The article is incorrect.
If you check the paper, they are clear that physical warp drive do not allow faster than light travel. It moves only at subluminal speeds. In any case, warp drives (physical or non-physical) are just theoretically interesting.
Taking mass of few solar systems and building a tiny microscopic vehicle that fits inside the bubble is not practical way to travel.
- the_local_host 6y ago> Taking mass of few solar systems and building a tiny microscopic vehicle that fits inside the bubble is not practical way to travel. Fully agree. If interstellar travel ever occurs, it seems more practical to simply freeze people for thousands or millions of years for the journey and stop trying to fit it into the current human lifespan.

- deepsun 6y agoNo need to freeze whole people, we can just freeze human eggs.
- austinprete 6y agoThat are gestated in artificial wombs and reared by robots? Sounds like we'd be better off freezing people.
