For decades, we ve dreamed of visiting other star systems. There s just one problem – they re so far away, with conventional spaceflight it would take tens of thousands of years to reach even the closest one.
Physicists are not the kind of people who give up easily, though. Give them an impossible dream, and they ll give you an incredible, hypothetical way of making it a reality. Maybe.
In a new study by physicist Erik Lentz from Göttingen University in Germany, we may have a viable solution to the dilemma, and it s one that could turn out to be more feasible than other would-be warp drives.

On Wednesday, Feb. 10, at 4 p.m., a Former Editor of The Ridgefield Press, Jack Sanders, will share recent research that reveals that the Armstrongs not only operated a Ridgefield station on the Underground Railroad, but that shows that their grandsons were among the many Black soldiers who fought and died in the Civil War. He will introduce other Black families who lived on Ned’s Mountain and also sent sons to the 29th Regiment of Connecticut Volunteers. Two heroes of the Underground Railroad, Edward and Betsy Armstrong, are buried in Ridgebury Cemetery, located in the Ridgebury neighborhood of Ridgefield. Their home on Ned’s Mountain provided refuge for people making the dangerous journey to safety from enslavement in the South. Pictured is a photo of the Armstrong tombstones in the Ridgebury Cemetery.Sally Sanders / Contributed photoShow MoreShow Less
