Doing some research for a marketing name, so is Warp speed 7 times the speed of light ? is that the fastest the enterprise can go ?

it's loosely based on the curve of space time being warped. say take a peice of paper, folding the paper in half with the ends touching and moving from one end to the paper to the other of end the paper without traveling across the paper... from that point on it's just TV... -
Fastest speed which enterprise D had was Warp 10,but in series there was achieved bigger speeds too.Comment

No its incremental. Warp 1 is light speed, then after it gets crazy. You should be able to google that.Comment

Looking again, I guess maybe warp 9 is 1000 times... 7 is maybe 600 times, I need something to line that graph up.Comment
-
it's just a bit faster than ludicrous speed but not quite plaid.

Yeah, which enterprise do you mean, and to dork it up, in the TNG show there was some thing about spacetime being damaged with warp travel, I think esp. faster than warp 6 or something so then they started to try and use high speeds only in emergencies.
oh man.

actually Paris on Voyager was the first to ever achieve warp ten, when he did he slipped into every location in the universe simultaneously which caused him to evolve at an extremely accelerated rate turning into a fish, frog kind of thing and he banged Janeway and they spawned
Warp 10 is a no-no
before it was warp 9.9 but no one could break through that barrierLast edited by spazlabz; 08-12-2011, 08:52 AM.Comment

if memory serves me correct, to time travel to fetch the humpback whales, they had to achieve warp 9.9, but exceeded that in a romulan war bird
star trek IV (i think)nothing to promoteComment
-
Well so what is the fastest speed a ship has achieved in ST, it can be enterprise or the romulan war bird ?
I thought Wrap speed was 7 times the speed of light but Warp 9 sounds cool.Comment

i fucker this hooker once and got warps all over my cock....

They just add more .99999's to warp 9
Each one makes it faster as you approach 10Comment
-
Oh, then they have transwarp which is faster than regular warp.Comment

The limit of 10 did not entirely stop warp inflation. By the mid-24th century, the Enterprise-D could travel at warp 9.8 at "extreme risk", while normal maximum operating velocity was warp 9.6 and maximum rated cruise was warp 9.2. The Intrepid-class starship Voyager has a maximum sustainable cruising velocity of warp 9.975, the Enterprise-E can go even faster at Warp 9.985Comment

haha copied it from wikipedia, but I knew about all the stuff, just not the exact #'s
I mean, I just googled it.Comment

dont forget transwarp will you...

no idea, as i have only seen star trek1Comment

I ran across some official Star Trek manuel thing many years ago, in it there was a passage that said warp 8 was equal to 512 times the speed of light.

I was under the impression Warp 10 was impossible - even in the later shows. Warp 8 was standard in the old shows, and something above 9 was the later shows "standard".
:D

Actually they kind of fucked it up.
"Warp" is the ability to travel faster than light but without going back in time.
What they had to do in Trek 4 was go back in time. The movie text basically had them zooming towards the sun using its gravity to pull them past the speed of light without going into warp, thereby sending them back in time. However the dialog is kind of fucked up as they ignored even their own rules, basic science, and even some star trek science. Doesn't really matter though, it was still a fun movie.Comment

Wow I'm nominating this for the GFY "Geekiest Thread Ever" award.
Having said that, my boyfriend says that Warp 10 is the theoretical highest warp you can go. He then went on to explain that Warp is not a speed in the traditional sense of the word, it's the warping of spacetime to get between one location and another quicker. And then I dozed off a little.Comment

That's right - Warp was actually a way of bending space/time without pushing past light speed - which in theory would take you back in time, force you to confront space/time conflicts, etc...
Warp was actually a measured pop-in/pop-out point that allowed them to retain real space time as an envelope around the ship without losing hundreds or thousands of years in time back on earth or in "real time".
But it still makes sense with Trek 4 since they "used" real light-speed to go back without resorting to warp.
Still, Warp 8 was max in the old show. And they had a higher "cruising" warp speed after the Excelsior or after the next gen show or something... I'm a little fuzzy after or because of the whole weird Crusher/Riker fuzzibiliousness...
:D

I'm waiting for Currently Sober to say something about the poo....Comment

In which historical dimension?
The recent movie has an entire alternate arc of history thanks to JJ Abrams.
So, there are a potentially infinite number of alternate 'realities' and therefore an infinite number of speeds reached.
In short, the possibilities are limitless ;)Comment

Funny but i remember in one trek series there was even warp 14 mentioned which dont have sense if warp 10 is infinite speed.Comment

Whats the miles per crystal for warp 10?Comment
great info in your previous post I should have looked there as well 
Paris hit Warp 10 in a modified shuttle
