That's exactly what the alcubierre drive does. It in a sense, 'breaks' physics as we know. We still don't travel beyond the speed of light, ever. We simply just bend space to bring it closer to us. Ha, I said simply as if the process and possible side effects are nothing.

i may be able to help you out with this question.
Its a lot of typing though. But the answer is yes.
Also. Id ignore dark matter altogether and neutrinos. Mass both as resting and inertial are byproducts that can be prevented from forming.
Also the albacurrie drive is stupid. Id dismiss that one too. Its not how theyre doing it.

Crack anti matter and you have FTL.
Crack superposition quantum theory and you have a blink drive, also know as instant teleportation throught the universe.
My mind tells me that anti matter does not exist in this universe but in an equal yet opposite parallel universe.
In order to harness anti matter one would first need to master black hole relativity in hopes of creatinh a stable worm hole into an anti parallel universe.
Any mass construct of an anti parallel universe brought back into a local parallel universe would in theory have anti gravitative properties. Since mass is a function gravity without gravity mass would equal zero.

Its not how they do it.
The albacurrie drive or whatever you spell it has been discredited by physicists a while ago.
There are ways to perturb space time and the value of C exponentionally.
You know much about spontanious photon emission supression? Or how poynting vectors work?
As for einstiens relativity. Its mostly right but critically wrong with its geodesics.
Even einstein admitted it was a failure.
Bingo, it can be done. read the thread in my signature to get some glimpses

So to travel the speed of light or faster, you would need to contain no mass.
This in essence is the baffling question. We are mass, our spaceships are mass, everything we do, is mass. So my first query was to find something that contain no mass.

Often the question of most scientists. Can we travel faster then light and considering our aim to travel the stars and with recent findings of the new planet Proxima B it would be a good time to finally solve this mystery. However, this is obviously been a problem for science for many years now.

Neutrino's and Dark Matter
Neutrino are interesting as they are supposed to travel faster then light, I say supposed because this was quickly debunked by various science communities.
Other researchers are cautious about the result, but if it stands further scrutiny, the finding would overturn the most fundamental rule of modern physics—that nothing travels faster than 299,792,458 meters per second.
However the question always resided at, what did the establishment have to loose if this was true? After all, this would undermine physics as a whole. Maybe they wanted to stab it's public interest dead in the water.
Neutrinos can pass through all matter, as it is theorised that...
Neutrinos rarely interact with ordinary matter, and they easily pass through solids that would screen out most other particles. So neutrino beams could be used to send messages through the Earth, or to communicate with a planetary rover parked on the far side of Mars, out of radio contact.

With this in mind they are supposed to contain little to no mass.
What we do not see, however, is that the universe is filled with particles called neutrinos. These particles — have no charge and have little or no mass — created less than one second after the Big Bang, and large numbers of these primordial low-energy neutrinos remain in the universe today because they interact very weakly with matter.
Dark Matter is theorised emptiness, stated as nothing. However.....
Since nothing is just empty space or vacuum, it can expand faster than light speed since no material object is breaking the light barrier," said theoretical astrophysicist Michio Kaku on Big Think. "Therefore, empty space can certainly expand faster than light.
So dark matter is a substance that moves faster then light, dark matter is mass moving faster then light speed.

From the words of Michio Kaku, ''Therefore, empty space can certainly expand faster than light.'' With this being said and other experiments showing other findings, it would deem that there is substances that travel faster then light. With Dark matter being utilised as also not having mass, maybe this substance along with neutrinos and other mysterious particles can also be used to overall achieve a greater understanding of how we may as humans travel in the future faster then light or at least, send signals that are instantaneous.
With this interesting note at the end, "empty space" is actually full of temporary ("virtual") particles that continually form and then disappear.''

If so could mass be created virtually as we know it and sent as a ripple effect of data to be created on the other side of the coin we wish to reach. Therefore dissolving the mass problem of the equation as in essence we would be beaming messages or even humans to distant planets to be recreated or rather skipped along.
Similar to that of the famous Telsa experiment the Philadelphia Experiment.
It was at this point (the vanishing of the Eldridge) that the true power of the electromagnetic field that had been created was revealed. The Eldridge had not only vanished from the view of observers in Philadelphia, it had vanished from Philadelphia all together! The ship had been instantly transported several hundred miles - from Philadelphia to Norfolk, Virginia. After a few minutes, the ship once again vanished, to return to Philadelphia.

Spot on mate. Its more like instant travel or nearly so

Yes, we can do FTL travel, but there will be no real speed connected to it - ie. not in the 3rd dimensions.
We can do 4th dimension travel where we manipulate time and so space as well, meaning we can travel anywhere really, really quickly.
And then also quantum entanglement - I believe this is what ET's use to communicate, it's like sending a message and receiving it instantly on the other side, perhaps we can use this for travel purposes in the future.
not only the geodesic, but also he got the time aspect backwards
