HIGHER ORDER JUMP DRIVES (2016)[edit]
While they are not currently known to Imperial Science as of the 1116 era, there are actually at least 9 tiers of "hyperspaces", or "Tau-spaces", of which Jumpspace is only the lowest tier. The actual values and performances are listed below.
Minimum TL | Space | Level #s | Weave (Order of Magnitude) | Drive Names |
FTL | Travel Duration | Travel Distance | Remarks |
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
6 | Real Space (N-space) |
0 | None | Conventional Drives (Relativistic) |
NAFAL | Conventional Space-Time limitations. | Unlimited (Fuel limitation) |
Pre-FTL or NAFAL Technologies.
