'''Star systems''', usually simply referred to as ''''systems'''<nowiki/>', are gravitationally bound collections of orbitally organized planets, planetoids and asteroids around a governing star or group of stars. The gravitational stress of the central objects allows the formation of [[Special:MyLanguage/Jump Point|Jump Point]]s between systems, which allow near-instantaneous interstellar travel. Systems contain the most important locations in the galaxy; from [[Special:MyLanguage/Sol|homeworlds]] to [[Special:MyLanguage/Kilian|military outposts]].

The vast majority of systems have a large star, black hole, or other massive object around which the other stellar objects orbit.

The only viable inter-system travel means is represented by [[Special:MyLanguage/Jump Point|jump points]], which are hyper-stable wormholes that form between two neighboring massive gravity wells, such as those of stars, black holes, etc. However, the stability of jump points can be decreased by the presence of other significant substellar gravity wells, such as those of gas giants (ex: Jupiter, Saturn, etc.) and their satellite systems, which interfere with the space-time fabric.

For intra-system travel, a [[Special:MyLanguage/ship|ship]] would use its [[Special:MyLanguage/Quantum Drive|quantum drive]], which allows for velocities nearing or slightly exceeding 20% of the speed of light and consuming quantum fuel to do so.
