The distribution that's on the left around that center pillar, it's prismatic, right? It's a straight up and down kind of distribution. It's not a ring, which is what we might think about when we think about a space warp. So we said, all right, well, let's do a slightly different model. Let's make a sphere inside a cylinder, right?

And then let's study how the quantum field responds to that structure. And so the energy density distribution to that, the little green items there in the cartoon. the energy density distribution for that properly matches the requirements for the idea of a space warp. And so we published a paper. Yeah, this is significant, right?

Because before we did that, the only thing we could talk about in the literature was just the math, right? If somebody said, well, what might you build to make something like that? All we could do is just shrug our shoulders and go, I don't know, right? And so this allowed us to go through and say, hey โ Now we can propose a real structure that we can potentially โ and you can 3D print it.

There are 3D printers that print down to that level. We could 3D print those structures. Maybe some clever scientist will come up with a good experiment on how to go through and maybe study the optical properties of this. And somebody could do something like that where they could take our insights that we published in our paper โ

And then they could go 3D print some stuff and do some experiments to show that they can, hey, we've measured the change in optical properties associated with these little tiny warp bubbles that we're making on a chip, if you will. And so maybe that could be something a future scientist could do.

But this is the first time in the literature that we can actually say as a community, this is a real thing. that we could go make, and it's predicted to manifest a real warp bubble. It's not going to go anywhere. It's not going to do anything. But still, that's significant as a measure of a paradigm shift in our understanding. It's Leonardo da Vinci's drawing of โ That's a wonderful metaphor.
