  1. No it's not the same thing, research can include doing the math as in "theoretical research". It usually suggests more practical research like building a prototype VASMIR ion engine and testing it in a laboratory. it is important to emphasize that warp drives is strictly at the extreme preliminary theoretical stage and most likely totally impossible. It is not in any way like "research" into real technology like quantum computers, solar sails and fusion reactors.
  2. No there isn't, because your statement is simply unsupported, you didn't show any evidence and you won't be able to because there is none. There is also no such thing as warp field, warp drives are supposed to distort space time. They are researching the possibility as in they are doing the math, like how people are also doing the math on other most likely impossible things because it's very cheap to do. But just because you did your math does not mean it is possible in any way. Also that's exactly what I said in the beginning, they're not building a warp drive in any way shape or form. There is no such thing as a "NASA warp drive". http://www.nasa.gov/centers/glenn/technology/warp/warp.html If you did the slightest bit of actual research, instead of reading those idiotic hype click baits, you would've seen NASA's official statement on warp drives:
  3. And he also made it clear that an interferometer is not a warp drive, it's a sensor. Did I mention it's just a paper being written and that's it? Like how people publish paper on 200-dimension super string theory and infinite parallel universes? As in, most of those turn out to be completely theoretical and/or wrong. And it doesn't start research into anything because there is no evidence what so ever that a warp drive of any kind is possible even in principle, nobody would fund this.
  4. YouTube is not a reliable source, it is also a commercial source where people just want you to watch their ads, and will not hesitate to hype random things completely out of proportion to get the attention.
  5. That is what you call a concept art, and the article is from what you call an unreliable source as it isn't academic and it isn't NASA.gov. It's commercial website that is interested in click baits for people who have no idea how real science works. No they have not. http://qr.ae/RUgCR2
  6. NASA is NOT making a warp drive in any way shape or form, please.....
  7. Why are jets out? I haven't' tried this but from what I remember it's totally possible with jets?
  8. So whoever has the fastest CPU wins? Like 6700k or 5775C?
  9. " In KSP, fighter jets are notoriously difficult to design. This challenge is made greater in Ferram Aerospace " Only when you make up a big list of arbitrary constraints to only allow things that looks a certain way for no reason.
  10. How can it be less of a challenge when people are competing against each other under the same rules? If we're talking about complexity it's more of a challenge because you have to make them explode at the right time. Too early you loose fuel too late you slow yourself down with drag. Where as in a no damage situation you just use the strongest parts and don't have to worry about any of that. Just because you didn't read the rules carefully and failed to take advantage of all the tools at your disposal doesn't make those tools bad. Also Autopilot doesn't work at sub-orbital flight paths. So please stop complaining and improve your designs.
  11. Innovative designs: 1, It's triple decked, have you ever seen a triple decked rover before? Intelligent designs: 1, It was intelligently designed for maximum efficiency. Safe designs: 1, It's impossible to blow up with this unless you crash into something. Kerbals: 1344, No hitchhiker and not stick shaped. Tests: -2-2-10-5-15 = -34, I could've done 3,4,5,6 but I'm too lazy. Total score: 1,310 points. No mods, Does not fly, Does not hover.
  12. Mine actually doesn't blow up immediately after because it's on an accent trajectory, I could have landed it afterwards with the amount of lift avilable to me if that was required. The core stage is all made of 2400 degree parts so it's not that much of a suicide mission.
  13. good, now it will only take me 2 years non-stop IRL to complete this challenge.
