This control of the force of gravity allows construction of vehicles, like the [[Air/Raft]] and [[G-Carrier]], mapping of object mass through [[Densitometer]]s, and safety equipment like the [[Grav Parachute]]. |
While not often correlated by most people, historians have noted that the advent of practical [[fusion power plant]]s is the result of applied gravitic compression of the fissionable fuels. Some mass-thrusters also rely on the gravitic compression of hydrogen to a near-fusion energy level. Material science uses gravitic compression to strengthen metals; [[Superdense]]. The ability to warp [[space-time]] and induce a [[jump]] is directly related to the control and understanding of gravitics. The [[Terran]] system failed to comprehend and use gravitics for many years, which delayed the [[Solomani]] expansion. | While not often correlated by most people, historians have noted that the advent of practical [[fusion power plant]]s is the result of applied gravitic compression of the fissionable fuels.
