The Use of Lasers Could Detect Alien Warp Drives

The physicists also note that advanced alien warp drives would create gravitational wave patterns that are distinguishable from natural sources and if detected, these alien waves could give humans clues on how to reverse engineer the technology.

“This is because the shape of the GW signal is entirely dependent on the trajectory of the object. Thus, as a burst signal is detected, one can attempt to reason the qualities of the transportation mechanism present based on the shape of the GW signal." the researcher stated.
