The Highliner Highliner Antares was an experimental Sirius Corporation passenger liner which went missing during its maiden flight in 3251.[1] It was testing a new type of hyperspace drive.
In December 3301, a new search for the vessel started.[2] It resulted in the recovery of the wreckage of the Antares.[3]

Template:Quote 3251
- The 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.[2][1]
