Faster-than-light travel still seems like pure science fiction—but it could soon become a reality. Scientists have finally discovered a new way to travel at speeds ten times faster than light! Other research teams have made amazing breakthroughs in WARP technology, and in practice this could mean that in just 10 or 20 years we could have the first prototypes of spaceships capable of traveling enormous distances in ever shorter times.

Renowned Mars expert says Trump-Musk axis risks dooming mission
Robert Zubrin quite literally wrote the book on why humanity should go to Mars—so why has the renowned aerospace engineer soured on Elon Musk, the billionaire entrepreneur leading the charge?
In an interview, the 73-year-old founder of the Mars Society delivered a blistering critique, accusing the world’s richest person of undermining the mission through divisive politics and a bleak vision of the Red Planet as an escape from Earth rather than a journey of hope.
“On one level, he’s absolutely instrumental in opening up this opportunity to get humans to Mars, both through the development of Starship and also the inspiration that has caused,” Zubrin told AFP, referring to Musk’s prototype rocket.

NASA Missions Could Be The Biggest Casualty Of The Trump/Musk Feud
The space agency relies on Elon Musk’s rockets for crucial missions to the International Space Station. Who will replace them when competitors are still playing catch up?

ENGINEERING EARTH: Sci-Fi Solutions to Earth’s Problems — 4K Full Documentary
High quality 4K Download: https://melodysheep.gumroad.com/l/udffp // Soundtrack: https://melodysheep.bandcamp.com/album/engineering-earth-original-soundtrack // Mankind has become the pilot of spaceship earth, whether we like it or not. Half of all habitable land on earth is now dedicated to supporting human activity. And as of the year 2020, the mass of all man-made materials now outweighs the mass of all life forms on earth.
Despite all this, we are still newcomers – untrained pilots steering an ancient, ever-changing planet. If we want to survive long-term and continue to grow, we will have to make bigger technological leaps than ever before.
This film explores the wildest, most ambitious, most dangerous ideas to keep Earth and humanity thriving, by protecting each of its layers – from the lithosphere to the stratosphere.
Many of our ideas may never materialize, but by dreaming them up, we can open our minds to the full potential of human willpower and intellect. The future is ours to build.

Is Elon Musk’s 2026 Mars Plan Realistic? + SECO Achieved
SpaceX is advancing its ambitious Mars plans, aiming to launch five Starships in 2026 and establish a self-sustaining city by 2033, despite facing challenges with vehicle performance and heat shield durability ## ## Questions to inspire discussion.
Production and Design.
🏭 Q: How is SpaceX aiming to increase Starship production? A: SpaceX plans to scale up from producing a Starship every 1–3 weeks to 3 ships per day or 1,000 ships annually using the Gigabay facility, requiring stable designs and efficient production processes.
🚀 Q: What changes are coming with the Block 3 Starship? A: Block 3 Starship will retain 6 engines, have 1,550 tons propellant capacity, 15.7 megatonnes thrust, 52.1 m height, and the entire stack will carry 5,200 tons of propellant.
🔥 Q: How will the Raptor 3 engine improve Starship? A: Raptor 3 will save 39 tons of vehicle mass by self-shielding, eliminating basic heat shielding on the booster bottom, making hot gas and plasma leaks easier to manage. Testing and Development.
🛰️ Q: What’s the status of Raptor engine testing? A: SpaceX has conducted over 300 Raptor tests with 16,000 seconds runtime at McGregor, with actual numbers likely 500 tests and 30,000 seconds firing time.
One theory beyond the standard model could allow wormholes that you could actually fly through
Wormholes are a popular feature in science fiction, the means through which spacecraft can achieve faster-than-light (FTL) travel and instantaneously move from one point in spacetime to another. And while the General Theory of Relativity forbids the existence of “traversable wormholes,” recent research has shown that they are actually possible within the domain of quantum physics.
Elon Musk Serves Up New Starship Program Information
SpaceX is making significant advancements in its Starship program, with plans for increased production, upcoming Mars missions, and ongoing developments in technology and infrastructure, despite facing some challenges ## ## Questions to inspire discussion.
🚀 Q: What is SpaceX’s target for Starship launches to Mars in 2026? A: SpaceX aims to launch 5 Starships to Mars in 2026, with Elon Musk estimating a 50/50 chance of meeting the 2026 Mars window.
🌎 Q: Which region on Mars is the primary landing target? A: The Arcadia region is the top candidate for landing locations due to its large ice deposits. Mission Objectives.
🛰️ Q: What is the main goal of the first Starship flight to Mars? A: The first flight aims to prove the ability to reach Mars by sending minimum viable vehicles to maximize learning and demonstrate key technologies.
🏗️ Q: What are the objectives for the second Starship flight to Mars? A: The second flight will focus on landing initial infrastructure, confirming resource availability, preparing landing areas, and delivering equipment for future human missions. Resource Utilization.
⛏️ Q: What are the key goals for the third Starship flight to Mars? A: The third flight will prioritize resource mining, propellant generation, road and pad construction, habitat building, and increasing power generation and storage.
