Technologies

Following on his initial discovery of sustainable fusion power, there were several technologies Heisson set about developing in parallel in the early 22nd century through Heisson Aeronautics and its subsidiaries.

  1. Grav drive
  2. Maneuver drive
  3. Shield drive
  4. Power plant technology (essentially fusion power)
  5. Fusion fuel and processing technology
  6. Gravstar units (used to initiate jump)
  7. Gravity probe technology (used in planetary exploration)

All of these technologies were a necessary step required in order to support Heisson's vision of developing jump drive.
