Hyperspace-hyperdrive

Question

i was wondering if hyperspace and creating a hyperdrive is pure scifi or if it is hypothetical

is it thought that one day, we will create a hyperdrive or is it just c**p?

Answer 1

It's not even theoretical -- it is just fiction.

Answer 2

By "hyperdrive" do you mean traveling at speeds close to the speed of light, or at the speed of light? If so, then that is far from accomplishment, but I do have faith that someday we *may* be able to travel at, or close to the speed of light. You are definitely not going to see it in your lifetime, or generations from now for that matter.

If you mean we create a worm hole, and then jump from one end of the universe to another, then that my friend, is pure c**p. Although we may be able to make a rip in space time, we would not be able to make a wormhole, and definitely not control where it would land us. And if we did, the space ship would not be strong enough to survive the journey. And wormholes aren't like teleportation devices, they are basically shortcuts. Even that is a little off. You would have to do research to understand what a worm hole really is.

Answer 3

As modern physics stands today it is theoretically possible to travel the cosmos in what would appear to be faster-than-light travel.  In lay man's terms, what it would require is the warping of space-time around a space vessel that would be comparable to what a black hole does to space-time around it. Let us say that you take a sheet of paper and draw a point on each end of the paper that represent point of origin and your end destination.  Conventionally the short distance between the two points is a straight line, but provided you have the energy needed to warp the space-time fabric (have it happens with massive objects in the universe: i.e. gravity is really the warping of space-time), it would be like folding the sheet of paper to where you touch together the two points, thereby eliminating the distance needed to travel the is represented by the paper when it lays flat.

While it is theoretically possible to do so, our technology and power requirements are severely lacking.  It would require more power the travel using warp drive than is produced by the sun.

its c**p, bull c**p
