Using Black Holes to Traverse the Universe with Dr. David Kipping
The Halo Drive, using a laser to gain fuel free relativistic propulsion from a black hole. By shooting a laser close to the event horizon of a black hole, Dr. David Kipping's conceptual star drive could lead to traveling across the milky way from one black hole to another as well as techno signatures from advanced civilizations that might already be using this intergalactic relay system.
