This is awesome. If I were in charge I would give you guys a ton of funding to explore these options.

Yay Sonny White :D You'll get us to the outer reaches of space. ;) You're already part of human history! Believe in your dreams!

Wow mind blowing lecture . According to the math and graphs, he does have an instance of a Warp Bubble Signature. Now its just validation, interesting to say the least. And a Q thruster does produce what he says it does thrust. Now he is trying to use science and math to see if their is maybe a better design for the Q thruster. The math and science now has to catch up to the actual working device. Their is things we use in our lives today that science has yet to catch up to. It doesn't stop us from using them or making them useful.

Thank God for you Doc you were the first person to ever mention the dangers of gravity wave time dilation. Sitting in a centrifuge till near C shows it real fast.

This dude is the ultimate badass (along with alberto cubierre). both of these men are my heroes.

As Captains of the famed Star Trek has always said, “Engage”! What I meant is engage with your work. Put your words into action.

1:57: loose lips sink ships You guys rock As a pilot, I understand the power of flight and want to fly with these technologies. Propellers are over 100 years old. Let's go!

Yo this guy stuck with this for years and finally had a breakthrough.

wow, maybe the very first steps in interstellar travel... i am amazed.

He ends the conference saying: There is no shortcuts... very funny

Great Stuff! Keep - UP the good work NASA.

Amazing stuff. Seems like Dr. White has a gun pointed to his head when he doesn't say where this type of research could lead to if successful. I understand that it could make false hopes and promises but I think everyone just wants him to say we could travel the universe. All the best to him and his research, if it is successful it should be made a priority for NASA (if not I'm sure SpaceX would hire him).

The fact that the math largely checks out means by the time I die this may be a reality. I remember EmDrive (RF resonant cavity thrusters) being a joke but hearing the math is substantiated. Not too long ago it was proven to yield positive thrust. While these two are vastly different systems the fact that the math largely checks out means it stands a good chance of becoming reality in time.

Since the end of the Cold War, humanity has been drifting aimlessly. For me this puts everything in perspective. Settle our petty differences 😡, trust science to fix climate change 🧪, and avoid stumbling into the teeth of WWIII😱. We can visit the stars, humanity has work to do, and I pray I may be a small part of it🤓

If I had to take a sip of an alcoholic beverage every time he said "uh" I'd probably die.

is the second half of this meaning that an emdrive really could work? heck! get the frustum to be superconducting!

Sonny is a rock star of physicist!!

Muchas felicidades por el hallazgo y es una oportunidad mas que nos alienta en cuidar nuestro planeta del sobrecalentamiento global. Espero que sea muy pronto inventar el vehículo tripulado que nos pueda llevar a ese planeta en menos tiempo antes que nos acabemos nuestro planeta

hell that magnetic worm horm hole recon is in the book of spells with the three piece em worm hole drive

What's going on with the EmDrive?! The suspense is killing us!

I think Dr. White is one of only about 50 people in the world who understands Einstein's Theory of General Relativity, and the 'zero point' part of it that Einstein believed was not correct.

We have 41 years to get warp drives working. Let's "make it so".

Watched some of the videos on warp drive and found them quite interesting. I've been thinking about the energy problem. How to get the energy to create the bubble. As far as I know, if you have some bacteria that reproduce at an exponential rate, those things can pretty much become the size of Jupiter in a decent amount of time. Haven't actually done the calculation, but I saw someone else do it on a video and it was something like... maybe a month to become the size of Earth and then a few more days to become like Jupiter? Can something like this be grown in other space? No idea. But if it can be grown in other space, then such an organism wouldn't require anyone to add the mass by hand in order to create the bubble needed for space warp. It would only require someone to have on board the space craft the seeds, or whatever might They be, and let them loose in space an afterwards nature would just do it's course, and once the organism reaches the desired dimension, one kills it at the same time and it releases probably the desired energy. Plants accumulate energy by storing photons. And They multiply. If all that energy is released at once, it should cover up the energy expenditure of the warp drive process. Instead of using a detector that is man made to store the energy required to move, one can use plants that store this energy naturally and behave like a natural light detector. And if those plants are made to multiply at an exponential rate, They would in theory at least be able to store the desired amount of energy required by space warp. And then the trick is to make them release that energy all at the same time, in order to create that massive energetic bubble that You talk about.

Humanities crawl, walk, rub for interplanetary flight!!

So it's 2020 have you built the warp drive yet? :)

Ayeeee Nice video I enjoyed it a lot keep up the good work!:)

On the Emdrive: Magnetron has small torque residue due to the Faraday motor effect...

Warping the space around a spacecraft but the in close proximity to a planet. How would it affect the location of the planet? Would it cause something like a gravitational tidal push against the planet and possibly change its orbit ?

Just a random thought here: What if you were to take the bullet cartridge shape of a revolver (on a larger scale) and drop a magnetron in each slot, rotate the cylinder shape and then fire in sequence?

Just read Three Body Problem --partly---and the idea of a pendulum and the antenna signal amplified thru the sun was discussed. Perhaps this focus stems from the admission that our current energy is at a dead end. Wasn't an idea of Tesla's a concept about a change in the air pressure, etc in front of a craft to create a 'falling forward' as a way to go into future tech?

U.S. Air Force was capable to explore Solar system since about 1970 (when their material research lab developed samarium magnets). Magnetic drive is enough to fly to other planets. And if you aim to travel further (to the stars) - see quantum entanglement if you want to build an advanced engine. You may just let the electricity go through a wire, than it's being separated from one into TWO currents. Some of the electrons in these currents are entangled (it's better if it's 40-80%, and not 3-4% of course). Then you start to influence current A) with high-frequency magnetic field. For example, if you use 30 MHz to change the spin in current A) - current B) will receive 30 000 000 impulses per second. Even if they are weak, high frequency provides the thrust (and, as it's known, the speed of quantum entanglement interaction is above the speed of light). The only thing left is to place a crew cabin between current A) and B) - so it will receive the impulse coming through.

Could someone help me getting Dr.Harold White Email? Or how I can contact him. Thanks

In the space shuttle tank maybe it is good if there is a sheet pushes the liquid and gas fuel to make no vacuum in the tank

does anyone have the latest on this as of six years later?

I DON'T GET A CONNECTION OF MASS ELIMINATION & WARPING SPACETIME: The socalled "Alcubierre-White" (Dr. Sonny White at NASA) spacetime warp drive enter planetary/interstellar ship concept indicates and explains that the torus or ring of the fictional spacecraft must be very thick (for optimal "York Time" of warping spacetime and that the crew section or fuselage in the middle must be located well within the torus or both torases ad indicated in the artist rendering of this video and not extending too far beyond rings or toruses. Dr. White's work (baby or toddler simplified) involves oscillating electrical power though the toruses or rings at such a hyper rate as to put everything in the immediate vicinity into a high dimension or "subspace." Mass or weight of the ship is eliminated and the ship no longer interacts with normal solid things or matter electromagnetically. Being massless, only a very slight push maybe an ion drive of today's technology would propel the ship up to light speed. (But actually warping spacetime I was thinking is different but would take a space craft well beyond light speed and I don't get the connection of warping spacetime with the White system warping spacetime.) However, oscillation of the torus into a higher dimension removing the mass or weight reminds me of a ghost able to "float" through a solid wall since the apparition vibrates on a higher dimension and does not interact with solid objects or things like a wall. And the ghost can travel without a speed limitation. FIVE MONTHS AGO, I COMMENTED: "Sonny" (with a really cool story and idea that is "PLAUSIBLE" i.e. believable although not "FEASIBLE" or not currently capable of being done) basically proposed to soften SPACE-TIME ("space") ... maybe in some not too far off future or hopefully just around the corner after I'm dead of course since I'm already an old guy ... by a dimensional shift using extremely rapid vibration of the "ring" around the ship in order to "soften" what is an extremely "stiff" space-time ... thus requiring far, far less energy to WARP space-time allowing the ship to "travel" within a warp-filed bubble faster than light ... expanding space-time behind and compressing space-time in front so the ship "surfs" forward like a surfer riding a wave toward the beach shore. Inside the warp "bubble," there is no time-dilation thus the people would age the same as those left behind on earth. This would allow for interstellar travel or travel to other planets or star systems in a few days and weeks instead of a few million years using today's fossil-fuel rocket technology (although ion-engines are already being used and could approach 10 -- 15 percent light speed over time but would also result in time dilation meaning astronauts maybe in generational ships would slower than people back on earth). But there are a couple of other ideas that are suppose to be even better and faster and requiring no separate energy shield to protect the craft from space debris during faster than light travel called the Alcubierre-Froning warp drive engine and another one by a Japanese physicist Dr. Musha (?) involving a different proposed futuristic technology ... and I'm not referring to "worm holes" the idea of which I personally do not like or believe will ever happen any more than "beaming" people or matter from place to place. The other engine ideas are on different videos, of course. It's all so exciting!!! Oh yes, an alien tech to warp space for some "flying saucers" involves making anti-matter as needed (instead of storing it in a magnetic bottle) to be combined with hydrogen ions (protons) as needed inside a chamber to generate extremely hot PLASMA immediately converted almost 100-percent into electricity stored in a large capacitor to energize three individually adjustable cylinders that create a space-time warp bubble around the ship or alien "saucer" craft thus allowing for FTL (faster than light) travel. It uses a small (small enough to fit between a finger and thumb) piece of element 115 that is placed in a small container of the ship and bombarded by protons that results in small amounts becoming element 116 that is a very unstable isotope with a half-life on a fraction of a second ... and that also released a small amount of ANTI-MATER sub-atomic particles. The anti-matter particles or anti-protons (or was it anti-electrons ... can't recall for sure) that are met in the plasma chamber by hydrogen ions meaning protons resulting in a violent reaction to generate an extremely hot plasma. This plasma heat is converted almost 100-percent into electricity that powers the warp cylinders I already described.

I would anyway love to visit so when I am coming to California I will get to the Ames Research Center as I think that I could definitely help you with some understandings of how things should be designed.

There is nothing that can go fast enough. If you use propulsion. It must be gravimetric. You must be pulled. Using resonance to create a attraction.

At 10.50 is he referring to the Townsend brown effect.I may have the name wrong

Can you use the electric currents ( Birkeland Currents ) between bodies in space instead of using 'exotic matter' engines? The currents being mapped by Voyager and IBEX could generate power, thrust, re-charge batteries, power a ramscoop and polywell and generate an EM field, etc.? Why brute force travel through 'void' space when 'energy highways' exist?

a momentum wake? then we are talking a kind of antigravity, aren't we? aka the good stuff :) I wonder how good the resonance is in the cavity and how much that matters. If there is some induced jitter that hurts efficacy. I also wonder if rather than an edged cavity, a rounded shape could work, possibly better. Maybe even a double saucer discus shape... :)

HOLLY FK. in 2022 this dude in DARPA Lab created first time-space warp bubble like in startrek. Do u understand what this dude did? He prooved that warp drive is possible for us to build already now. Mindfuck af!!!

This guy seems to be saying that he's powered up a "low fidelity test article" and his interferometer says its warping a teensy weensy bit of space.. In spite of questions he does not say what the "low fidelity test article" might be. He is very nervous. The audience is very quiet. Hmmmm.

The jokes are landing with me at home but that’s one tough crowd. Much like the space they occupy in regards to allowing FTL, perhaps they need to lighten up.

In the interests of accuracy, I feel obligated to point out for future reference, Dr. Miguel Alcubierre's family/surname is of Spanish origin, *not* French, thus the final 'e' is pronounced in the Spanish language; the correct pronunciation is Al-cooh-beer-eh. Here is a Spanish language video for the correct pronunciation of Dr. M. Alcubierre's surname or family name, by a native Spanish speaker, from time index 2;14: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/rN-eeZOHrNTXg2g.html

uhh, this is really uhhh interesting. uhh

So it's 2018 have you built the warp drive yet? :)

Yet years after I'm here wondering, why were they so optimistic compared to nowadays? Is it due to the fact that it was an emerging concept back then? All I can read right now is there are no progress toward negative energy concept. Is it the way it works in science fields? Big hype quickly turning into big anti-hype until someone finds out something new again? :(

Why have the emdrive and cannae drives not been tested in a vacuum? You think it can be somehow pushing on quantum particles but not, say, air particles? I really want this to be true, but can't care at all until it is tested in a vacuum. I'm sure you are getting thrust, but don't you think it is probably pushing on air?

the sound recording here is unbearable i can hear his mouth is so dry it drives me nuts !!!!!

Is this how we built the pyramids?

Give him whatever he needs. Rockets Are ridiculous. I know the folks at AIMS know that too. I’ve personally witnessed exactly what these people are talking about in the real world right here in Monterey California , so someone other than me MUST have seen these disk craft too! I’m positive of that . There is a reason nasa is up in Cupertino very close to the Santa Cruz mountains. Skunkworks too . They exactly what I’m talking about too. And love to pretend like civilians don’t have a clue what they are already doing but I do . Like I said I’ve seen the nuts and bolts version ( man made fully functional) and the real glowing white classic disks right here on earth in the Santa Cruz mountains. It’s a fact and this is only a teeny tiny bit of what is already happening here on earth and has been since we foolishly handed authority to our idiot lawmakers and politicians who have been stone walling us all for 70 + years. These guys speak this way because it puts distance between them and the majority of people who are aware of their fully functioning society of folks financially connected to the real world leaders far in advance of our own planets wants and needs . Come on give me a ride 👽🙏✌️

I am so confused!

Why does he look so disappointed that the Q-thruster and warp drive won't work.

The previous generation had Einstein, Ulam, von Braun and the Apollo program. Our generation has Sonny White and the seven warps dreaming about hitching a ride on the Starship Enterprise while paying the Russian space program to hitch real rides to low earth orbit.

NO NO NO you are doing it all wrong;the speed of light is due to the permittivity and permeability of free space,Light does not have an absolute speed not relatively speaking anyway,we can slow light down and speed it up according to Maxwell's equations that is what determines the seed of light the density of space time;this is why light bends around a massive object,it is traveling slower because space time is denser or warped due to the mass.One need to evacuate the quantum vacuum zero point energy to create very low permittivity and permeability then the seed of light can approach infinity.Well in reality the seed of light does not change but the rate of time flow does relative to outside the bubble.Creating a bubble in space time is not so hard,imagine being in an evacuated space time bubble your rate of time flow will be many thousands of time faster than outside therefore your energy output will also be multiplied making it possible to create and maintain the bubble

uh um um um uh uh um um uh uh um.

Estimating the acceleration force (torque) on Shawyer's demo published on KZfaq it appears that the force is actually at least million times higher than what Eagleworks lab reports!! Is is a fraud?

Go to the Egyptian book of spells with the invisible warp ship and visible one with a man brain storming! You need that field generator or your crew will be in hyper transits and will only piece a crust of crystal on your skin with it! Don't ever approach me about the teck I'm retired for good

Antimatter Factory spaceship using Quantum Batteries and the next level electronics and the new metal that was discovered in the university in Switzerland that weighs next to nothing and 100% energy efficient solar Panels and photonic the Space ship could go 100 - 1000 times faster than the speed of light

Ezekiels wheel wheir fore out thou

"Human space exploration". really need to specify that it is us exploring? Hmm

to many paused neuron synapse gap jumps

I would love to see AI unleashed on warp drive theory

we Need now warp and lasers engines

I watched zubrin video before this, and he says 6 months to mars is gonna be the journey no matter the technology.

108k subscribers...heheh

uh

dr Harold white doesnt know that he talking when come to Quantum mechanics physics in warp dimensional drive propulsion systems in saucers spacecrafts ! ive wrote harold white twice about Quantum mechanics physics and he said he did not have knowledge how it wotks on saucer spacecraft!

Simple to design a simulation of any shape RF resonant cavity using CST Microwave studio reveals that sum of Lorentz forces acting up on wall of a cavity is always equal to zero which means that no external force is generated, period!!

Its sooooo hard to listen to the ah, ah, ah, ah, ah. Litterally 90%+ of his words are prefixed with ahhh-, and some times ah,ah,ah. "The ah central ah-part of the ah-space ah-craft is ah ah ah centrally ah-located to ah ah- facilitate ah ah ah propulsion ah ah so ah we ah have to ah ah ah ah plan ah for ah this ah. The message is lost in the distraction.

micro newtons and electromagnetic test 🙄🤔

They die from it with out it

Ah x 1000

Nope. I don't think so.

It's very annoying and distracting to hear the sound of this guy's lips and mouth sticking together over the microphone. Do your audience a favor and drink some water before giving a lecture! Real shit

Im very disappointed with NASA. The past 40 years or so. With the announced testing of the albacore math, I had high hopes for the research being done with it. Instead another let down with this brief. I got more info from grad students testing prototypes and showing results. checkout spacewarp on youtube. NASA why is it these guys are doing more testing on folding space time with no budget then you are with?

Dr. White, try drinking some water next time you speak. That noise you make is distracting.

🙄🤔

what r these ppls brains made up of...😶

Uhh. Uuhh.. uh.. uhhh. Uh. Uhh. Uuuh

blah blah blah gives more billions

Jees where have does the ames went to with research. Kinda funny there are so many wrong phrases based on so much wrong physics that is not correct and probably quite a bit of pseudomathematics. Quite a few things wrong about the basic universe postulates including space.

Forget wormholes. Construct space-time warp crafts even if for 50 to 80 percent light speed using current fusion reactors for power.
