This makes it possible to catch onto a gravity wave and travel THROUGH space, sort of like surfing.
Full light speed travel is, of course, impossible-any dunce knows that-but at speeds approaching that of light, time almost stops for the traveler (relative to the surrounding universe). As the ship switched off its gravity wave resonators it stopped traveling THROUGH space and appeared eighty-five million kilometers above the plane of a yellow sun solar system, traveling just below the speed of light. People of lower IQ call this ‘hyperspace travel,’ but we know better than to copy such a phrase used in the works of cheap scifi and fantasy novels. Another way to put it might be traveling ‘between space’ or ‘around space’ or ‘folding space’ or ‘instantaneous travel’-in other words traveling from A to B without even touching any C’s along the way. When we say ‘THROUGH space’ we really mean THROUGH it-TransHyperbolic-Rerouted-Omni-Utter-Graviton-Hopping. When we say ‘THROUGH space’ it is meant to be distinguished from ‘through space.’ Everything is always traveling through space from point A to B, traveling past an infinite number of points and an oxymoron in between. The tiny spaceship screeched THROUGH space at unheard of speeds.
