Interstellar Highway System

Could advanced civilizations be using a network of black holes for interstellar travel? In our last video, the "halo drive" was discussed covering the basic physics of how this new system could potentially enable interstellar flight. Here, we go much deeper on the halo drive concept, answering many of the questions which have been raised, and going further by considering the possibilities of a galactic wide network of such systems.

This video is based on research conducted at the Cool Worlds Lab at Columbia University. You can now support our research program directly here: https://www.coolworldslab.com/support
