The previous post, FTL II, was written in haste. I allow almost zero time to walk from Blades St up to the Friends' Meeting House. Now that I am back home under less time pressure, I am able to search the blog and find that I have previously summarized the space jump technology as presented in World Without Stars. See:
Dark Matter, Dark Energy And Intrinsic Unity
World Without Stars
So far, four FTL rationales:
quantum jumps
the Mach Drive
the superlight drive
the space jump
These rationalizations are ingeniously different yet all serve the same purpose of moving a ship through space faster than light.
The Psychotechnic History has a more conventional sounding hyperdrive. I do not think that it is rationalized. For Love And Glory (FLAG) has hyperspace and even "hyperbeaming," instantaneous interstellar communication. Does anyone remember whether FLAG rationalizes its FTL space travel?
