It is possible with a massive injection of energy from outside the universe... from aliens

you know...this didn't get a lot of press with the whole ftl neutrino thing competing, but this

If this holds up, this is a big deal. Right now it's just photons, but that doesn't rule out more in the future. Harvest virtual particles, split them for energy. Infinite new energy, prevent heat death of universe. like a boss.

Pair production isn't really a huge deal. The experimental setup and results were neat, but the energy used to oscillate the deflector will always be more than any gains from a few million photons.

cannibalizing energy from other adjacent universes. But slowly and subtly so that even the most advanced species therein do not detect it.

Impossible by known physics.
