Micro jump

Micro Jump

Space ship maneuver in which the shortest possible distance traversed using Quasi Space. A  space ship under Isah Field Propulsion must accelerate to Threshold Speed then pass into Quasi space and then travel using real space sensors to whatever destination desired. Normally many light years are covered that way and the evasion of gravity wells and real space bodies is relative easy. As there is also a decelerate phase.

However if a ship jumps distances of under a light hour, the entry and exit point must be predetermined and actual time conditions are in the micro second area. If jumps are even shorter, the jump time reduces to mili seconds and even the most sophisticated Computronics can't accurately calculate the exit point. Missing exit points by a few light seconds to a few light hours are possible and collisions with gravitation wells or objects are possible. Especially if such a Micro jump kid done inside a Star system.

Micro Jumps are sometimes used  by the most reckless Wolfcraft pilots.
