Phantom energy

Phantom energy is an exotic form of dark energy that possesses negative energy, and predicts expansion of the universe which leads to a Big Rip. This is exotic energy in which a vacuum is unstable with negative mass particles bursting into existence via averaged null energy conditions (ANEC).

Uses:


 * Keeps traversable wormholes open, which use a relatively small amount of ANEC-violating energy, but need to be located in a region of flat space.
 * Used for communication wormholes, which use a much larger amount of ANEC-violating energy.
 * Reactionless and perpetual motion drives
 * Stabilizing the void or warp bubbles used in warp drives
