Editing Teleport Drive

'Teleport drive' is an umbrella name for different types of space propulsion encountered in science-fiction. It mainly describes the visual effect that the ships seems to teleport itself instantly from one point to another without delay and without having to follow a route in the normal universe.

Thus type of propulsion includes&nbsp;:


*Wormhole technology&nbsp;: the ship creates a temporary wormhole to the intended destination and crosses through. [''two-ways transport is possible, from and to anywhere''].
*Interstellar gates&nbsp;: permanent gates enabling to transport the ship from one system to another, built by a civilization (human or other). One gate may enable to travel to a limited number of other gates, or to all the other known gates. It usually requires the coordinates of the destination's gate to input into the departure gate's system. [''two-ways transport is possible, only between pre-defined destinations''].
*'Singularities', which are similar to gates, but&nbsp; are naturally occurrences of the universe and which only lead to another pre-define point. [''two-ways transport is possible, but only to one pre-defined destination, not chosen by the civilization''].
*Black hole transport, where the ship goes through a black hole and emerges out of a 'white fountain' in another point of space time. In this case, the ship not only moves in space but also in time, eventually even to another parallel universe. [''transport only, to an unchosen destination''].
