If an extraterrestrial warp drive collapses, we might be able to sense the resulting gravitational waves from Earth.
Speculative new research outlines a method for detecting extraterrestrial civilizations: by catching the gravitational wave s produced by the collapse, or failure, of their warp drive s. Sounds wild, but the concept is grounded in the principles of Einstein’s general relativity . Warp drives, inspired by Albert Einstein ’s grasp of cosmological physics, were first mathematically modeled by physicist Miguel Alcubierre in 1994.
So our starting point assumes that whatever was keeping the fluid contained has somehow broken and this leads to it dispersing.” By fluid, Clough is referring to the theoretical medium or substance within the warp bubble that needs to be controlled and contained. Ripples through spacetime A warp drive collapse would trigger powerful gravitational waves because it involves the sudden and dramatic alteration of spacetime.

Russia's wealthy elite could face higher income tax as authorities propose a new, progressive systemRussia’s wealthy elite could face higher income taxes. That's according to a proposal from the country’s finance ministry on Tuesday. The proposal involves a progressive tax on personal incomes, a change of course from the current flat-rate tax that was credited with bringing order and improving tax collections after it was introduced in 2001.
