What is the first thing you do when we finally develop FTL travel?

Me? I want to find some planet with intelligent life, sneak down, mutilate a few of their livestock, and leave mysterious circles in the field crops.

I have two questions.

1. What is FTL travel?

2. What are you smoking?

Faster Than Light (FTL)??? What I'd want to do would be a planet fly-by in our solar system ... get a good close view of each. Yep.

Cool

Now, the other question?

Yeah, but wouldn't that require the Theory of Everything first? (Legit question: I honestly don't know).

Perhaps, but perhaps not. However, even if it does not, the engineering needed is, to say the least of things, a long way down the road.

Update on the Alcubierre drive: no new physics needed, but one helluva lot more engineering.


I'd like to visit the stars in the Milky Way and check out the ones with planets.

That'd really require amazingly FTL speeds since many of the stars we see are hundreds, thousands or million's of light years away. You figure our nearest neghbour is about 4 LY away and Beteljuice (Orion Constellation) is some 500 LY away. When we deal with space ... seems like the bigger the number the more accurate the answer probably is (except MAYBE the number of life supporting planets??).

Ah, yes, Fermi's paradox.

I could also, at least in theory, be able to visit inside an Event Horizon and return to tell the tale.

We got exactly one so far, but with FTL travel, I'll bet we could put that question to bed!

As long as we wake up remembering what we found. Seriously, there are so many stars with so many planets with so many variables ... I wonder if we'll ever really know. I'm almost more confident that if other life does exist ... maybe Europa or Titan or Enceladus may offer our best hope.
