This Defense Intelligence Reference Document, dated 29 March 2010 and prepared by the Defense Intelligence Agency, is one of a series of advanced technology reports produced in FY 2009 under the Advanced Aerospace Weapon System Applications (AAWSA) Program. It uses a metric tensor approach from general relativity to catalog the physical effects of engineering spacetime, such as altered time, mass, light speed and antigravity. It concludes that such concepts, including warp drives, are consistent with physics, but that the energy requirements remain daunting.

Thus the first entry for a table of physical effects (see Table 1) is made. Given that frequency measurements are the reciprocal of time duration measurements, the associated expression for frequency w is given by w ➔ w.ji;:;, our second entry in Table 1. This accounts, for example, for the redshifting of atomic emissions from dense masses where .Ji;:; 1, blueshifting of emissions would occur. In addition, given that quanta of energy are given by E =he,;, energy scales with .Ji;:;, as does frequency, E ➔ E.ji;:;, our third entry in the table. Depending on the value of .Ji;:; in the spacetime-altered region, energy states may be raised or lowered relative to an unaltered spacetime region. 1 An observer at "infinity." 3 UNCLASSIFIED/ /P9Pl 8PPI@Itlit '1181!! 8HLV
