Hyperspace jumps rely on the properties of quantum mechanics. Before a jump can be made, the destination must be known, and a discrete amount of energy must be input. The amount of energy needed is dependent on the mass of the jumping ship, the distance to the destination, and the specifications of the ship's frame shift drive. | Hyperspace jumps rely on the properties of quantum mechanics.
