Editing Julia Langstrom

(3678AD–3730AD): '''Dr Julia Alicia Langstrom''' was a controversial figure within the [[Distant Fringe]].

== Description ==
A noted physicist and a leading researcher in the field of Jump Physics. She held Tenure in the High Energy Research Department of the [[University of Selasia]] in 3702AD, one of the youngest to do so. She was also a classically trained musician, specialising in the ancient Terran harp.

== History & Background ==
Dr Langstrom was the designer and namesake of the mythical [[Langstrom Drive]], a jump-drive design reputedly capable of breaking the [[Jump-2 Barrier]]. Dr Langstrom was lost while conducting testing in the [[Hylan Spur]] sometime around 3730AD, along with any prototypes and most of her research. Her disappearance coincided with the arrival of the [[Voyagers]] and conspiracy theories abound, specifically regarding her having "called" them through her experiments.

It is doubtful whether the [[Langstrom Drive]] actually ever existed. Those few scraps that remain of her notes and research offers intriguing clues but are so incomplete that they give no insights. In more than a millennia nobody has been able to replicate her work, and the Langstrom Drive is now generally dismissed as scientific wishful thinking.
