Hyperspace Relays

Hyperspace Relays are large devices, often spherical or disc-shaped, that are launched into space to map out Hyperspace and direct Hyperdrills.

Capabilities
Hyperspace Relays are simply meant to observe and map out hyperspace, as their Realspace viewing ports does not give the same interference or distortion that a ship within hyperspace would receive. Because of their ability to map hyperspace, some relays were used as scanners to track ship movements through uncontrolled hyperlanes.

Background
Hyperspace Relays were originally invented by the Titanians as guiders for Negative Reality Drivers, but continued to be used with the introduction of standard hyperdrills. During the war for the Chronicle Timeline, the Titan Regime utilized disc-shaped hyperspace relays to guide the resurfaced Negative Reality Driver towards Government space. These relays were protected with shields and Point-Defense systems.
