Warp-field experiments are a series of currently ongoing experiments being conducted by NASA. They aim to detect and create instances of space-time warping. The ultimate goal is to prove or disprove the possibility of space-time metric engineering with reasonable energy requirements.

The only publically known warp-field experiment is one being conducted by Harold White and his team at NASA. It aims to detect microscopic instances of space-time warping. The intent is to generate an Alcubierre warp bubble.

They aim to evaluate many ideas, specifically a reimagined energy-density topology as well as an implication of brane cosmology theory. If space really were to be embedded in higher dimensions, the energy requirements could be lessened intensely and a reasonably minor energy density could already lead to a curvature of space-time that could be measured by an interferometer, for instance. It has been described how torodial positive energy density may end up with a spherical negative-pressure region, feasibly disregarding the requirement of any exotic matter. This make warp drive all the more probable.u
