Recent article that talks about the possibility of a working FTL drive that doesn't violate the laws of physics. It's kind of a mix between Star Trek warp drive and Traveller jump drive. Basically instead of you moving through space at FTL speeds, you use negative energy to create a bubble in space, and then you get the space around you to travel at FTL speeds. Or somesuch scientific bobbleheaded speak. To me its a bit of wordsmithing, but whatever gets you faster from point A to point B!
