Meseriond crystalplugin-autotooltip__small plugin-autotooltip_bigMeseriond crystal

Meseriond is a synthetic crystal with almost total internal refraction, used to store information. They are particularly used to transport highly sensitive information which must not be intercepted.

During final processing of the crystal, a stream of data is injected, whilst simulataneously finalising the properties of the crystal so that it infinitely refracts within the crystal structure. The data is held within the crystal as a static stream. The data can only be retrieved…

Hyperdriveplugin-autotooltip__small plugin-autotooltip_bigHyperdrive

Most modern interstellar space travel is achieved using variations on the tachyon transference drive (TTD), variously called the tachyon drive or hyperdrive. This circumvents the laws of mass and energy by “flipping” a vessel travelling at speeds approaching the speed of light into tachyonic particles. These particles have no mass in the convention sense, as they are incapable of interacting with sub-luminal matter. They also travel at the speed of light within their own point of …
