Interstellar flights via alcubierre warp drive

The possibilities of interstellar flights for extraterrestrial civilizations have been considered. A superluminal motion (hypermotion) via Alcubierre warp drive is analyzed. Parameters of the warp drive have been estimated. The equations of starship geodesics have been solved. The starship velocity has been shown to exceed the speed of light, with the local velocity relative to deformed space-time being subluminal. The warp drive creation by a supercivilization requires a galactic energy consumption. Hawking radiation does not prove to affect the ship interior considerably, Difficulties related to a practical realization of the hypermotion are indicated. © 2020, Univelt Inc. All rights reserved.
