The two researchers, Remo Garattini and Kirill Zatrimaylov, recently published a paper on warp drives going into a black hole. They found out that a warp drive can cross the black hole's horizon and send a light signal to the outside, and also that the black hole's gravitational field can reduce the amount of negative energy density required to sustain the warp bubble.
All in all, another milestone in understanding warp physics.

Sounds suspiciously like a plot device from the movie Interstellar….
How to make the warp drive in the first place?
