Travel Systems

Travel technology determines the real size of civilization.

In the Space Adventures universe, long-range mobility relies on two major ideas:

• Wrap Engine: flexible faster-than-light travel for ships operating across ordinary space
• Hole Teleportation: fixed gate technology for rare, strategically prepared locations

Why This Category Matters

Without advanced travel systems, even nearby stars remain politically and economically isolated. With them, trade, diplomacy, warfare, migration, and storytelling can happen on human timescales.
