Top TV/Movie ways to Travel Faster than Light (That's FTL to the fanboys)

1. Hyperspace/subspace
The basic idea is that there exists an ultra condensed type of space somewhere outside of our reality. Entering Hyperspace, and travelling the same distance as normal space, leads to one having travelled further in our reality upon exiting. This imaginary type of space is called Hyperspace (usually). An alternate theory is that the laws of physics don't apply the same way in Hyperspace, so the laws of relativity that limit mass to the speed of light, no longer apply here. This is used in everything from Star Trek, to Stargate, Star wars...I guess anything with the word star in it.

2. Warp Drive
We all know where this comes from..and trust Star trek to have the one method with some factual viability! The theoretical method is actually referred to by physicists as the Alcubierre drive (or Alcubierre metric) but the principal is the same. Space can be stretched or dilated, which is the defining element of Einstein's General Theory of Relativity. By that logic, if one stretches a small part of space, flies over it, then returns it to regular length, they will have travelled further than through normal space. The Alcubierre drive in question creates localised areas of stretching, and like elastic, the ships ride the wave.

3.Wormholes
Technically called an Einstein-Rosen bridge, a wormhole is a theoretical 'tunnel' that connects two points of spacetime, whilst avoiding the need for mass to technically travel through the distance/space between them. Whilst technically possible, naturally occurring wormholes are highly unlikely. Furthermore, they present an unusual problem. Minkowski space is composed of 3 space dimensions and one time dimension, which are connected into one entity, so called space time. As such, a wormhole can potentially cause travel not just through space, but time as well, and in doing so, violate causality, one of the basic principals of the physical world. It is thus theorised that any wormhole would be 'unstable' meaning that no classical information would actually be able to pass through without compound errors being introduced which would collapse the whole thing. Alternate soultions suggest that the wormhole would collapse before anythign could get from one side to the other.
A theoretical version of an artificial wormhole was proposed called a Krasnikov tube, which apparently allows for stable FTL travel without violating causality, but calculations by subsequent physic ts have placed this into doubt.
Wormholes were a central plot point in Australian series Farscape, as well as Star Trek DS9, Stargate, and Babylon 5 [so called jump gates, which more closely resemble Krasnikov tubes]

4.Black holes
The principle here is similar to with wormholes. Black holes are are specific form of singularity, which in physics terms means that they are formed by a super-dense gravity field, which causes spacetime to become so warped that its curvature effectively becomes infinite. The theory is that this infinite curvature has a solution, in the creation of a link with another entity. Some postulate this could be an entirely new universe, while some theorise this could connect to another 'White Hole' as an exit point, similar to the exit of a wormhole. However the fact is, that this is all speculation, and furthermore, the nature of a Black hole arguable destroys information entering it [in a classical sense. Various quantum theories have been designed to explain how Unitarity is maintained and thus conservation of energy, but for all intents and purposes, its a dead end]. The film Event Horizon had a graviton drive that caused FTL travel through creation of artificial black holes. Obviously the science was a little ropey - after all, how do you scientifically explain the ship ending up in a hell dimension?
