Deforming spacetime wouldn't really put components closer together, or cause light to travel faster, or anything.
You never know with stuff this weird though. Maybe something else will fall out of their research. It's been known to happen when pushing the boundaries of our understanding of physics.
- cinquemb 13y agoWell if you treat light like an object (if you consider its particle like properties), and deform space-time between the components (or more like deform space-time around the light, so it is of regardless where the components are in euclidean space), wouldn't that theoretically achieve the same thing as making light "move" faster between the components? Though the way I envision that the components would have be connected by or lie in some kind of vacuum. I mean, these have to be the in the family of tests NASA will have to be conducting on particles before "moving" ships through free space becomes some kind of reality, right?
