FTL and .
Faster-than-light ( also superluminal or FTL ) communications and travel refer to the propagation of information or matter faster than the speed of light.
On the other hand, what some physicists refer to as " apparent " or " effective " FTL depends on the hypothesis that unusually distorted regions of spacetime might permit matter to reach distant locations in less time than light could in normal or undistorted spacetime.
Although according to current theories matter is still required to travel subluminally with respect to the locally distorted spacetime region, apparent FTL is not excluded by general relativity.
Examples of FTL proposals are changing the " frequency " of mass to a higher state by applying high-frequency waves of energy, the Alcubierre drive, and the traversable wormhole, although the physical plausibility of some of these solutions is uncertain.
In the context of this article, FTL is the transmission of information or matter faster than c, a constant equal to the speed of light in a vacuum, which is 299, 792, 458 meters per second ( by definition ) or about 186, 282. 4 miles per second.
Neither of these phenomena violates special relativity or creates problems with causality, and thus neither qualifies as FTL as described here.
* FTL – ( First To Log ) The first person to log the find of a cache container online.
Loglan is used as the official interspecies language in the roleplaying game FTL: 2448.
The first Man-Kzin War ended when the humans obtained the faster-than-light drive ( FTL ) from the Outsiders, after which the Kzinti ships stood no chance against the FTL warships.
They saw in the aggressive Kzinti a major threat, and orchestrated the events that led to the humans getting FTL ships and thereby ensuring the human victory of the first war.
It was the Outsiders that sold humans the FTL drive, on a stop in the solar system of the human colony called We Made It.
Faster Than Light ( FTL ) propulsion, or hyperdrive, was obtained from the Outsiders at the end of the First Man-Kzin War.
For example, full truckload ( FTL ) rates are more economical on a cost per pallet basis than LTL shipments.
Superluminal communication is the hypothetical process by which one might send information at faster-than-light ( FTL ) speeds.
* The SciFi Channel series FTL Newsfeed begins in the year 2142.
The Alcubierre drive ( or Alcubierre metric see: Metric tensor ) is a speculative idea based on a valid solution of the Einstein field equations as proposed by Miguel Alcubierre by which a spacecraft may achieve faster-than-light ( FTL ) travel, making travel to other stars more feasible.
Yet another problem is that, according to Serguei Krasnikov, it would be impossible to generate the bubble without being able to force the exotic matter to move at locally FTL speeds, which would require the existence of tachyons.
A more recent paper by Carlos Barceló, Stefano Finazzi, and Stefano Liberati makes use of quantum theory to argue that the Alcubierre Drive at FTL velocities is impossible ; mostly due to extremely high temperatures caused by Hawking radiation destroying anything inside the bubble at superluminal velocities and leading to instability of the bubble itself.

Warp drive is a hypothetical faster-than-light ( FTL ) propulsion system in the setting of many science fiction works, most notably Star Trek.
