🥺 Could aliens have left tracks in the intergalactic highways? A team of researchers are pondering the concept, writing in a new paper that the collapse of a warp bubble — based on the hypothetical warp drive idea that a spacecraft could travel faster than the speed of light — could generate detectable gravitational waves. And that, the thinking goes, could aid us in our search for alien life. There are a few, er, difficulties with this proposition. One, the existence of a spacecraft that can conquer the speed of light would require us to rewrite the laws of physics. Another "key challenge is stability," the researchers write. But it is a fascinating thought experiment.
