[QUOTE]Originally posted by MIB: [QB] I think that TSN is correct on this one. If I remember how warp fields work, a starship creates a warp bubble around itself. This warp bubble is what moves around the galaxy at faster-than-light speeds, not the starship its self. Sense the starship happens to be INSIDE the bubble, it happens to take the starship along with it. As for how the bubble move across the galaxy at faster-than-light speeds, it streches the fabric of space in front of the bubble and contracts the space behind the bubble (or it might be vice versa. I'm not sure). This causes a kind of tidal wave in the fabric of space. It's this tidal wave that the warp bubble uses to surf accross the galaxy. I could try and explain the whole thing in more detail, but I'm too lazy. [IMG]http://flare.solareclipse.net/smile.gif[/IMG] All of this, believe it or not, is theoreticly possible in the REAL world! Cool huh? I might be off on how warp fields work by quite a bit. In all honesty it's been a long time sense I read any papers on how warp drive is theoreticly supposed to work. Being a 16 year old geek is hard. [IMG]http://flare.solareclipse.net/biggrin.gif[/IMG] I'll try to do a bit of reaserch on warp fields and post what I find if you'd like. [/QB][/QUOTE]
