Every Star Trek Warp Speed Effect; 1979 - 2022

Okay I know Discovery's spore drive isn't a 'Warp Speed Effect' and neither is the Protostar's Protostar Drive or whatever the hell it's called, but they're both still cool, so they're included anyway. K thx bye :D

I do not own any clips or music in this video, and in no way intend to gain from them. All clips are the property of Paramount Studios (The Starfleet Admiral of all these shows :D) & The Affiliated Corporations, including Amazon Prime (ST: Picard, Lower Decks), CBS Network (Many things idk I just know it's there), Paramount + (legit everything) and Netflix (Star Trek: Discovery).

[@jay_randombs4182]

Huh. This has a fair few views. Okay so a few things - 1. Yes, Yes, I know Discovery's Spore Drive ain't warp drive, but it looks cool, so it's there. 2. TOS and TAS didn't have any warp 'effects' - they just said they were at warp. So there's no warp effects to include. Hence it's absent. 3. This video is of all the EFFECTS, not every single warp jump. If you're complaining because I missed a warp jump, it's not because I'm not aware of it - it's because the effect wasn't unique enough to be considered different (to me, at least. And yes, I know I missed the warp effect from the end of TWOK. Sorry :( ) And here's my main channel. Cause this video went viral. And I want clout. kzbin.info

Yeah when I saw that movie at it's release in '79 I was nine years old. They were definitely trying to jazz up the special effects due to star wars and it's many re releases. I was already a SW junkie and while I did watch trek on TV, this was the first time I was wow'd.

I miss how the warp engines on the old Enterprise only lit up when the ship went to warp speed. They used to also show the impulse engine shutting down. And the big dish in front glowed bright blue from dull gold, it was neat to see that the ship sort of came alive and in her element...But the -D's engines always seem to be on, they flair up when the ship 'stretches out' to warp. Maybe if they stayed brighter..?

[@Jaymac720]

I love the Into Darkness effect so much. To be fair, the trail it leaves behind doesn’t make any sense whatsoever, but it still looks fantastic. Also the way the ship distorts as the engines engages, the whirring up, then the *BOOM* as it’s gone, plus the way it lines up with the absolutely excellent theme. Tingles every time

[@OpenGL4ever]

Star Trek (2009) has the best warp speed effect in my opinion. When a ship goes to warp, it must immediately disappear from the outside observer's view. Star Trek (2009) nailed this situation best.

[@Majima_Nowhere]

I especially like the sonic boom effect. The warp coil whine is great too, but there's just something great about a loud "POP" then the ship is gone.

[@SilverBazooka10]

I always look for the sounds. The pine trilogy had some of the best thump sounds as the ship jumps into warp. And Discovery has by far the most unique, and my personal favourite of the glitchy squeezy jump noises when it uses its spore drive.

[@bobbun9630]

In space no one can hear you scream. But they can definitely hear you go to warp.

Well that makes sense since warp compresses and decompresses space. One would expect the ripples to produce vibrations in atomic bonds as the space between the atoms increases and decreases with the change in spacetime.

[@WatDoino]

I was really impressed by the 2009 version when I saw it. Like shooting a gun with a flash of light. Still the best in my opinion to depict the near instant effect of warp speed. Also the warp bubble was very cool in the 2016 version. It’s like a gravity wake effect.

The other is the MK12 6th-phase matter/anti matter warp engine wich used the Sovereign-class(Enterprise-E).

I have no idea what traveling faster than light would look like (if one could actually observe it!), but...I think the wake effect with spacetime compression up front in Beyond seems to be most "realistic". 4:11 - 4:15.

[@rebel2809]

it would probably be completely black since light wouldnt be keeping up

[@nbartlett6538]

To an observer, there would be a huge burst of blue Cherenkov radiation. We can actually observe objects travelling faster than light at the moment: the speed of light in a dense medium such as water is lower than the speed of light in a vacuum, therefore when a charged particle travelling at the speed of light enters water, it is now travelling faster than the speed of light for that medium. The radiation that results is very much like the sonic boom heard when a plane travelling faster than the speed of sound passes overhead.

[@Mrbluefire95]

@@rebel2809Not exactly. We’d still be moving toward a light source, but it might not necessarily be in the visible range. All light our eyes run into would be blue shifted, due to the Doppler effect. Of course, continual blue shifting until it reaches ionizing radiation (invisible) could happen, but at that point the ship would be atomized without any kind of shielding. I’d imagine because of that, the view would be perpetually a giant blue glow. Like the Star Wars visual, except much less defined.

[@clankplusm]

@@nbartlett6538 warp drives usually are using alcubierre principle in which case they actually don’t have relativistic speed

The bubble isn't actually all that far off from what an outside observer would see, though it would really just be one bubble and not a wake. Another strange effect I've never seen done in cinema is that things will appear tinted blue when looking forward and red while looking backwards.

[@Mazra42]

I tend to agree, although those aren't stars going by. Always confused the hell out of me, because even at warp 9.9, most of the stars would appear to be almost static due to the sheer distance between shit out there. Which is probably why they "updated" the effect to a more modern understanding of how light would appear when moving faster than it.

[@Yaapo]

@@Mazra42 Were those not stars? Do you know what they were?

[@SpookyZalost]

@@Yaapo not stars. Those are particles of interstellar dust interacting with the warp field, becoming charged with hawking radiation, and being deflected by the deflector. Without that you'd have highly charged particles ripping the hull to shreds.

1:44 This is actually a shot of the very first fully CGI Enterprise in Star Trek history. This CGI model was later converted to Lightwave 3D format and used in later seasons of Star Trek: Deep Space Nine.

見惚れました✨ 素晴らしくて、たまらない素敵ならコンテンツ ありがとう😊➰

[@Untruest]

I think the sound is what got much better

[@charlielee6198]

from 1979 until 2022, we are still ended up with warp speed. Interesting that we can hear sound of the Enterprise moving in space.

[@stevenewman1393]

🖖😎👍You do mean 1979 to 2022 , Any ways very well nicely done and very well executed indeed👌.

[@thewiirocks]

The Original Series and Animated Series didn't have a warp effect. The stars just went by fairly fast in some of the external shots. TMP was the first time we had a warp speed effect on screen. Which is kind of weird when you think about it. A good chunk of what we think of as Star Trek tropes were founded in TMP and popularized in TNG. (Just saw the 1976 title. Looks like someone missed a key on the old numpad.)

Into Darkness Had The Best Warp Speed Effects, IMO. Add in the USS Vengeance chasing down the Enterprise at warp speed was epic.

God I feel old. I've seen every one of these as they came out, starting wit hthe motion picture.

[@videovideo166]

thanks man!

[@ImAmirus]

funny how they go from lightshow to realistic to lightshow to whatever weird liquid space

[@justinsmith5218]

The 2009 warp just does it for me... Remember getting unnecessarily hype at the theatre when I first saw it

[@fipskirchinger319]

Wow, havn´t realized that the Excelsior II class is canon now :) That makes me happy today.

[@jamesdillon5862]

Still haven't figured out how detaching Discovery's warp nascell improved maneuverability.

[@djkuhl]

Discovery is like the Ghostbusters 3 Movie. It should be ignored from all other shows for how much fiction took from the science. From the stupid shroom drive to the high school art project floaty nacelles. The whole premise a guy can scream and destroy the galaxy just about made me blind from how hard I rolled my eyes.

[@Xerxes2005]

I have had the same question and the only answer I've found is that it's all about mass distribution. Since you don't need nacelles when you're not into warp, having the nacelles detached makes it easier on impulse engines and thrusters.

[@JRGProjects]

The Wrath of Kahn was the best, the electric growl was a nice touch.

[@mrb.5610]

Used to like the sound of the warp engines in TOS. Missed that in the later ones !!

[@kalebmaxwell5725]

Still to this day, my dad uses the Star Trek 09' opening to test audio equipment for home theatres.

[@GSF404]

The absolute best of them all is the Star Trek (2009) movie.

[@carlsagan2371]

Nice of you to include the fan-made movies by JJ. Abrams .
