Warp Drive: Part 2 – The Warp Field Coil
For centuries, humanity has dreamed of reaching distant stars. But space, vast and unforgiving, hasn’t made that dream easy. Even our closest stellar neighbor, Alpha Centauri, is 4.367 light-years away. With today’s fastest spacecraft, that journey would take tens of thousands of years.

Peer Review: How to Cheat
The consequences of our actions Let me open today’s blog post with this quote from Haug (2015) from “Peer-review fraud — hacking the scientific publication process” and all that it means: “The problem is the perverse incentive systems in scientific publishing.
