HIGHER ORDER JUMP DRIVES (2016)

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.

Jumpspace & Conventional Space Travel in 1116
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.
  • Fairly well understood.
9 Jump Space
(J-space)
1 to 9 0th-Order (100) Jump Drives

J-1 to J-9

FTL 168 hours [± 10%] 1-9 pc Drive rating are equal to the maximum travel distance in parsecs of travel.
  • e.g. A J-1 drive can travel one parsec or a little less than a third of a Light-year (About 31 million kilometers).
  • 100 diameter gravity well limitation.
  • Not well understood.
17 Hop Space
(H-space)
10 to 18 1st-Order (101) Hop Drives

H-1 to H-9

FTL 168 hours [± 10%] 10-90 pc Drive rating are equal to the maximum travel distance in 10's of pc of travel.
20 Skip Space
(S-space)
19 to 27 2nd-Order (102) Skip Drives

S-1 to S-9

FTL 168 hours [± 10%] 100-900 pc Drive rating are equal to the maximum travel distance in 100's of pc of travel.
22 Leap Space
(L-space)
28 to 36 3rd-Order (103) Leap Drives

L-1 to L-9

FTL 168 hours [± 10%] 1000 pc
to
9000 pc
Drive rating are equal to the maximum travel distance in 1000's of pc of travel.
26 Bound Space
(B-space)
37 to 45 4th-Order (104) Bound Drives

B-1 to B-9

FTL 168 hours [± 10%] 10,000 pc
to
90,000 pc
Drive rating are equal to the maximum travel distance in 10,000's of pc of travel.
29 Vault Space
(V-space)
46 to 54 5th-Order (105) Vault Drives

V-1 to V-9

FTL 168 hours [± 10%] 100,000 pc
to
900,000 pc
Drive rating are equal to the maximum travel distance in 100,000's of pc of travel.
31 "6-space" 55 to 63 6th-Order (106) "Six" Drives

"Six"-1 to "Six"-9 (?)

FTL 168 hours [± 10%] 1 million pc
to
9 million pc
Drive rating are equal to the maximum travel distance in millions of pc of travel.
32 "7-space" 64 to 72 7th-Order (107) "Seven" Drives

"Seven"-1 to "Seven"-9 (?)

FTL 168 hours [± 10%] 10 million pc
to
90 million pc
Drive rating are equal to the maximum travel distance in 10s of millions of pc of travel.
* Generally not available.
33 "8-space" 73 to 81 8th-Order (108) "Eight" Drives

"Eight"-1 to "Eight"-9 (?)

FTL 168 hours [± 10%] 100 million pc
to
900 million pc
Drive rating are equal to the maximum travel distance in 100s of millions of pc of travel.
* Generally not available. - Note that Singularity occurs at TL33, so only an "Early" Eight-Drive is possible at TL32.
34 "9-space" 82 to 90 9th-Order (109) "Nine" Drives

"Nine"-1 to "Nine"-9 (?)

FTL 168 hours [± 10%] 1 billion pc
to
9 billion pc
Drive rating are equal to the maximum travel distance in billions of pc of travel.
* Generally not available. - Note that Singularity occurs at TL33, so only a "Prototype" Nine-Drive is possible at TL32.
