HYPERDRIVE: The faster-than-light drive invented by Reinhard Nannstein, allowing a speed of slightly over three light-years per hour.
HYPERFIELD: The field generated by hyperdrive engines. To conserve energy it is normally kept close to the ship's skin, but can be expanded if necessary to take a ship or other object under tow. Holding a hyperfield at towing extension for more than fifty hours, however, is dangerous and is prohibited except under war emergency conditions.
HYPERSPACE: The spatial condition discovered by Reinhard Nannstein which allows faster-than-light travel, at a speed of slightly over three light-years per hour.

ICE-BERRIES: Gourmet product of Sandeman, they grow in the Cold Peak Range and are harvested by Clan Torrance Others. It is important to keep them below the freezing point of water; they begin losing their delicate flavor at half a degree above zero, and melt at about ten degrees over that point.
