Scientists Moot Hyperdrive Plan

3-hour trips to Mars' bid
Scientists are thinking of building an extraordinary anti-gravity machine which - if it works - could make "hyperdrive" starships a reality.

The design is based on the ideas of a little-known but brilliant German physicist who modified Albert Einstein's theories of space and time. Burkhard Heim postulated a multidimensional world in which the forces of gravity and electromagnetism are coupled together.

Last year, a paper drawing on the concept won the American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics' Future Flight prize. It envisaged an engine that could not only defeat gravity but propel a space craft through multidimensional hyperspace at unbelievable speed.
