Description
In other words, don't ask. There have been a lot of ideas as to how to travel faster than light, from space warps from Star Trek, hyperdrives from Star Wars, FTL from the now BSG, jump gates from Babylon 5, quantum slipstream from Andromeda, starburst from Farscape, and who knows what else.

Excellent images and really excellent explination. You broke it down nicely for us unwashed masses. Cool.

What about the solar sail? couldn't that go as fast as light even though it has mass? =P Either way, good explanation.
