  1. My idea for a Wormhole network that will be described in more detail in Infinitum;

    Wormhole hubs are basically giant stations in close orbit around their parent stars (If around the sun for example, between Mercury and Venus for excellent solar energy, but not too close to a large gravity well), it would essentially be the intragalactic equivalency of an international airport, you would come out of the Wormhole, dock to the station, refuel, and go through 'customs' before going on your way through a solar system.

    Here's what you can imagine it'll look like (It'll be described in much more detail in the book): You have a massive flat torus ring, say about the size of the Moon, and several hundred klicks across which is a basically a giant solar panel. Then just within that, is a gravity ring running along the inner edge of the solar torus that's inhabited by station workers, and Aliens leaving and entering the system. And within that, is a bunch of Wormhole gates that connect, say, a dozen different systems, almost like a spider web.

    I'll be going into more detail where Wormhole gates are prioritized (Btw, hyperspace travel is also a thing, but it's slower than Wormhole travel), like around home systems and stuff like that.

    What do you guys think?

      Hey,

       

       

      That's pretty good!

      @stargate or @contact, interesting metaphorical approach around the topic ^^

      9k words so far total! And around 3k for chapter 3.

      No guarantees, but it might be up today.
