You actually do hit the planet, or at least its mass shadow.
Basically the warp bubble results in you being subatomic to the rest of the universe so actually hitting something is hard.
But you are bigger than photons as that is why smartbombs kill you while you are in warp. |

Basically warp bubble separates your ship from normal space, it then warps sapce so that it can cover ground at a faster rate. the reason it can go THROUGH solid matter is becuause the bubble warps space AROUND the ship, like putting a needle through bubbles, if its properly "lubricated" it will go right through without harming the bubble. |

Actually, there is an arcticle on FTL travel that is cnsidered EVE canon. Section 5 describes what we know as "warp drive", although it uses the name of "jump drive" instead. It also discusses all other means of FTL travel that can be found around EVE universe. |

Or maybe your neocom is projecting simulated visuals, so you don't go comepletely bat-sh1te insane from trying to wrap you brain around the signals you would be receiving if you attempted to view the warp tunnel with your bare eyes...

What you perceive as a planet is mostly empty space on an atomic level. If you are harmonically dissonant to the native frequency of of that lump of perceived solid, you will pass through it as though it wasn't there.
Stick that in your pipe and smoke it, OP.

Non-sense. The current real world thinking model about a warp drive is that you use a force in fron of the craft that contracts space and a force behind it that extracts space again. So you travel at maybe 50% the speed of light but still cover a distance that is way more you could have traveled without the contraction / extraction. So if you do a simple v = distance / time it looks like you were going faster than light.
In fact, this is not even remotely possible because, even if you could create the contract / extract bubble, in the process fo warping there would be molekules / matter trapped inside the bubble which is released upon the landing (collapse of the warp bubble) and would annihilate everything (explosive release of all the matter (energy)) in a defined radius. The radius grows the longer you stay in warp. |

dam it im in work atm so could someone please link a vid of the explanation given in cowboy bebop on why things in hyperspace can not interact with anything from reality, thats the theory i always go with when i go through a planet station or star. |

I always thought the ship got wrapped in a bubble with negative friction and thus is physically incapable of exerting any force on any matter outside the bubble. And the reason there is a maximum speed for ships is that the inactive warp core causes friction on space and manoeuvring is done via shifting friction on one side or another, like a tank, not with thrusters, microwarpdrives reducing the general friction, thus allowing higher speeds and the engine exhaust is just super heated plasma used for heat sinking.

As far as I understand this theory, you create a bubble around your ship which contains local 'normal-spacetime'. You can displace this entire bubble towards another point in our three-dimensional space.
So, you don't travel through anything, you transport local space through higher dimensions towards your destination
Hahaha What trully amuses me it's that Prof. Farnsworth was right.. it's not the ship who moves but the universe who travels faster than light.. Futurama was right!!!
On the other hand i always tought most of capsuleer dislike the ***Loading*** screen after warp , and somewhat they preferred a gradual displacement of the Virtual view provided by the pod.

warping through a planet has that funnel graphic that kind of makes it acceptable.
it is the warping through a station (when you warp after un-docking) that i find problematic in accepting as plausible. |

Well if you timed it right you could come out of warp inside the station and thus get around the door.
But it would take a tactical genius to do so. |

No. Time "runs slower" IN a gravity well. When astronauts come back to Earth they have actually experienced MORE time than we did.
Starting from the point where you got the basic assumption backwards, the rest is... just, no. |
