Janus Gate: Difference between revisions

Revision as of 03:25, 1 December 2021

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. Created in conjunction with the Avali using their superior understanding of wormhole technology, the Supergate allows transit between different realities of the multiverse, with some restrictions.

Size: 10km Diameter
574 Blocks (Reactor every 41 Blocks), Total of 14 Matter/Antimatter Reactors
Location: Fixed at 8 AU from the Schatten Star
Right Ascension 3h 18m 22.59s by Declination 15° 9' 5.07

The gates operation is managed from Janus Station, a Class 2 Space Station where navigation between realities is calculated and the gate can be activated.

Schedule

To facilitate trade and commerce the gate has scheduled times that it will be opened to various realities once a valid connection is established and probes determine that the reality is safe to travel to. The specific rotates depends on the demand for passage to and from a given reality.

-The gates operation is managed from [[Janus Station]], a [[Class 2 Space Station]] where navigation between realities is calculated and the gate can be activated.  While the original technology used, wormhole allowed only one-way travel.  Integrating the Avali technology allows the wormhole to travel both ways between realities.

-== Power Source ==
+== Schedule ==
-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 can only be confirmed by Janus Station.
-=== 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 monitors for signals of this type so that it can activate the gate.
-=== Schedule ===
 To facilitate trade and commerce the gate has scheduled times that it will be opened to various realities once a valid connection is established and probes determine that the reality is safe to travel to.  The specific rotates depends on the demand for passage to and from a given reality.
-== 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.
