(academics usually call it "warp speed", but veilspeed is more used by space captains, because of the described effect of the "veil" on body and mind when traveling). | ||

Veilspeed also has a sensitivity to mass and gravity that makes it perfect to travel in interstellar space but must stop once near large physical objects. | Veilspeed also has a sensitivity to mass and gravity that makes it perfect to travel in interstellar space but must stop once near large physical objects. | ||
