Artifact Effects

Individuals standing near the artifact (intelligent brains within one meter) perceive an image of starflight (without a ship) compressed at 1:10,000,000 (one second equals ten million seconds) to give an apparent speed of twenty light years per minute. Many voyages are contained within the artifact; several have been identified (through star patterns) as actual locations.
