NASA Reveals Latest Warp-Drive Ship Designs
Look at the picture above. Nope, it's not a snapshot of a Star Wars scene, or any other sci-fi movie. It's what you get if you combine a NASA physicist working on achieving faster-than-light travel with a 3D artist, and the result is freaking AWESOME. And yes, you heard correctly, there are scientists working on faster-than-light travel, and this is what the ship could look like in the future.
You might be thinking to yourself right now "Faster-than-light travel? But Einstein!" Yes, according to Einstein's theory of relativity, nothing can travel faster than the speed of light. But scientists are looking for ways to get around this, and a team based at NASA Eagleworks, led by Dr Harold "Sonny" White, have been working on just that. They discovered a loophole that could theoretically allow faster-than-light travel without breaking the laws of physics. How? Warp drive, of course!

Note they are using a toroid capacitor ring to generate the field for testing.

Capacitor ring...where have we seen that before?
