Que about braking when in Warp speed?

My husband proposed a very thought provoking question.  When a ship is in warp speeds and it needs so slow down and come to a stop.   How do they do that?  Does the ship have braking flaps somewhere…Continue

The glob flies are remarkably annoying this time of year. If the one feels so inclined to take the hand of every cleaned-and-pressed academy graduate that wanders, bumbling, through their military career, I will certainly not stand in the…

Qu'vatlh! My attention to details is flawless, but contrary to common belief, the Fek'lhr lies not in the details but in the context in which they are communicated; I know this, for in my travels I have pursued and subdued this…

loghaD! How is it that you've survived this long, paying so little note to detail? No one has suggested that reverse thrusters be used to halt a vessel travelling at warp speed. I only even mention them as a method of halting the vehicle once…

Aye, but if warp drive is anything like an Alcubierre drive, decelerating the ship wouldn't necessarily require any net force on the ship itself; what you'd need to do is flatten the region of spacetime surrounding it.

What's the old rule about the Newton's First law of Motion?   If a body is at rest it remains at rest or if it is in motion it moves with uniform velocity until it is acted on by a resultant force.   With "Breaking" I…

I don't think thrusters would help all that much; the main mechanism for stopping would be the collapsation of the warp field (the subspace displacement field which allows ships to travel at superluminal velocity).   Indeed, if warp drive…

That is what I kinda thought too.  Just like they would use on the Space shuttle or any other type of space craft.

Flaps would do precious little in slowing a vehicle, as there is no atmosphere to generate resistance. Dropping out of warp is such a drastic deceleration that it often appears that the vehicle actually stops, by comparison. Reverse thrusters are…

Que about braking when in Warp speed?

My husband proposed a very thought provoking question.  When a ship is in warp speeds and it needs so slow down and come to a stop.   How do they do that?  Does the ship have braking flaps somewhere like on a jet aircraft?
