The Schatten Star System is the only publicly known location in this universe of the Supergate version of a Hermod Gate also known as a Trans-Dimensional Supergate, this gate is fully operational but its location is classified.

Size
10km Diameter
574 Blocks (Reactor every 41 Blocks), Total of 14 Matter/Antimatter Reactors
Location
Fixed at 1 AU from Tharsis station
Right Ascension 1h 12m 57.82s by Declination 32° 6' 8.29

The gates operation is managed from Tharis Station, a Class K Space Station. Janus Station manages locating coordinates for inter-reality travel, but Tharsis is designed to act as a secondary control point, if needed.

Power Source

The Supergate is powered by a series of 14 matter/antimatter reactors placed at equal-distant points built into the gate-blocks at those points. When activated the reactors provide the power to open the gate and maintain the wormhole. However, the power is drained from the system faster than the reactors can produce it, since the blocks were designed to operate from a full quantum singularity.

Choosing a Destination

The nature of different realities in the multiverse makes travel to a reality too similar to ones own very difficult and extremely costly in energy and control. Using Janus Coordinates the gate can be targeted to any reality for which the coordinates are confirmed. Coordinates should be confirmed by Janus Station, Tharsis does have the ability to confirm coordinates if necessary.

Conventional Travel

It is also possible to use the Supergate to open a wormhole to somewhere within our own universe, given the proper coordinates and power usage, it may even be possible to access other galaxies using the gate.

Communication

A specific kind of beacon is used, based on a design for a temporal transponder, to signal the gate to open on demand to a particular universe, the signal will cross realities to reach the system and allow the gate to be activated, it cannot be activated from the opposite end. This beacon is known as a Trans-Dimensional Beacon, Janus Station and Tharsis monitors for signals of this type so that it can activate the gate.

Schedule

Travel through this gate is restricted and only permitted with express authorization from Solas Tempus command.

Restrictions

The wormhole stays open for a limited time before it exhausts the energy built up by the reactors. A wormhole can only stay open for a maximum of 38 minutes before it reaches a point that the reactors can no longer sustain. The reactors then require another 12.6 minutes to recharge the gates power reserves before they can open another stable wormhole.
