Hyperdrive Books

There are some very interesting books available that describe potential hyperdrive systems. Here are a selection of the ones that we recommend.

 
SLIP-STRING DRIVE

SlipString Drive takes you through the basics of string and M-theories so that you can embark on a "faster than light" voyage without violating physics. By using gravity waves to completely isolate volumes of spacetime from the rest of the univers. Bender also offers a "Membrane Theory of Gravity." A modification of M-theory, this new theory unifies all forces, and predicts dark matter and energy.

 
FASTER THAN THE SPEED OF LIGHT

This is the story of the most radical idea to have been proposed in the field of physics since Einstein's relativity theory - the suggestion that the speed of light may not be constant. Written by Imperial College lecturer Joao Magueijo, the book also introduces the reader to modern cosmology.
