Trans-Ether Obliterator
a recent confirmation of its existence was made by the USS Tigershark . The Trans-Ether Obliterator has been subject to legends and myths before a specimen could be destroyed (And later a Trans-Ether Obliterator was captured by a team of Hyperspace Antoo . Trans-Ether Obliterator had been the subject of tales and mythology of many spacefaring societies, most prominently by the Seenians , the Saresii (of the First Age), Dai Than and the Genolax . While Workgroup Olympus had a file on this legend, no known encounter could be verified byUnion science .
Ships with Para-Dim shields are well protected. These trans spatial entities are believed to be sentient, but no meaningful communication could be established (Not even by Hyperspace Antoo). The Trans-Ether Obliterator existence was also confirmed by the memories of the Arth .
Encounters are rare
Trans-Ether Obliterators as seen by sensors and eyes of Standard Space resembling enormous starfish with several other smaller starfishes stacked on top of each other. Dimensions are misleading as part of the entity resides in Hyperspace. Translocator Cannons configured with the Tyron-Circuit solution are capable of destroying and killing a Trans-Ether Obliterator.
After the capture of a specimen, research has been commenced.
It appears Trans-Ether Obliterator have very limited abilities to perceive Standard Space and are virtually blind.
They seem to be attracted to Hyperspace jump engines and only able to make the transition using a Hyperjump transition at the point of reentry.
Due to very few Milkyway Galaxy societies still relying on Hyperjumps only very few encounters have ever been recorded (none by Union entities until the Tigershark encountered one)
