In 1788 it took 252 days for the first fleet to get to Australia from England. In the 1800’s the same trip took between 70-110days. Early 1900’s a month. Now a flight direct is between 16 to 20 hours.
And maybe in another 100 years, suborbital flights will be just as common as air travel now. A suborbital trajectory that cuts into space above the atmosphere could take no more than an hour to reach the other side of the world.
Stuff like this makes me tear up with what's possible, a warp drive that folds spacetime, if possible, would be amazing and I want so much to be around when or if it happens.
@@LimitlessSpaceInstitute This should help. Lots of updated information about breakthroughs and other things that can help with space exploration, energy sources inside space ships, Quantum 2D materials like Graphene and Graphene - Photonics, warp drive / warp bubble breakthroughs, the energy required has been updated, also other higher levels of innovation for emerging technologies. Think about Time Crystals with a Graphene sphere around them to keep them from melting, also allows them to move around and transfers the energy off the Time Crystals and onto devices in our homes and space ships and for slower than light propulsion when it matures with breakthroughs, and take that a step further to convert the electricity into Photonics as it comes off the Time Crystal and is sent to other devices and everything else. Graphene Spintronics, Graphene Twistronics, and Graphene Aerogels made in space to revolutionize the way we explore space. Graphene - Photonic Quantum Computers for accelerating breakthroughs in big algorithms, Quantum Simulations also to help and so much more. Quantum Sensors / Graphene Sensors are nice. The Quantum Internet is coming by 2030 using Quantum Teleportation of the Photon particles, and Quantum Teleportation will be used for advanced particle replicators to materialize things such as food replicators, clothes replicators, vehicle replicators, building / structure replicators, we're talking about way beyond 3D printing, though Quantum Teleportation would need to mature for this with breakthroughs, the small step is the Quantum Internet just like fiber optics to send data across particles except as Quantum Teleportation instead through the existing fiber lines, this can also be done through wireless and satellites so imagine extending the Quantum Internet to Mars and beyond our solar system very fast, how ever fast the Quantum Teleportation is so far and with breakthroughs later to go faster. I feel we need warp drives through before pushing the Metaverse which is a VR type of situation which allows people to ignore the environment around them and anything else going on in the real world which then ends up as the Matrix later on, and before people can just say that we can use telescopes to also determine if there is any life out there or Quantum Teleportation to say it for us... we really need to build warp drives first and find out physically in person by going to other planets in other solar systems throughout the galaxy to check on alien life just to say we have actually checked in person, and to also explore space beyond our galaxy to the universe and beyond. Who wants a telescope to say "no.. there isn't any aliens we checked with more powerful telescopes over time so that you didn't have to go there in person to find out", and then as we get stuck on the Earth being told the aliens don't exist, there is a chance they do though we were be kept down here on the Earth, so it is very important to get warp drives first and to prioritize it first in research. Have you also thought about Quantum Computers for navigation during warp? And Quantum Simulations to set the destination really fast on a star map before going warp. Dr. Erik Lentz with his new theoretical warp drives, uses positive energy known as Soliton particles and has done calculations to bring the energy required down to the size of one earth mass. Sonny White from Nasa has managed to bring the negative energy required down to 700 kg "the size of an elephant, vehicle, or voyager space probe" for the warp bubble. This could be way lower for both the positive energy and negative energy required, by now because of breakthroughs. They want to create a tiny 3D printed space craft to fit inside a tiny warp bubble for testing, and they mentioned that they won't do that until Nasa is done funding the research for the casimir cavity.

As society seems to get crazier and crazier, I periodically come back and watch this video and remind myself that maybe, just maybe, we can come out the other side and accomplish remarkable things. I've spent my life in the liberal arts... writing, design, photography, music... but have tremendous respect for the men and women working to solve these problems right now! Thank you for this.
Gene Roddenberry might be correct that at the end of civilization is when humanity's moment shines true. The Wheel built the first civilization The Alternator build the second(current and on a collapse course)civilization The Warp Engine might create the third civilization
@@srikkanthankI don't think you can, but I think you could clear the path in front using a powerful laser, or maybe something like a plasma field in front of the ship that pushes small particles aside, ofc due to the large speed and the time it takes to move the particles aside, it would have a massive scale.
Warping should have a gravitational bubble around the ship. That would solve the problem. Anything small would simple redirect when it touches the bubble.
@nthank A large magnetic field and a laser/EM beam strong enough to instantaneously ionize all matter in front of the vessel. The ionized gas/dust can then be manipulated by a magnetic field and can be either funneled into the ship's engines for fuel or be safely routed around it.
Remember, even if FTL is impossible, due to time dilation it's still possible for a sub lightspeed ship to go anywhere in the universe in the crew's life time. Just not in the lifetime of the people you left behind.
"You watch them age and you watch them die and you race the light wind across the sky, and the gods are silent when you ask them why, pushing the speed of light...."
this video is talking about a ship that doesn't move faster than the speed of light, rather it bends space to reach the destination, this avoids time dilation
Actually... about 94% of the observable universe is already out of reach at light speed. This is due to the expansion of space. So, we'll still need to develop warp drive.
I'm afraid not. Reaching a relevant portion of light speed is by itself probably more difficult than creating some kind of mumbo jumbo scifi space bending engine. Even at 90% Light speed you'd still only be roughly 2x time dilated, and that by itself is nearly physically impossible. Only a couple of things in the universe reach such a speed
Watched this absolute gorgeous video in the middle of the night and shed a tear. When did we as a species, stopped looking at the stars and always fighting over our differences?
We stopped looking at the stars when we lighted up our streets during the night. Most people in big cities have never truly seen the night sky in their entire lives.
@@yvan2563 For real. I moved from a big city to the Argentinian Patagonia. I'm amazed to be able to see even colors in the night sky with the naked eye!
Quite the other way around my friend, at some point when our only concern was survival, we stood up to better see predators and became aware of the infinite heavens strretching above us.
Videos like these really make me dream, all the incredible things humanity might see one day. Traveling that kind of distance in less than 6 Months sounds unreal, I cannot even imagine the scientific discoveries that a journey to such a distant location would bring forward@@LimitlessSpaceInstitute
We already have craft that can do this faster. "We already have the means to travel among the stars, but these technologies are locked up in black projects and it would take an act of God to ever get them out to benefit humanity… ...anything you can imagine we already know how to do."-Ben Rich, Director of Lockheed's Skunk Works
Anyways, as Jesus Christ… I find it baffling that physicists all across the world do not express interest in the only real method of interstellar travel: light propulsion. I work at NASA, and I am about to ask President Biden for a giant laser to propel a high temperature shape memory alloy torque tube-steered solar-sail to 20% the speed of light, reaching the Centauri’s in around 20 years, (if peak velocities check out with what God told me in my dreams.) Talk about “more than 20/20 vision babe,” because from my POV I even have the intellectual freedom to disprove the Big Bang, as the red-shift of photons across vast distance is not caused by the alleged expansion of the universe with matter moving away from us, but because the wavelengths of light stretch into longer wavelengths causing red-shift, as they follow the distance traveling through dips along the space-time continuum which appears longer than the true displacement across space alone. I just won the Nobel Physics Prize in a TH-cam comment, but no one cares because that is how simulations work. Any Ways, I will find My Way someday. - Love Avery
@@averyoto just wanna let you know that nobody cares because you're one of the many mentally ill people who think they're geniuses, not because of the simulation. Whether we're in a simulation or not doesn't affect people caring, their response to you would be simulated. Their response is to simply move on.
@@averyoto It is certainly worth a "starshot" lol... We could probably get those little buggers to go even faster than 20%, and could effectively release them this decade is NASA has a greater budget than a Southern Football College. But priorities am I right?
@@gabrielperez-ze9tk Well since I am Jesus Christ, I am actually going to auction a NASA Space Force for $2.738 trillion dollars next election. Trump’s “Super Duper Missiles,” 17 times faster than America’s normal missiles, will represent the customary unit (SDM’s) for sub-light speed measurements. God told me in a dream, 20% the speed of light was near the cap, so if I trust him, it will take just over 9000 SDM’s to reach vessel voyage velocities. If adopted, MemeLord can power level the DragonBallZ SuperSaijin reference, so astronauts can gauge light on a scale with feasible digits, which better represent our beloved reality’s/TV show’s sense of style in grading performance after longterm gravity training on any contenders, channeling their core-crush (Ariana Grande) cruising along those photon beams through the deep void. Thank You (Archangel) Gabriel, for your causation from God’s Will to meet old metric misnomers with our new American scope.
@@TheLordDinohi and that's also a reason why this takes a long time. If only a few nations get this level problems are again in sight. So no religion, any national governments or racial problems should exist. May also sound unrealistic. One possibility: never gonna happen! 😅
There is so much here on earth to explore. You don't even need to venture far to be someplace that feels other worldly "for you". Dream big, but don't miss what is happening right in front of you.
А потом мы вспоминаем, что последние 20 лет на МКС космонавтов и астронавтов доставляли ракеты России.

And people wonder why others love Star Trek so much. Not just for the Sci Fi aspect of it, but for what humans can actually achieve by putting all of our petty differences aside. My only sadness is, that it may not happen in my lifetime to see this if it's actually achieved.
@@Mahlak_Mriuani_Anatman Nobody said it wasn't. But it's an incredible tool for people to start dreaming about the impossible- and maybe make it happen. Innovation is caused by those allowing themselves to dream and as long as we keep on dreaming, we will keep innovating.
@@Mahlak_Mriuani_Anatmanimagination causes great progress, without dreams and imagination, humanity wouldn’t exist and there would be no progress at all…
Research engineer here. Long story short, start with instruments. Alcubierre-style drives require a type of negative energy field. The first attempts to create it in a lab will probably make only tiny ones. So, the first order of business won't be to create a field, but to create instruments capable of measuring tiny ones. On the bright side, independent confirmation of even a tiny warp-style negative energy field would be international news to say the least. Funding for the next stage should not be a problem. I estimate the odds of success at less than 10%, but that's not uncommon for research. As long as investors fully understand where the money is going and just how bad the challenges are, this is not a con game, it's just research. A lot more money has been spent on much worse ideas.
That's kinda what they've been doing and they have done laboratory tests: th-cam.com/video/ZZset72bHLI/w-d-xo.html The information they have deduced is that they do have some experimental evidence that *points* in the direction of possibility. Its not a real warp bubble but the effects are similar.
It's really not very promising, I agree. Realistically, traversing the stars will less involve going fast, and moreso involve modifying the crew to handle the distance. I predict that the first successful interstellar colony will be started by a von neumann probe full of human genomes. @@pablobro5944
It ain't called the cradle of civilization for nothing. We're still in our cot, just gazing outside. Voyager 1 and 2 was just us throwing a flashlight out of our cot.
This is also my dream! Sometimes at night I imagine what would be if I had chosen another way of life and work for kind of those projects. Who else is dreaming?
I know I cannot "do the math" to get us to space, or to our FTL drive. But I can envision as Leonardo Da Vinci did, a future of many things yet unseen. Sometimes the visionary sees further than the horizon, and brings the engineering and the technology along behind them. Sometimes someone dares ask "Why the hell not?!", or sees a path the "experts" cannot. Sure it might sound like technically impossible, or sci-fi fake science. But sometimes the lightbulbs go off over people's heads when somebody pushes the envelope. I'm "that guy". The late James Doohan (Scotty from "Star Trek") once made up an explanation of how warp-drive worked for a fan convention. He was no physicist, mathematician, or engineer--it was all fake! But some science-types were in the audience, scribbling notes. Then they went back to their labs and offices and starting analyzing the theory. They figured out, much to everyone's surprise, that fundamentally there were no flaws in the actor's fake explanation! He had science types staring at blackboards going "Freaking really??" And sometimes for a moment I am on the bridge of the first FTL manned spacecraft heading out of our solar system. "Captain's Log, July 20th, 2069. I'm sure the first astronauts to walk on the Moon would be amazed at what we're about to do, and proud that we're starting our journey on the 100th anniversary. I'd also like to have Albert Einstein aboard, although the faster-than-light part might upset him just a bit..." Ad Astra, Ad Futura.
I'm crying watching this, Dr. White. I remember years ago first finding and reading your research papers on the warp field interferometer tests and commentary on improving energy efficiency on fuel supply for the Alcubre drive after that and then reading that the negative energy requirement is actually not necessary and that we can actually do this with real energy capacitors! THEN there was that paper that came out that explored optimal warp field configurations to further improve fuel efficiency!!! It all just seems to be getting closer and closer every year and it's truly exciting! I only wish I could help somehow.

This sent tingles down my spine. Just the idea of travelling such vast distances is truly amazing. Once we are able to sever our reliance on Earth for our survival the future of our species will be much more certain.
@@_martian101 Is that true though? We have certainly become more powerful and more intelligent. Those are both qualities that we could use to destroy ourselves or to grow. Considering that our populations have been steadily increasing I would suggest that the latter is the case.
@@donaldstrachan2750 it's easier to destroy than to build, so yeah humanity will always tend to destroy themselves, intelligence mixed with greed and ego is the indicator of self destruct capability, today destroying the world is as easy as press a button, in the future wiping out the entire human race will be even more easier despite they spread across many galaxies.
@@_martian101 I hear what you are saying. For sure our ability to do so has vastly increased. We could wipe ourselves out entirely within a few days/weeks probably. However, that is not what has happened in reality. In reality, the human species has been consistently growing since our very earliest beginnings.
Isnt it insane that even when flying a space bending starship you still need 5 months to reach another Star!? Really gives you a better underderstanding on how vast the distances in our universe really are. Also amazing production really loved it!
This implies that the IXS Enterprise has a speed of 11c the speed of light. To give you an idea, the NX-01 Enterprise from Star Trek with Warp 5.2 can reach 130c the speed of light while the USS Voyager (NCC-74656) can reach Warp 9.975 which is 5126c the speed of light.
First of all, a round of applause to the people that put together this video. It was truly inspiring and informative. I love how a sense of scale is driven home with each propulsion drive and how long the journey would take. Carl Sagan would be proud.👍👍👍
6 months to Alpha Centauri is unbelievable to think about, space is so big but to think of human influence extending that far already in the cosmos is inspiring - our first interstellar foothold
That's roughly 4.367 LY in 6 months time. So, call it an even 9 LY traveled per year. It would STILL take roughly THREE THOUSAND YEARS to get to the center of just our own galaxy. Space is unfathomably massive.
@@johnisdoe As a fellower humaner I do believe whe are allowed to influence the cosmos to our will, be it benevolent or evil. And weak under-achievers like yourself will not stop humanity in doing so.
@hodisfut someone doesn't know about the secret space program ... We have already traveled all over our solar system and beyond. And have been since the 50s. Its sad that's they're doing this behind our back but that's why the disclosure is coming out more and more every day it seems.
-Thought this was just another CGI short film (the animators should be proud it is absolutely beautiful) but then I see it's a real institute. You go girl, chase that warp bubble.
No. Why fashion will be faster than nuclear? 😂 Both are equal. Also it is wrong estimation. Such ships have low acceleration (as example Zeus nuclear locomotive which Russia building - it need 100 days to reach Moon from Earth’s orbit), but they have permanent acceleration, each second. So, you can launch such locomotive and wait some time until it will not accelerate to appropriate speed. In result you can reach Saturn not for 2 years, but few months. Warp engine just impossibly.
Crazy, gives me a feeling unlike any movie, a combination of proud for what humanity can and is doing, excitement for the future and even a bit of fear.
This is extremely well done! Thank you for taking the time to share this beautiful work of art with those who love space and dreaming of our future among the stars
Watching the original Star Trek series back in the 70s & 80s as a weee lad, I would stare through the tv screen imagining what I'd be doing in an interstellar society. Seeing this video as a 54 year old fella, I'm still staring through screens, as I watch/hear the myriad of future possibilities, imagining what I'd be doing in that reality. This was a wonderfully edited video & narration. The visuals were surreal. Cheers, & keep us staring through screens, imagining!
This WILL NOT be possible on this lifetime and probably not on the next either. But the other guy that adds to that, that we will be extinct withing a century because of war and overpopulation is a zealot
Absolutely gorgeous animations, even the idea of that ship that plays with space around it is cool (i know that it`s pretty old, some nasa concepts have been around for a while), makes me think of situations like "Guys, who wants to go to Enceladus with me? You have 40 minutes to pack your things and then we'll be there in 5 minutes"
okay...here's what we do: we build a large spacecraft section (cylindrical, spins for artificial gravity). then, we build at least 4 Fusion engine modules and align them like a "+" at the back of the spacecraft. then, we build a protective shield at the front of the spacecraft, since the goal for this idea is to make the spacecraft go at least 10% the speed of light. at this speed, unprotected spacecraft would be literally eroded away by microdust particles. the spacecraft could house a maximum of 10,000 people, but the starting passenger count is anywhere from 100-200. This spacecraft, theoretically, could reach proxima centauri in 50 years time. We dont need an alcubiere drive. we just need to keep on adding fusion engines and shielding systems until the travel time gets to around 5-10 years. NASA, just give me a call and I can get you a design that will get you to alpha centauri in a reasonable timeframe.
Breathtaking footages and illustrations. Hope this film and their creators get a lot of attention and the appreciation its deserves. Come on Algorithm, DO SOMETHING
There's something poetic about the time it *could* take to Proxima Centauri, the fact that it could be similar to that of humans a couple thousand years ago, if they wanted to travel a long distance on Earth. Things really do come full circle eventually.
I came across a 2008 White Paper a few days ago regarding the emulation of mass via lasers confined within an electromagnetic torus. Unfortunately the paper was rather ambiguous as to points of convergence, number of lasers required for a theoretical model, or if any gaseous medium was required for interaction (ie. H2 etc), still while the concept read as unintended to be considered in application of "Warp Drive", it was still incredibly interesting.
@@PuckLokin "A hell of a lot of them" is exactly why I expressed disappointment in the paper not making any mention of any gaseous medium. From what little I can remember the Paper unfortunately leaned far more into vague theoretical concepts as opposed to any concept of application.
My grandfather was a proud member of the NERVA program decades ago. He was an amazing engineer and a great man who kindled my passion for science and space. The NERVA program was the thing he was most proud of and he told me that someday that technology would get dusted off and used again.
We ought not to delude ourselves, because 'SPEED' is but the first hurdle in this quest for space travel ! Having heard what it takes to relocate and occupy a planet other than Earth, it's best not to delude oneself with thinking one can travel in one's lifetime in the 21st. century to another planetoid enjoy a meaningful life .. !
Noone thinks any of the above will be done in 21st century. Even humans can't advance that fast. But the fact that only a century after general relativity we have come this far and start to seriously discuss functional warp drive is a testiment to our capabilities as a species... If we keep going like this Starships like on this video may be possible in 2-3 centuries or so... which is still incredible fast!
This is one of the best visualizations of faster than light speed comparisons that I have ever seen! Great work guys. And just so you know, the later concept from an engineering perspective is much closer to actuality than anyone currently thinks. The problem is that we may end by our ignorance and self-indulgent ego before we acquire the capability of travelling around our galactic neighbourhood. A cosmologist from the 1970s who was in the SETI discussions once theorized that the reason we do not see evidence of alien intelligence is that when a civilization achieves the capability of destroying itself instantly, ... well it does because there is a self destructive feature of intelligence which is neurosis. Societies fall under a neurotic self-centred self-cannibalizing event that destroys the intelligence from existence. This is why we maybe currently at the end of our existence with the never-ending war machines we have built.
For real. They act like the warp drive is just around the corner and all we need is a little bit more cooperation to make it happen...no no way our technology is hundreds if not thousands years away from tech like that I wish but that just so much seems like Year 3,000 technology at best
Alcubierre drive is theoretical and not actually proven to work. Its working physics is beyond our current technological capabilities by centuries if ever.
Yep, and sadly it will not work. Even if the weird physics to make it work somehow is solved. The energy cost is so stupidly high the craft is unable to carry the fuel or reactor that's needed to make it work - here I talk about nuclear fuel meaning Tritium + He3 or better. No reactor that's have to be fitted inside a ship can be made to work on such an energy level either. Not even if one bring a tame black hole - which would be the ultimate energy converter. It's the energy equivalent of many +10 000 of stars at the same time, and to have that process running for the entire trip. So it's a big dream, but it simply will not happen well except........ If humanity do extremely well and we become a Kardashev III civ in the far far future, then those distant descendants of us might do it once or twice just to show off. ...or if they find they have urgent need to look at something new or unexpected. But for our dreams of going elsewhere and colonise new worlds, we better take better care of our backyard first, it will be only a small fraction of a ‰ of the very best and suitable that can go, and only on slow boat. And possibly only as stored templates, to be reconstructed on arrival. To travel physically in your own body look quite unlikely. The ideas about freezing and other various ideas of keeping the passengers in long term dormant state fail to address the problem of radiation that will break down both the genetic code, and over time also cause damage to vital enzymes and hormones - while the repair mechanisms for those will be frozen and dormant as well and so unable to repair the damage. So perhaps we humans can piggyback in a memory storage array, and perhaps have replicants of ourselves made at any destination - which would be cool. But the universe belong to the machines, and the idea of cute little spaceships with windows and a star ship captain that say 'engage' and add a dramatic hand gesture...... is by far the least probable scenario we'll ever see.
@@yashpatel261 we need to be at least a type one or two civilization in the "Kardashav scale" to even consider something like a warp drive , currently , we are a 0.00002 type of civilization , too primitive because we still using fossil fuels , and a warp drive isn't even possible , you'll need at least the power and the mass of a black hole reduced to fit in a spaceship , it's impossible with the current tech !
It's almost impossible to grasp within a person's mind just how far away our closer star systems are. Thankyou sooo much for this video. We WILL most certainly need to go very fast indeed.
But how to slow down? I always loved this theory but even in science fiction shows I always wondered, would coming out of "jump speed" or whatever we would call it, actually return us to the original speed we were at when jump was activated?
The ship is staying in place, while it's the space moving around the ship. Soo if we want to halt, just stop making the space move, it should all come back to normal. I guess.
When I took a class on relativity in college, and my prof taught about time dialation... he said we're never to go there ...and back.. I almost cried, believing that Star Trek could be true.
just because FTL is impossible doesn’t mean we can’t make it there and back in a human lifetime we just need to go incredibly fast (not quite as fast as the ship in this video, but fast enough)
@@klixx_yt2396But it still violates causality and local simultaneity. Unless you can show me a proof demonstrating how this violating is still within the bounds logic and fixing all the violations of contemporary physics, then I simply have to claim it as pseudoscience.
i've heard that satisfying the alcubierre equations would require us to find some source of *negative mass* - not to be confused with "antimass" which actually still measures positive values of mass and therefore gravitation. As it so happens, a source of negative mass/gravitation would, according to the math at least, enable us to stabilize wormholes. I think it's actually quite believable that we might someday gain access to alcubierre drives that allow us to approach significant portions of the speed of light *but* that interstellar travel would be handled by wormholes. either way... I would love to see it happen in my lifetime.
That's the biggest issue, we have the theory, just haven't found this mysterious energy source. The thing is, we know something exists, because of the latest experiments at CERN, hence why we need a bigger particle accelerator. If we can observe clashes with particles for longer, I think we could figure out the anti mass conundrum. It's so fascinating to describe in one comment.
@@DrumToTheBassWoop i sure hope it's something that's always been right under our nose but for our inability to detect it, for lack of knowing what to look for. I wish we could build a particle accelerator in earth's moon though...! Imagine that: a particle accelerator over THREE THOUSAND KILOMETERS wide just a few dozen meters under the lunar surface, isolated from external radiation sources by all that inert regolith...!
Even tho FTL jump is indeed impossible right now due to our knowledge of physics but who knows in the future humanity will achive it because remember when Airplanes and Computer was an impossible thing in the past but look today we are using it in our daily life
We born too early to explore the cosmos. Just if this somehow is achievable, could change EVERYTHING. I really crossfingers everytime space x launch a rocket (even more with starship) this are just crazy big steps for us, for a possible golden-age of travel across the universe and finding new things out there. One day we'll make it.
In 1788 it took 252 days for the first fleet to get to Australia from England. In the 1800’s the same trip took between 70-110days. Early 1900’s a month. Now a flight direct is between 16 to 20 hours.
A very good point. I think if we really saw what technology is behind the scenes right now in governments and regimes it would blow our minds away!
And maybe in another 100 years, suborbital flights will be just as common as air travel now. A suborbital trajectory that cuts into space above the atmosphere could take no more than an hour to reach the other side of the world.
100 is too much, @@hunnyjar8937

This should help. Lots of updated information about breakthroughs and other things that can help with space exploration, energy sources inside space ships, Quantum 2D materials like Graphene and Graphene - Photonics, warp drive / warp bubble breakthroughs, the energy required has been updated, also other higher levels of innovation for emerging technologies.
Think about Time Crystals with a Graphene sphere around them to keep them from melting, also allows them to move around and transfers the energy off the Time Crystals and onto devices in our homes and space ships and for slower than light propulsion when it matures with breakthroughs, and take that a step further to convert the electricity into Photonics as it comes off the Time Crystal and is sent to other devices and everything else.
Graphene Spintronics, Graphene Twistronics, and Graphene Aerogels made in space to revolutionize the way we explore space.
Graphene - Photonic Quantum Computers for accelerating breakthroughs in big algorithms, Quantum Simulations also to help and so much more.
Quantum Sensors / Graphene Sensors are nice.
The Quantum Internet is coming by 2030 using Quantum Teleportation of the Photon particles, and Quantum Teleportation will be used for advanced particle replicators to materialize things such as food replicators, clothes replicators, vehicle replicators, building / structure replicators, we're talking about way beyond 3D printing, though Quantum Teleportation would need to mature for this with breakthroughs, the small step is the Quantum Internet just like fiber optics to send data across particles except as Quantum Teleportation instead through the existing fiber lines, this can also be done through wireless and satellites so imagine extending the Quantum Internet to Mars and beyond our solar system very fast, how ever fast the Quantum Teleportation is so far and with breakthroughs later to go faster.
I feel we need warp drives through before pushing the Metaverse which is a VR type of situation which allows people to ignore the environment around them and anything else going on in the real world which then ends up as the Matrix later on, and before people can just say that we can use telescopes to also determine if there is any life out there or Quantum Teleportation to say it for us... we really need to build warp drives first and find out physically in person by going to other planets in other solar systems throughout the galaxy to check on alien life just to say we have actually checked in person, and to also explore space beyond our galaxy to the universe and beyond.
Who wants a telescope to say "no.. there isn't any aliens we checked with more powerful telescopes over time so that you didn't have to go there in person to find out", and then as we get stuck on the Earth being told the aliens don't exist, there is a chance they do though we were be kept down here on the Earth, so it is very important to get warp drives first and to prioritize it first in research.
Have you also thought about Quantum Computers for navigation during warp? And Quantum Simulations to set the destination really fast on a star map before going warp.
Dr. Erik Lentz with his new theoretical warp drives, uses positive energy known as Soliton particles and has done calculations to bring the energy required down to the size of one earth mass.
Sonny White from Nasa has managed to bring the negative energy required down to 700 kg "the size of an elephant, vehicle, or voyager space probe" for the warp bubble.
This could be way lower for both the positive energy and negative energy required, by now because of breakthroughs.
They want to create a tiny 3D printed space craft to fit inside a tiny warp bubble for testing, and they mentioned that they won't do that until Nasa is done funding the research for the casimir cavity.

- ship goes 5% speed of light
- hits pebble
- interstellar supernova
I always wonder about these light speed, warp speed etc.. How would the maneuver around the rocks and small debris floating in the space...
@@srikkanthankI don't think you can, but I think you could clear the path in front using a powerful laser, or maybe something like a plasma field in front of the ship that pushes small particles aside, ofc due to the large speed and the time it takes to move the particles aside, it would have a massive scale.
Warping should have a gravitational bubble around the ship. That would solve the problem. Anything small would simple redirect when it touches the bubble.
Aynen öyle.
@nthank A large magnetic field and a laser/EM beam strong enough to instantaneously ionize all matter in front of the vessel. The ionized gas/dust can then be manipulated by a magnetic field and can be either funneled into the ship's engines for fuel or be safely routed around it.
Remember, even if FTL is impossible, due to time dilation it's still possible for a sub lightspeed ship to go anywhere in the universe in the crew's life time. Just not in the lifetime of the people you left behind.
"You watch them age and you watch them die and you race the light wind across the sky, and the gods are silent when you ask them why, pushing the speed of light...."
this video is talking about a ship that doesn't move faster than the speed of light, rather it bends space to reach the destination, this avoids time dilation
Actually... about 94% of the observable universe is already out of reach at light speed. This is due to the expansion of space. So, we'll still need to develop warp drive.
@@yojimbo3681 true. I totally forgot about that
I'm afraid not.
Reaching a relevant portion of light speed is by itself probably more difficult than creating some kind of mumbo jumbo scifi space bending engine.
Even at 90% Light speed you'd still only be roughly 2x time dilated, and that by itself is nearly physically impossible. Only a couple of things in the universe reach such a speed

I find it baffling that physicists all across the world do not express interest in the only real method of interstellar travel: light propulsion.
I work at NASA, and I am about to ask President Biden for a giant laser to propel a high temperature shape memory alloy torque tube-steered solar-sail to 20% the speed of light, reaching the Centauri’s in around 20 years, (if peak velocities check out with what God told me in my dreams.)
Talk about “more than 20/20 vision babe,” because from my POV I even have the intellectual freedom to disprove the Big Bang, as the red-shift of photons across vast distance is not caused by the alleged expansion of the universe with matter moving away from us, but because the wavelengths of light stretch into longer wavelengths causing red-shift, as they follow the distance traveling through dips along the space-time continuum which appears longer than the true displacement across space alone.

Research engineer here. Long story short, start with instruments.
Alcubierre-style drives require a type of negative energy field. The first attempts to create it in a lab will probably make only tiny ones. So, the first order of business won't be to create a field, but to create instruments capable of measuring tiny ones.
On the bright side, independent confirmation of even a tiny warp-style negative energy field would be international news to say the least. Funding for the next stage should not be a problem.
I estimate the odds of success at less than 10%, but that's not uncommon for research. As long as investors fully understand where the money is going and just how bad the challenges are, this is not a con game, it's just research. A lot more money has been spent on much worse ideas.
That's kinda what they've been doing and they have done laboratory tests: th-cam.com/video/ZZset72bHLI/w-d-xo.html
The information they have deduced is that they do have some experimental evidence that *points* in the direction of possibility. Its not a real warp bubble but the effects are similar.
all right, so we just need to find a magical force that by coincidence will behave in just the way we want it to. very promising

I know I cannot "do the math" to get us to space, or to our FTL drive. But I can envision as Leonardo Da Vinci did, a future of many things yet unseen. Sometimes the visionary sees further than the horizon, and brings the engineering and the technology along behind them. Sometimes someone dares ask "Why the hell not?!", or sees a path the "experts" cannot. Sure it might sound like technically impossible, or sci-fi fake science. But sometimes the lightbulbs go off over people's heads when somebody pushes the envelope. I'm "that guy".
The late James Doohan (Scotty from "Star Trek") once made up an explanation of how warp-drive worked for a fan convention. He was no physicist, mathematician, or engineer--it was all fake! But some science-types were in the audience, scribbling notes. Then they went back to their labs and offices and starting analyzing the theory. They figured out, much to everyone's surprise, that fundamentally there were no flaws in the actor's fake explanation! He had science types staring at blackboards going "Freaking really??"
And sometimes for a moment I am on the bridge of the first FTL manned spacecraft heading out of our solar system. "Captain's Log, July 20th, 2069. I'm sure the first astronauts to walk on the Moon would be amazed at what we're about to do, and proud that we're starting our journey on the 100th anniversary. I'd also like to have Albert Einstein aboard, although the faster-than-light part might upset him just a bit..."
Ad Astra, Ad Futura.
I stopped dreaming, and started my degree in engineering. It's never too late dude. 😎
I'm crying watching this, Dr. White.
I remember years ago first finding and reading your research papers on the warp field interferometer tests and commentary on improving energy efficiency on fuel supply for the Alcubre drive after that and then reading that the negative energy requirement is actually not necessary and that we can actually do this with real energy capacitors! THEN there was that paper that came out that explored optimal warp field configurations to further improve fuel efficiency!!! It all just seems to be getting closer and closer every year and it's truly exciting!
I only wish I could help somehow.

Also it is wrong estimation. Such ships have low acceleration (as example Zeus nuclear locomotive which Russia building - it need 100 days to reach Moon from Earth’s orbit), but they have permanent acceleration, each second. So, you can launch such locomotive and wait some time until it will not accelerate to appropriate speed. In result you can reach Saturn not for 2 years, but few months.

You have 40 minutes to pack your things and then we'll be there in 5 minutes"
We certainly could not do this without Erik Wernquist. Collaborating together made this master piece unique! We appreciate the kind words.
the ftl ship is based off a nasa concept vessel using alcubure warp drive

THIS IS THE MOST INSANE THING I'VE EVER SEEN.
I cant put into words how this 4 minute film felt for me, it was... othewordly.
The world is waiting for a new dream to capture our cooperation. I want to live to be part of this future.
I am certain this is inspiring the past, present and emerging scientists to make this possible.
What I like about this video is it makes you think and conceptualize the possibilties, and that results in getting it done... We want it done!
such an awesome video and great narration Sonny!!
okay...here's what we do: we build a large spacecraft section (cylindrical, spins for artificial gravity). then, we build at least 4 Fusion engine modules and align them like a "+" at the back of the spacecraft. then, we build a protective shield at the front of the spacecraft, since the goal for this idea is to make the spacecraft go at least 10% the speed of light. at this speed, unprotected spacecraft would be literally eroded away by microdust particles. the spacecraft could house a maximum of 10,000 people, but the starting passenger count is anywhere from 100-200. This spacecraft, theoretically, could reach proxima centauri in 50 years time. We dont need an alcubiere drive. we just need to keep on adding fusion engines and shielding systems until the travel time gets to around 5-10 years. NASA, just give me a call and I can get you a design that will get you to alpha centauri in a reasonable timeframe.

Thank god. Finally a comment that is in within the realms of reality
The quote of Carl Sagan was insane!!!
If only we could be united, our imagination will be our future...
Super film congratulations Limitless Space Institute
Breathtaking footages and illustrations. Hope this film and their creators get a lot of attention and the appreciation its deserves. Come on Algorithm, DO SOMETHING
We hope to gain the attention you mentioned. Thank you for the support.
This made me emotional in a good way. Very inspiring. I loved the warping effect around the ship
First time I saw a picture of IXS Enterprise, my mouth dropped! Outstanding video. I'm glad you guys are pushing for these projects to be done!
Good to know I wasn't the only one.😮
Space travel is literally the most exciting and important thing we can ever accomplish.
No, survival as a species in the near future is.
These are some wonderful graphics!
Excellent video, keep us informed about the news, success for the LSI and the channel! Greetings from Brazil!
This is such an amazing concept and I wish to see this in my lifetime.
Will not happen. For those of us on this little blue marble right now, we are tethered to this planet. Almost seems like we should take care of it.
you will
@@Mr__Singularity definitely not lmao
@@antigenesi That's your opinion. I am pretty sure(not 100%, but let's say 90%) that we will have FTL tech before 2050
@@karlmonet who would have said 80 years ago that we are about to build quantum computers?
There's something poetic about the time it *could* take to Proxima Centauri, the fact that it could be similar to that of humans a couple thousand years ago, if they wanted to travel a long distance on Earth. Things really do come full circle eventually.
Just imagine what it would be like thousands of years into the future, humans or humans descendants traveling ftl across this galaxy.
Probably the best video of its kind I've ever seen. Clear, simple, insightful and inspiring.
I came across a 2008 White Paper a few days ago regarding the emulation of mass via lasers confined within an electromagnetic torus. Unfortunately the paper was rather ambiguous as to points of convergence, number of lasers required for a theoretical model, or if any gaseous medium was required for interaction (ie. H2 etc), still while the concept read as unintended to be considered in application of "Warp Drive", it was still incredibly interesting.
Merci. The Mermaid.
Did it include the emulation of negative mass? You absolutely can emulate mass with photons, it just takes a hell of a lot of them.
@@PuckLokin "A hell of a lot of them" is exactly why I expressed disappointment in the paper not making any mention of any gaseous medium. From what little I can remember the Paper unfortunately leaned far more into vague theoretical concepts as opposed to any concept of application.
Someone is actually working on turning light into mass.
@@robertwalhout8982 Would love to read the research if you have any links?
My grandfather was a proud member of the NERVA program decades ago. He was an amazing engineer and a great man who kindled my passion for science and space. The NERVA program was the thing he was most proud of and he told me that someday that technology would get dusted off and used again.
At least the NERVA program is within the realms of reality
До мурашек....
We ought not to delude ourselves, because 'SPEED' is but the first hurdle in this quest for space travel !
Having heard what it takes to relocate and occupy a planet other than Earth, it's best not to delude oneself with thinking one can travel in one's lifetime in the 21st. century to another planetoid enjoy a meaningful life .. !
#meganfoxkun #Ethereumtrillion
Noone thinks any of the above will be done in 21st century. Even humans can't advance that fast. But the fact that only a century after general relativity we have come this far and start to seriously discuss functional warp drive is a testiment to our capabilities as a species... If we keep going like this Starships like on this video may be possible in 2-3 centuries or so... which is still incredible fast!
Great video. As a sci-fi writer, this inspires me.
Outstanding video. This is a must share. Thank you. Subscribed.
Thank you for the support!
Thank you, this was wonderful I will do my part giving the message to my kids. Curiosity must not end.
I can just imagine future descendants rediscovering this video in a museum for a world that lived before the light barrier was broken.
Directed and animated by Erik Wernquist, I knew it the moment it started. He's the mastermind who made Wanderers.
This awesome video looks like an intro to a blockbuster sci-fi film in the same line as "Interstellar" ...
I absolutely love the graphics , animation and the narration. Keep up the great work.
Really clean and fleshed out animation, props to the team.
This is one of the best visualizations of faster than light speed comparisons that I have ever seen! Great work guys. And just so you know, the later concept from an engineering perspective is much closer to actuality than anyone currently thinks. The problem is that we may end by our ignorance and self-indulgent ego before we acquire the capability of travelling around our galactic neighbourhood. A cosmologist from the 1970s who was in the SETI discussions once theorized that the reason we do not see evidence of alien intelligence is that when a civilization achieves the capability of destroying itself instantly, ... well it does because there is a self destructive feature of intelligence which is neurosis. Societies fall under a neurotic self-centred self-cannibalizing event that destroys the intelligence from existence. This is why we maybe currently at the end of our existence with the never-ending war machines we have built.
We can go fast in space no doubt. Warp drive is far from reach.
For real. They act like the warp drive is just around the corner and all we need is a little bit more cooperation to make it happen...no no way our technology is hundreds if not thousands years away from tech like that I wish but that just so much seems like Year 3,000 technology at best
man this was beautiful, I really wish it was longer it was so good. Great work
Imagine what humanity could do with an O'Neill Cylinder that is equipped with an Alcubierre Drive!

This video is like a magnet for such minds.
Tears flow from my eyes. Wish I could to be around when all this wonders happens. Our future is certainly in the stars.
Дай Бог чтобы так оно и было!!!
Thank you for this amazing video. Very well narrated, it keeps you in perspective and most importantly, it's full of hope too!
Incase people are curious, the last spaceship uses something called the "Alcubierre drive"
thank you
Alcubierre drive is theoretical and not actually proven to work. Its working physics is beyond our current technological capabilities by centuries if ever.
Yep, and sadly it will not work. Even if the weird physics to make it work somehow is solved.
The energy cost is so stupidly high the craft is unable to carry the fuel or reactor that's needed to make it work - here I talk about nuclear fuel meaning Tritium + He3 or better.
No reactor that's have to be fitted inside a ship can be made to work on such an energy level either. Not even if one bring a tame black hole - which would be the ultimate energy converter.
It's the energy equivalent of many +10 000 of stars at the same time, and to have that process running for the entire trip.
So it's a big dream, but it simply will not happen well except........
If humanity do extremely well and we become a Kardashev III civ in the far far future, then those distant descendants of us might do it once or twice just to show off.
...or if they find they have urgent need to look at something new or unexpected.
But for our dreams of going elsewhere and colonise new worlds, we better take better care of our backyard first, it will be only a small fraction of a ‰ of the very best and suitable that can go, and only on slow boat. And possibly only as stored templates, to be reconstructed on arrival. To travel physically in your own body look quite unlikely. The ideas about freezing and other various ideas of keeping the passengers in long term dormant state fail to address the problem of radiation that will break down both the genetic code, and over time also cause damage to vital enzymes and hormones - while the repair mechanisms for those will be frozen and dormant as well and so unable to repair the damage.
So perhaps we humans can piggyback in a memory storage array, and perhaps have replicants of ourselves made at any destination - which would be cool.
But the universe belong to the machines, and the idea of cute little spaceships with windows and a star ship captain that say 'engage' and add a dramatic hand gesture...... is by far the least probable scenario we'll ever see.
@@yashpatel261 we need to be at least a type one or two civilization in the "Kardashav scale" to even consider something like a warp drive , currently , we are a 0.00002 type of civilization , too primitive because we still using fossil fuels , and a warp drive isn't even possible , you'll need at least the power and the mass of a black hole reduced to fit in a spaceship , it's impossible with the current tech !
@@offlinegamer6756we're type 0.7 actually
Props to the 3d artists for these amazing concepts and visuals❤
It's almost impossible to grasp within a person's mind just how far away our closer star systems are. Thankyou sooo much for this video. We WILL most certainly need to go very fast indeed.
What the...?? Why does the details look so incredible lifelike? I'm a bit speechless. Great Work!
Whoever created this channel. Thank you and God bless you.
Hot damn! That was just what I needed to see today. Thank you.
3:15 is my new Wallpaper. The animation is incredible. I strive to animate something a fraction as good. Very well made video!
instant sub the second i could dry my eyes.
wow.
Interesting video. The speed of light is so fast, but the distances of the universe are unimaginably immense.
But how to slow down? I always loved this theory but even in science fiction shows I always wondered, would coming out of "jump speed" or whatever we would call it, actually return us to the original speed we were at when jump was activated?
The ship is staying in place, while it's the space moving around the ship. Soo if we want to halt, just stop making the space move, it should all come back to normal. I guess.
I love Erik's work so much.
For the survival and future of humankind we need to make this a reality, and we need it fast.
We must trash more planets.
When I took a class on relativity in college, and my prof taught about time dialation... he said we're never to go there ...and back.. I almost cried, believing that Star Trek could be true.
the ship doesn't move faster than the speed of light, rather it bends space to reach the destination, this avoids time dilation.
just because FTL is impossible doesn’t mean we can’t make it there and back in a human lifetime
we just need to go incredibly fast (not quite as fast as the ship in this video, but fast enough)
@@klixx_yt2396But it still violates causality and local simultaneity. Unless you can show me a proof demonstrating how this violating is still within the bounds logic and fixing all the violations of contemporary physics, then I simply have to claim it as pseudoscience.
i've heard that satisfying the alcubierre equations would require us to find some source of *negative mass* - not to be confused with "antimass" which actually still measures positive values of mass and therefore gravitation. As it so happens, a source of negative mass/gravitation would, according to the math at least, enable us to stabilize wormholes. I think it's actually quite believable that we might someday gain access to alcubierre drives that allow us to approach significant portions of the speed of light *but* that interstellar travel would be handled by wormholes. either way... I would love to see it happen in my lifetime.
That's the biggest issue, we have the theory, just haven't found this mysterious energy source. The thing is, we know something exists, because of the latest experiments at CERN, hence why we need a bigger particle accelerator. If we can observe clashes with particles for longer, I think we could figure out the anti mass conundrum. It's so fascinating to describe in one comment.
@@DrumToTheBassWoop i sure hope it's something that's always been right under our nose but for our inability to detect it, for lack of knowing what to look for. I wish we could build a particle accelerator in earth's moon though...! Imagine that: a particle accelerator over THREE THOUSAND KILOMETERS wide just a few dozen meters under the lunar surface, isolated from external radiation sources by all that inert regolith...!
Вперед к звездам!!
Great Video
Amazing work! Love it ...
inspirational, thank you. I hope humanity doesn't die on Earth but becomes multiplanetary at least
If humans can prevent ourselves from going extinct like the dinosaurs, we'll really prove our evolutionary fitness!
Yes, I too enjoy science fiction
Can we combine nuclear propulsion antimatter and solar sail
Even tho FTL jump is indeed impossible right now due to our knowledge of physics but who knows in the future humanity will achive it because remember when Airplanes and Computer was an impossible thing in the past but look today we are using it in our daily life
We born too early to explore the cosmos. Just if this somehow is achievable, could change EVERYTHING. I really crossfingers everytime space x launch a rocket (even more with starship) this are just crazy big steps for us, for a possible golden-age of travel across the universe and finding new things out there. One day we'll make it.
reminded me the futurama spaceship joke, the ship isn't moving, it's the space that is moving.
