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.

Shortly before the rise of the Third Imperium, anti-gravity modules were brought to the market on the [[Asym]] homeworld by the industrial concern, ''Kat-mun-tu''. They immediately captured the imagination of the public, drawing large amounts of new business. The executives in charge were given stipends and estates by the local government, and those responsible for the design achieved celebrity status.
