conceptual example, alcubierre warp.

very much like a boats bow/stern waves, or a jets acoustic waves, except much higher energy in a different substance.
- chii 4y ago> in a different substance but there's no such a substance in empty vacuum. If the speed was enough to generate gravitational waves somehow, and that gravitational wave is strong enough to disturb macro objects like the earth, we'd be a bit dead i suppose. The disturbances of spacetime like the alcubierre warp is still theoretical - requires things like negative energy?!
- rolph 4y agospacetime isnt empty vacuum. its a sea of 0 sums that periodically dissociate, into tangible matter. the negative energy requirement was probably a fast and lose statement, its looking more like ...negative for us, energy is required. casimir plate devices and soliton wave functions are the newest idea. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Casimir_effect https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Casimir_effect https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Soliton https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Soliton
