A thought I had a long time ago on the Alcubierre drive: it violates everything we know about space-time and causality to travel in any way (and thus transfer information) faster than the speed of light, but what if you could use this to travel at or near the speed of light?
If we could build one we might even run into a causality protection principle effect where if you try to exceed 'c' something bad happens or something rapidly goes to infinity, but you can warp around at 'c' just fine.
That would let us easily get around the solar system and would enable star travel in 5-10 years.
