Breakthrough

Faster-than-light travel is the key to humanity’s dreams of inter-galactic space travel. Your challenge is to create an app, tool, game, or other interactive application that showcases both existing, as well as next generation/theoretical, breakthrough spacecraft propulsion in an engaging way.

Warp drive

Summary

This is a technique in which exotic matter is used as a covering for reactions of matter and antimatter are used as a fuel to warp the space here warping means expanding the space behind us and at the same time contract the space ahead of usBy warp drive our speed will not like any other spacecraft (in respect to us) but according to relativity speed can be variable and depends on the point of view and if we apply relativity to warp drive then the speed in respect to us will be slower in respect to other people at a great distance can be faster than light but we know that an object can never achieve or surpass the speed of light but if this can happen then it will prove relativity wrong.

How We Addressed This Challenge

In our theory we explained about faster than light travel, It is called warp drive in this technique space ahead of us is contracted and space behind us is expanded or simply we are warping space time curvature at our will,but for warping space time curvature we need immense amount of energy which we can only obtain from matter and antimatter mixing but these reactions release more than enough energy so we need to sustain the reaction which can be done by a force field of exotic matter which can be powered by repellent power of two magnets .We would take two very big strong magnets and try to keep the same poles on same side the closer we bring them the more force they will exert on each other and we can use this force to sustain the exotic matter force field which in turn will sustain the matter and antimatter reaction. We will have two propulsion systems primary and secondary the primary one is this antimatter and matter and the secondary one is magnetic propulsion system

It is very important in visiting distant galaxies and solar systems which are millions of light year away and can't be visited in time even with speed of light .

warp drive can help us in searching for new habitable planets and also for searching traces of life. We can also weaponize the ship with antimatter bombs because even 100 gram of antimatter mixed with 100 gram of matter can destroy a whole ship or at least just make a hole big enough to destroy ship itself (in case if we found out other civilizations and they are hostile).

I hope to achieve every secret of this universe me and my team want the human civilization to explore the universe and if there's life out there interact with them and if they turn hostile than I would prefer to attack them.The warp drive video

How We Developed This Project

Whenever you sit in the open night have you ever wondered what it would feel like to travel through stars and galaxies and watching those views from inside of your spaceships ? Well me and my team imagined it and that was the moment when we decided to give humanity a new and effective way to travel through this universe in no time. We tried to make this easy so that a person who isn't good in science can also understand.

The problems we faced were if an object surpasses the speed of light then it would prove relativity wrong and me and my team were a bit confused so we at last we agreed that we can break the speed limit in theory .

The formulas that we used to calculate the time you need to travel are:

•(497 * 286770) / 86400 -> time to travel from Earth to Proxima Centauri ( the speed of light is 497 seconds per astronomical unit and the distance from Earth to Proxima Centauri is 286770 A.U.. We divided by 86400 to express the final result in days.)

•(497 * 1680000) / 86400 -> time to travel from Earth to Galactic Center ( the speed of light is 497 seconds per astronomical unit and the distance from Earth to Galactic Center is 1680000 A.U.. We divided by 86400 to express the final result in days.)

•(497 * 383586) / 86400 -> time to travel from Earth to Barnard's Star ( the speed of light is 497 seconds per astronomical unit and the distance from Earth to Barnard's Star is 383586 A.U.. We divided by 86400 to express the final result in days.)

How We Used Space Agency Data in This Project

The information that we found in this link https://imagine.gsfc.nasa.gov/features/cosmic/nearest_star_info.html helped us to calculate the time you need to travel from Earth to Proxima Centauri with speed of light.

Project Demo

This application demonstrates how fast you can travel in the Universe using warp drive propulsion.
