Hyper-space navigation hypothesis for interstellar exploration
Abstract
A hyperspace navigation hypothesis is presented which removes the theoretical limitations that make the interstellar travel impossible. The hyperspace is defined as a cleft Minkowski space whose continuity is fractured. Lorentz transformations are performed on hyperspace and real space, and the time transformation is then carried out by the method of analytical continuation on the elapsed time of a spacecraft. It is then shown that, at a quasi-light velocity, a spaceship can travel to stars that are 253 light years away in just 100 hrs. A technical method of plunging into hyperspace using quantum mechanics is described.
