A Generation Ship is a Starship using sublight NAFAL propulsion that uses multiple conscious crews while in transit.
Description (Specifications)
A ship containing a full complement of personnel intended to make a sub-light journey across space.
- Since such journeys take years, or even decades, the crew and passengers of the ship expect to give birth, live and die naturally during the course of the journey.
- The subsequent generation of the original crew and passengers being the ones who actually arrive at their destination.
- Generation Ships are sometimes referred to, incorrectly, as Sleeper Ships, which are similar, except that the majority, or all of the passengers and crew are put into low berths/hibernation for the duration of the journey.
