An interstellar multi-generational starship is going to take a LOT longer to design, fund and build than a year.
ANALYSIS: Warp Drives: Making the 'Impossible' Possible
We believe that during that inflationary period, space-time itself expanded at many times the speed of light, so there are tantalizing questions when you look at nature as a teacher. Is this something that can be duplicated around the vicinity of a spacecraft?"
Now, White thinks the drive could be powered by a collection of exotic mass about the size of NASA's Voyager 1 probe if the rings housing the mass were shaped like a donut and oscillate over tim

Well I believe that something big is gonna happen by the end of this year, something that will change the way we look at the universe and ourselves. Almost like ManBehindTheMask posted, but not Earth obliteration, Maybe! Hence this thingy is being built.
Kinda reminds me of the Matt Damon Movie, Elysium.
This Thread Should Go into Doom Porn.

If there is a known threat, it's going to be a long time down the line. It may have something to do with asteroid Apophis, due to swing around our neck of the woods sometime around 2029 and again in 2036.
NASA claims it will miss during the closest approach to Earth in the 2036 encounter...but admit it 'may' collide with our planet.
22 years might be enough time to get such a ship built, although if they are certain the asteroid will hit us, they would have worked on this ship for a long time already...perhaps this was the real reason for all of those $ Trillions being lifted from the public purse and not to prop up banks...it was to build this massive craft.

I'm with you...I don't have any evidence, but I believe we've got a space program that is entirely secret.
The problem with this is that as more and more commercial space projects get up and running, they won't be able to hide any kind of secret space program for very long.

Why do people persist in this "secret space program" nonsense?
First off, rocket launches are anything but secret. They cause a lot of noise and smoke.
So you'd suggest they have some rocketless technology? Ok then where are the photos of these ships?
I mean its not like you can just go up there unnoticed....
Taken by an amateur with a 9-inch telescope and video camera when the shuttle was flying:
You can't hide in low earth orbit.
This is where the UFO Conspiracy/Secret Space Program crowd go really off the rails. They don't know the technological capabilities to view things in space of just smart individuals much less professionals.
Even secret craft like the X-37B were first photographed by amateur astronomers. There's no hiding in the sky.

The "Doom" might be closer to home than ATSers think. The Earth might become extremely overpopulated, we run out of oil and other non-renewable resources, global wars, nuclear disasters, etc. And so a few thousands of the "chosen ones" might decided to leave us all to our sorry being and depart for a better place.
We take so much for granted. The water flows when we turn the faucet, it would only take a few bad years for the wells to dry up and a lot of the rivers. change can come very fast.

This is simply a feasibility "study" done by a handful of scientists who meet once a year to speculate on what it would take to build such a massive thing. Rest assured, no government is crazy enough to fund such a project and no "ark" is going to be built (which would likely bankrupt all of the governments in the world).

I've seen a "satellite" do a abrupt, perfect 90 degree turn. Until it did that, I assumed it was an ordinary sat like I've seen 100's of times.

Oh and they plan on their descendents coming back in a few thousand years, that is the reason for the Georgia Guidestones.

Maybe the chemtrails are being used to mask the sky so they can go into orbit without the risk of being seen.
