IXS Enterprise



The IXS Enterprise as imagined by Mark Rademaker

IXS Enterprise is a conceptual interstellar superluminal spacecraft designed by NASAscientist Dr. Harold G. White, revealed at SpaceVision 2013, designed for the goal of achieving warp travel. The conceptual spacecraft would be a modified version of the Alcubierre drive. Dr. White is currently running the White–Juday warp-field interferometerexperiment in order to develop a proof of concept for Alcubierre-style warp travel, if possible. The Alcubierre drive uses exotic matter (not to be confused with antimatter) to travel faster than light.

While the concept had been out since 2013 the design of IXS Enterprise was popularized in June 2014 after a series of media outlets reported on the conceptual artwork done by Dutch artist Mark Rademaker in collaboration with NASA.[1] According to Mark Rademaker, over 1,600 hours have been spent on the conceptual artwork that he created.[2]

The energy required to power the warp drive, according to White,[3] is approximately the negative (negative energy is required for the Alcubierre drive concept to function) mass–energy equivalence of Voyager 1, which has a mass of approximately 700 kilograms. Using E=mc2, −700 kilograms of mass is equivalent to ~−63 exajoules of energy (this number is not definitive and can be further reduced). The ship has two thick outer rings (to reduce required energy) that generate the warp field—a contraction of space ahead, and expansion of space behind it. The space inside the rings is optimized to fit more space for cargo, crew and equipment.

The Alcubierre drive or Alcubierre warp drive (or Alcubierre metric, referring to metric tensor) is a speculative idea based on a solution of Einstein's field equations in general relativity as proposed by Mexican theoretical physicist Miguel Alcubierre, by which a spacecraft could achieve apparent faster-than-light travel if a configurable energy-density field lower than that of vacuum (that is, negative mass) could be created.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alcubierre_drive

Although the metric proposed by Alcubierre is consistent with the Einstein field equations, it may not be physically meaningful, in which case a drive will not be possible. Even if it is physically meaningful, its possibility would not necessarily mean that a drive can be constructed.
The proposed mechanism of the Alcubierre drive implies a negative energy density and therefore requires exotic matter. So if exotic matter with the correct properties can not exist, then the drive could not be constructed.
However, at the close of his original article Alcubierre argued (following an argument developed by physicists analyzing traversable wormholes) that the Casimir vacuum between parallel plates could fulfill the negative-energy requirement for the Alcubierre drive.


5 Difficulties

5.1 Mass–energy requirement
5.2 Placement of matter
5.3 Survivability inside the bubble
5.4 Damaging effect on destination
5.5 Wall thickness
5.6 Causality violation and semiclassical instability

The metric of this form has significant difficulties because all known warp-drive spacetime theories violate various energy conditions.

Perhaps the confirmation of the Higgs-Boson will enable a breakthru in FTL travel. The Higgs-Field acts like a kind of speed limiter allowing things to exist at slower than light speed.

The presence of the field, now confirmed by experimental investigation, explains why some fundamental particles have mass, despite the symmetries controlling their interactions implying that they should be massless. It also resolves several other long-standing puzzles, such as the reason for the extremely short range of the weak force.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Higgs_boson

Within the standard model, if the Higgs field did not exist, neither would we. Through their interactions with the Higgs field, various subatomic particles (such as the electron and quarks) become massive. If the Higgs field did not exist, then these particles would have no rest mass whatsoever and, just as photons (which have no rest mass), would fly off at the speed of light. These particles would never be able to form atoms as they would be too busy zipping about at the speed of light.

There is an old lecture on youtube that effectively explains the Higgs-Field. It was made before the Higgs-Boson was confirmed.

That's the problem with all of this,
We are all just star stuff;
We can never go back.
Stellar nucleosynthesis became Elementary.
And everything else just Compounded it.

Actually, EVERYTHING is just star stuff.
An ever-dynamic dance of heat, gravity and mass which changes the Static State of the Universe over duration (time).
