How fast is hyperdrive




















With no lightspeed capability and the Falcon's deflector shields failing, Han Solo cunningly steers his ship into the pursuing Star Destroyer's blind spot. Skip Navigation Disney. Log In. Hyperdrive Hyperdrives allow starships to travel faster than the speed of light, crossing space through the alternate dimension of hyperspace. Explore Wikis Community Central.

As you know, the hyperdrive engines won't fire within the gravitational pull of a planet. The safety protocols will activate. Main article: Holdo maneuver. This list is incomplete.

That's why both the warp drive in "Star Trek" and the hyperdrive were designed around the notion that faster than light travel can happen, but they bend the rule of real world science. In the former, warp speed is referred to as Time Warp in "The Menagerie". This was dropped as the show went on, but the principles were the same. And that in Trek, a stable worm hole or a transwarp drive was necessary to traverse the Delta Quadrant in less time than a standard warp drive that can only reach warp nine can achieve.

As it would take longer to do that. Seventy years to be precise. And this is without the help of the Q Continuum, the Caretaker and the Kelvans. How is that possible? Obviously one crucial component of jumping into hyperspace are the Falcon's "horizontal boosters" Han had Chewie tested trying to locate the flaw that made the hyperdrive inoperative. Now, these boosters seem to serve the purpose to "boost" a ship into hyperspace hence "jump" , visible best when the Avenger made its jump with the help of its four otherwise inoperative booster engines in ESB.

As the name "booster" clearly suggests, such rocket engines only serve the purpose of providing extra thrust for a limited period of time but not to provide continous thrust over extended periods of time as attaining lightspeed and flying with lightspeed velocities would undoubtedly require, assuming that could ever work in the first place.

Queer readings. Race readings. Gender readings. These readings have safe space to approach a huge data set from their own perspectives and to consume that data set and sort and query and compare and contrast and categorize and find general consistencies and find exceptions and locate where they are represented or misrepresented inside that data set and how that data set compares to like literary offerings.

But try a science reading of Star Wars, and you have touched the third rail. There's no solution. Not on this forum. I get the view of the TFA gushers who could not talk to each other for long without a TFA basher coming in and speaking stentorian authority.

What is a wormhole and how would it allow us to travel great distances in a short amount of time? In Star Wars, hyperspace is extra-dimensional space through which ships can travel so as to move across the galaxy faster than would be allowed by traveling through real space.

In order to do this, a ship must be equipped with a hyperdrive. But going to hyperspace is not without its dangers. Hyperspace is, in theory, a set of extra dimensions beyond the three that we experience daily. These extra dimensions are able to connect distant points in real space. This allows for faster-than-light speeds in a sense. For example, consider the flight from Tatooine to Alderaan. If Owen turned on a laser pointed directly at Alderaan and we assume that there are no obstructions and the beam will stay accurately aimed enough to be detectable at Alderaan at the same moment the Millennium Falcon jumped into hyperspace, the Millennium Falcon would arrive before the laser beam reached Alderaan.

There are problems with this theoretical explanation. One is the idea that cause and effect rely on things happening in a particular order. More simply, for one event to cause a second event, the first event must happen before the second. That seems easy enough and unrelated to hyperspace, but the concept of simultaneity throws a wrench into everything. Consider the following: you are sitting on a chair next to a high-speed railroad track, and you decide to launch two fireworks at the same time, one on either side.

From your perspective, they launch at precisely the same moment. If your friend were to ride on a train traveling close to the speed of light as the fireworks were launched, that friend would see the fireworks launch at different times.

An event that is simultaneous for you would not be simultaneous for your friend. You may think, well, fireworks are a silly example.

Who cares if you disagree on the order in which the fireworks were launched? However, this thought experiment shows us the interrelationship between speed and the sequence of events. Imagine firing a blaster event 1 and the bolt hitting the target event 2.
