'''Hyperspace''', colloquially known as '''Witch-space''', is a higher-dimensional region through which [[ships]] can travel between star systems at superluminal speeds. Only ships fitted with a [[hyperdrive]] are able to initiate hyperspace jumps on their own. In the 34th century, the most prevalent hyperdrive design in use among [[human]] ~~civilization~~ is the [[Frame Shift Drive]] (FSD).

In the 34th century, the most prevalent hyperdrive design in use among [[human]] civilisation is the [[Frame Shift Drive]] (FSD).

Hyperspace jumps rely on the properties of quantum mechanics. Before a jump can be made, the destination must be selected, and a sufficient amount of [[Hydrogen Fuel]] or [[Tritium]] must be injected into the FSD. The type and quantity of fuel required depends on the ship's mass, the distance to the destination, and the specifications of the ship's FSD. Although hyperspace travel using the FSD is brief, straightforward, and generally safe, [[hyperdiction]]s by [[Thargoid]] vessels have presented a growing hazard in recent years.
