It is something I am barely able to start to visualize.. a year ago I would have said impossible. the whole topic is weird.. takingme to a coffee shop discussion some 45 years ago.. but I am not much of a mathematician.

The actual name of the show is "The Unit" but I think it's off the air now. You can buy it on DVD.
Have been doing a lot of thinking about that,, Mostly writing a low grade book but my thoughts are space travel will actually evolve over the years and you will have high speed travel say about 75% of the speed of light ,, for long distance ,, stopping is the problem..I think a new form of propulsion will be developed that involves remaining still and pulling the fabric of the universe past you,, that way you are not violating the speed of light as you are stationary,,
I have read articles about warping spacetime to get around Relativity but the concept is essentially the same thing as the way gravity warps spacetime. With our current understanding of the laws of nature the only way scientists know of to warp spacetime is with gravity and the only way to create gravity is with mass. LOTS of mass.
If we can gain some understanding of how to control the Higg's Boson we might be able to manipulate gravity but I think it's something that may require huge amounts of energy. Something on a scale that might be unpractical for any starship less than planet-sized.
