How fast would you theoretically have to travel through space in order to reach warp speed?

I know that's a Trekkie kind of question, but I've always wondered how fast they were going in order just to get up to warp one, and also how far they would travel.How fast would you theoretically have to travel through space in order to reach warp speed?The general idea is that warp one is the speed of light. According to the Star Trek episode writer's guide for The Original Series, warp factors are supposedly converted to multiples of c with the cubic function s(w) = w^3ch, where w is the warp factor, s(w) is the velocity, and c is the speed of light. Accordingly, "warp 1" is equivalent to the speed of light, "warp 2" is eight times the speed of light, "warp 3" is 27 times the speed of light, et cetera. However, this conflicts with the story line when it is going much faster so it is best described as being the speed of plot rather than any realistic speed.How fast would you theoretically have to travel through space in order to reach warp speed?
Well warp doesn't exist they were purposefully general and vague. But its far beyond what we know as physically possible considering they fly through the over 4 lightyears rather void like area in seconds. It's a nice idea but that's all but do consider that the Trek's after the initial Star Trek they did have astronomer advisers and what not but they wanted to make it more entertaining that's all.How fast would you theoretically have to travel through space in order to reach warp speed?In the real universe, there's no such thing as warp speed. And don't bother trying to figure out the picky details about Star Trek. You'll only find the inconsistencies and the impossibilities and become disappointed in the story. When Geordi LaForge (himself a rather implausible feature) starts prattling technobabble, just go "uh huh" and groove along with it.
umm well if it takes 70 years to travel across half the galaxy at warp 7 (USS Voyager) then i think its about 50k lightyears in 490 years at warp 1 (TNG scale) so i think (my maths isnt that great and im tierd right now) about 0.3 light years a day or 125 billion kilometers/hour or suminlike that feel free to correct me peopleHow fast would you theoretically have to travel through space in order to reach warp speed?You'd have to travel, really really really really really really really really really really really really fast...



Until there's more and better technology, like really really really really really really really really advanced technology, we won't know...How fast would you theoretically have to travel through space in order to reach warp speed?
The trekkie answer is that warp one is 1^3 = 1 = light speed; warp 2 = 2^3 = 8 x light speed; warp 3 = 3^3 = 27X light speed. In actuality, no one knows if warp engines are possible or what kind of laws they would obey if they did exist

That is science fiction. There is no such way to measure speed like that.
