- “Drink in a Small Town” by Peter Wood, in Asimov’s Science Fiction, March 2014.
A down-on-his-luck physicist who’s invented a faster-than-light drive stops to watch the first manned Mars landing in a small-town Georgia diner. This is one of the few stories I’ve seen that ties together FTL with time travel.
And you’ll discover something else when you’re tinkering with that drive.
