What are the more or less accepted theoretical methods for faster than light travel? I know about warp drive and wormholes but is there any other?

>inb4 it's impossible

I know that it's very unlikely that we will achieve it in the foreseeable future and I'm willing to accept that it's not even possible however I'm interested in the somewhat more realistic approaches.

None that I am aware of.
>>
>>8914332
Any other methods requires you to make up shit that doesnt exist.

Like using an underspace that doesnt obey the laws of physics to move faster than light then exit back into ordinary space.

As for how FTL can be achieved, all you have to do is find a way to stop mass from increasing as your speed increases which is impossible.

The way this universe works seems like whatever made it intended for only the brightest organisms to travel in space.

I've always found shit like this to be really interesting. The level of conjugation makes sense as to why they have such vibrant colors, but until learning about hemoglobin's structure, I never knew it was so similar to chlorophyll.

I guess you could get a lander that drops some sort of probe in a nuclear-heated shell that slowly and steadily melts through, but you still have the issue of getting the data back to Earth. A wireless connection to the lander on the surface is out of the question but making a 20+km wired connection is almost equally futile.

Any ideas?

>20+km wired connection is almost equally futile
That's actually not that much wire, especially if you're NASA who can come up with some sort of very thin yet strong wire. The boring probe would carry a spool with it during its descent, and the ice refreezing above the boring probe would support the wire. It would only have to transmit data since the part melting through the ice would already have onboard power from the RTG. That would let you use something like a single strand of fiber optic cable which is extremely thin and threadlike yet reasonably strong. That would provide plenty of bandwidth for several HD video streams up to the lander on the surface, at the very least.

tl;dr: stop being a know it all

Why not install wireless relays at intervals as it drills down
Drill into the wall of the hole and push an rf transmitter-receiver into it

I suppose there's always pic related.

Europa has geysers though - so it can't be that thick everywhere.

Would need several exploratory expeditions to find sweet spots though, so I kinda doubt we'll find anything within the century, if there's anything to find.

Whats the most efficient way to compute every prime from 0 to n without errors?

is using the sieve of Eratosthenes a good choice? I just feel like there could be a more efficient way to do this.
