An Alcubierre Warp Drive stretches spacetime in a wave causing the fabric of space ahead of a spacecraft to contract and the space behind it to expand. The ship can ride the wave to accelerate to high speeds and time travel. The Alcubierre drive, also known as the Alcubierre metric or Warp Drive, is a mathematical model of a spacetime exhibiting features reminiscent of the fictional "warp drive" from Star Trek, which can travel "faster than light" (although not in a local sense - see below).
The key characteristics of the application of Alcubierre warp drives for time control and time travel are presented in the picture below. This is followed by more detail describing the effect below. Alcubierre Warp Drive Description In 1994, the Mexican physicist Miguel Alcubierre proposed a method of stretching space in a wave which would in theory cause the fabric of space ahead of a spacecraft to contract and the space behind it to expand.

The Space Shuttle Videos" The Space Shuttle: Docking International Space Station The crew of STS-114 is about to board the International Space Station. It's in desperate need of maintenance.
Watch STS-114's crew at work on Discovery Channel's "The Space Shuttle: Countdown to Comeback. " The Space Shuttle: Landing of Discovery After completing a successful return to flight mission, Discovery is given the go ahead to land. This will be the first landing since the crash of Columbia. The Space Shuttle: Launch of Shuttle Discovery On Discovery Channel's "The Space Shuttle: Countdown to Comeback," watch as the crew of the STS-114 gets the green light to launch.
The Space Shuttle: Rendezvous Pitch Maneuver Space shuttle Discovery is about to dock at the International Space Station, but first there is one last inspection to perform -- the rendezvous pitch maneuver (RPM). The Space Shuttle: Repair Spacewalk The purpose of the first spacewalk of this mission is to test heat shield repair materials and tools.
