's up PM ;) I have no issue with reviving old threads, especially threads of this nature with ongoing developments.

Yes, I've been having fun in the Robau thread :D Just giddiness due to the Trek movie franchise restart.


I can't vouch for the veracity of these videos, but they are articulate and entertaining summaries of recent research. Yes, tainted by the stigma of "anti gravity" and related verboten subjects of mainstream researchers.
