Would Unobtainium be the perfect fuel for the Alcubierre drive?
DylanMilliren
Since the Alcubierre drive would require exotic matter and specifically matter with a negative energy density, unobtanium might be a perfect fuel (presuming that its a consumable) given the significant overlap of a theoretical material with such a broad definition.

What is an Alcubierre drive?
An Alcubierre drive is a hypothetical means of faster-than-light propulsion, based on the controlled contraction and expansion of surrounding space.
Does the Alcubierre Drive have something with Einstein's theory of relativity?
Yes, the Alcubierre Drive relates to a solution to one of Einstein's field equations in his General Theory, although the solution itself does not imply that creation of the drive itself would be a practical endeavor; it remains in the realm of theory.
What is negative energy in physics?
what I mean is, the alcubierre drive needs negative energy to work so what are the properties of negative energy
What is the Alcubierre drive?
An Alcubierre drive is a hypothetical engine which is capable of faster than light travel by enveloping the spacecraft in a bubble of curved spacetime. This shell is allowed to travel faster than light, the spacecraft moving less than the speed of light inside the shell. The drive does require the existence of a type of exotic matter; matter with an imaginary mass. Such matter has never been observed and is considered highly speculative.
Will we ever have Star ships like in Star Trek?
Well... The Alcubierre metric, also known as the Alcubierre drive or Warp Drive, is a speculative mathematical model of a spacetime exhibiting features reminiscent of the fictional "warp drive" from Star Trek, which can travel "Faster-than-light" In 1994, the Mexican physicist Miguel Alcubierre proposed a method of stretching space in a wave which would in theory cause the fabric of space ahead of a spacecraft to contract and the space behind it to expand.[1] The ship would ride this wave inside a region known as a warp bubble of flat space. Since the ship is not moving within this bubble, but carried along as the region itself moves, conventional relativistic effects such as time dilation do not apply in the way they would in the case of a ship moving at high velocity through flat spacetime. So, maybe... but there are lots...
What is the future perfect tense of 'drive'?
The future perfect tense of 'drive' is 'will have driven'.
Is the Flux Capacitor from Back to the Future a Alcubierre drive?
The proposal that the fictitious flux capacitor from "Back to the Future" was an Alcubierre drive is rather unlikely, since there was no association with time travel effects related to relativistic speeds; no exotic matter was present nor negative energy densities required, only a comparatively meager one point twenty-one gigawatts was necessary for the flux capacitor; further, the Delorian only reached 88 miles per hour which is well short of light speed required for operation of the Alcubierre drive. However, since both paradigms currently remain in the realm of fiction, one can always appeal to further fictions for speculative explanations for these and other apparent contradictions.
Would Alcubierre's warp drive in theory create an additional speed to real-space velocity or be a multiplier for it?
I'm not sure that it's possible to answer the question in any meaningful way. Under the Alcubierre metric, what matters is the speed of propagation of the Alcubierre ring/bubble; anything in it is really just "carried along for the ride". It's likely largely irrelevant anyway, since the energies required appear to be enormous (many orders of magnitude more than is in the entire universe to create a bubble large enough to transport anything of significant size). This is not just a minor technical problem that could be overcome by futuristic energy production methods, this is saying that converting the entire universe to energy, should we somehow be able to do that, would not be enough.
What is future perfect tense of to drive?
will have driven.
Would has taken be past or present participle?
Don't understand your question. But this is what I think:'Would has taken' is not correct.'Would have taken' is correct. Use have for all persons and past participle.I guess this is the second clause in a conditional sentence.If I could drive I would have taken the car . If she could drive she would have taken the car.If they were hungry they would have eaten more.
What is the present perfect tense of you drive to town?
driving into town
