What it is
A 2017 Starship Congress lecture by physicist Miguel Alcubierre, the originator of the Alcubierre warp drive metric, on faster-than-light travel in general relativity. It is hosted by Icarus Interstellar and runs about 73 minutes.

Most writers? Not knowledgeable ones. Alcubierre does not take the idea seriously himself, here is a lecture by the man himself [this video]
Cites Martin Vesely · 2021-03 · Physics Stack Exchange · on “Will an Alcubierre Drive arrive before a beam of light, if sent between two stationary observers?”
@foolo: Exactly, that is a conclusion Mr. Alcubierre come to as well. See his lecture on his drive: [this video] If the answer is OK for you, may I ask you to accept it?
Cites Attila Janos Kovacs · 2024-01 · Physics Stack Exchange · on “How does the "York time" measure the expansion of space; why is it equal to the divergence of the comoving observer's four velocity for warp drive?”
What you write is completely wrong. Warp drive research is now an exciting and broad branch at the forefront of spacetime physics, with many respected scientists. Alcubierre is just one of its founders and has been a major figure ever since. Would you hold such conferences on a frivolous topic? Learn from them. [this video] , [LINK] , @m4r35n357
