  2. Hyperspace - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hyperspace

    t. e. In science fiction, hyperspace (also known as nulspace, subspace, overspace, jumpspace and similar terms) is a concept relating to higher dimensions as well as parallel universes and a faster-than-light (FTL) method of interstellar travel. Its use in science fiction originated in the magazine Amazing Stories Quarterly in 1931 and within ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Outline_of_space_science

    The science and engineering of spacefaring and spaceflight, a subset of Aerospace engineering (which includes atmospheric flight) Space technology is technology for use in outer space, in travel or other activities beyond Earth's atmosphere, for purposes such as spaceflight, space exploration, and Earth observation. Spaceflight. Human spaceflight

  4. Alcubierre drive - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alcubierre_drive

    The Alcubierre drive ( [alkuˈβjere]) is a speculative warp drive idea according to which a spacecraft could achieve apparent faster-than-light travel by contracting space in front of it and expanding space behind it, under the assumption that a configurable energy-density field lower than that of vacuum (that is, negative mass) could be created.

    Early life. Tsiolkovsky was born in Izhevskoye [] (now in Spassky District, Ryazan Oblast), in the Russian Empire, to a middle-class family.His father, Makary Edward Erazm Ciołkowski, was a Polish forester of Roman Catholic faith who relocated to Russia; his Russian Orthodox mother Maria Ivanovna Yumasheva was of mixed Volga Tatar and Russian origin.

  6. Space physics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Space_physics

    Space physics, also known as space plasma physics, is the study of naturally occurring plasmas within Earth's upper atmosphere and the rest of the Solar System. It includes the topics of aeronomy, aurorae, planetary ionospheres and magnetospheres, radiation belts, and space weather (collectively known as solar-terrestrial physics [1] ).

  7. Anti-gravity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anti-gravity

    Anti-gravity (also known as non-gravitational field) is a hypothetical phenomenon of creating a place or object that is free from the force of gravity. It does not refer to either the lack of weight under gravity experienced in free fall or orbit, or to balancing the force of gravity with some other force, such as electromagnetism and ...

  8. Space - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Space

    Space. Space is a three-dimensional continuum containing positions and directions. [1] In classical physics, physical space is often conceived in three linear dimensions. Modern physicists usually consider it, with time, to be part of a boundless four-dimensional continuum known as spacetime. [2]
