We are still talking about FTL systems?
Well, here are the methods that I know of:
- Warp(Alcubierre) Drive
Possibly the most realistic of FTL drive system. The Warp drive contracts space in front of the ship, and expands space behind the ship, causing it to shift forwards.
- Wormhole Drive
Also hypothetically possible. The Wormhole Drive functions by creating an artificial wormhole for the ship to pass through.
(I believe this is the one silver mentioned earlier)
- Hyperspace Drive
This drive system opens a portal to "Hyperspace", a dimension where different laws of physics apply. This is the only FTL system in which the ship physically accelerates.
- Quantum Fold
This method causes quantum particles at the target destination to be artificially quantum entangled with the particles of the ship. The ship then sends out an impulse to "tell" the quantum particles that the ship is actually at the destination and not at it's current location.
The fold itself is instantaneous but the particles take some time to be entangled.
- Jump Gates
Simmilar to the Wormhole Drive. Instead of having a ship open a wormhole when needed, the Jump Gate keeps a two-way wormhole to a connected gate open.
