==Technology== ===Warp Beacon=== Warp beacon are large structures containing a certain number of "warp cells". Each warp cell contains a single atom set to vibrate at a certain frequency. Some of the containers are said "fix" and provide a vibration of reference, the others are used to convey information. These devices use the principle of information teleportation, a quantum paradox that allows these atoms to vibrate together as if they were bound, although they are not, meaning that all the synchronized atoms on a particular frequency will behave like one. These are used to convey information relatives to the masses present in the neighborhood of the beacon. Since Warping is about bending space, it uses subtle deformations of the different gravitational fields to achieve teleportation, which is why the information given by the beacons allow considerably more accurate and safe jumps. Instead, the on-board computer should make particularly complex calculation to make the jump, which in some cases can last for days, which is still faster than travelling with just bare rocket engine. But since the implementation of the beacons have been made by investment of the FSO with technical support from NMT, these two companies push the other corporations to use the beacons, selling the encryption code of the beacons' signals, and of course earn great deals of money out of it. The only exception is the Pluto / Charon beacon, that is held by the StarBoard Pirates. Its access code is known by all, and since it's mainly effective in the Kuiper Belt near Pluto, it helps the many mercenaries and bandits that hide there.
