Random idea this brings up... Some of the faster than light drive concepts worked by compressing space in front of the ship and expanding it behind. If sound waves carry mass maybe they could be harnessed and focused in a way to warp space time and impact travel speed? I wonder how the medium impacts the mass?

- espeed 8y agoGravitational waves resonate at audio frequencies [1], but I am not aware of any findings on that wrt light. However, you can convert light into sound through the photoacoustic effect [2], and curiously enough, you can recover sound from images through light [3].
