A new study claimed that warp drives for future spacecraft are possible, thanks to the so-called soliton. If space agencies can have this capability, astronomers and other space experts will reach other planets and even distant galaxies in no time.
This could destroy the spacecraft and also endanger the passengers. A soliton could be the answer to this problem. However, the study's researchers explained that solitons need to rely on sources with only net-positive energies capable of traveling at any speed.
On the other hand, Erik Lentz, the new study's author, explained that their innovation employs the structure of space and time organized in a soliton or warp bubble. This will help space experts to achieve a unique solution for superluminal travel.
Will NASA and SpaceX have this new technology?
As of the moment, the researchers involved in the study didn't confirm if they will work with SpaceX, NASA, or other giant space agencies. It is important to remember that this innovation is still a theory. On the other hand, the hyper-fast solitons also don't exist yet. If the scientists decide to work with giant space agencies, it will still take them more than 50,000 years. You can click here for more details.
