Warp Drive is a theoretical method of faster-than-light travel, often seen in science fiction. It allows a spacecraft to move through space by bending or "warping" the fabric of space-time. This concept is popularized by shows like Star Trek, where starships can travel vast distances in a short time, making interstellar exploration possible. The idea behind Warp Drive is that instead of moving through space, a ship would create a bubble around itself, contracting space in front and expanding it behind. This would enable it to effectively ride a wave through the universe, potentially making travel to distant stars like Alpha Centauri feasible.
