So could an ion drive, but you might have to hang around for a few billion years before anything started happening...

So the answer to your question is No. A fraction of the speed of light is not greater than the SOL. It seems like the only person using the SF term "Hyperdrive" is the blogger. -----Original Message----- From: dba-tech-bounces at databaseadvisors.com [mailto:dba-tech-bounces at databaseadvisors.com] On Behalf Of Jim Lawrence Sent: Monday, October 12, 2009 4:00 PM To: 'Discussion of Hardware and Software issues' Subject: [dba-Tech] Hyperdrive Propulsion Could Be Tested at the Large Hadron Collider A hyper drive populsion system is being mathematically created... Is faster than light speeds possible? http://www.technologyreview.com/blog/arxiv/24211 According to these calculations it is possible.
