Star drive

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The star drive is a type of hyperdrive used in the Star*Drive campaign setting of the Alternity role-playing game. A star drive operates on the principles of gravity induction, by combining two pieces of technology, the induction engine and the mass reactor, in order to travel at FTL speeds through the meta-physical medium of Drivespace, a type of hyperspace. Depending on the engine power of a star drive, it could travel anywhere from 20 to 50 lightyears in a single trip, but due to the spacial physics of Drivespace, any and all travel between two points takes exactly 121 hours (approx. 5 days), no matter how far apart or how close the two points are.
