{{Quote|Since the Antares was lost 50 years ago, there have been great advances in scanning technology, and we believe it may now be possible to find the remains of the ship.

Once we have accumulated enough material, we will subject the debris to comprehensive analysis to determine its origin.

* A Sirius Corporation vessel known as the Highliner Antares disappeared during its maiden flight in the Sirius system. It was the first ship to use a production version of a new type of hyperdrive. When attempting a hyperspace jump it experienced a simultaneous explosion and mis-jump. The final report concluded that the most likely cause was that a part in the drive had failed just before the jump. No wreckage from the vessel was found. This led to considerable speculation and many conspiracy theories concerning what actually occurred.<ref name="Search" /><ref | * A Sirius Corporation vessel known as the Highliner Antares disappeared during its maiden flight in the Sirius system.
