On the original series from the 1960s, Star Trek's Warp 8 = 512 times the speed of light. It was a simple formula: Velocity = Warp Factor cubed times the speed of light.
Example: Warp 8 = 8 x 8 x 8 = 512
Star Trek - The Next Generation revised the formula so that Warp 8 = 1,024 times the speed of light.
