Galactic Hyperspace

Galactic Hyperspace is a common mode of transportation to get from one place to another. Hyperspace takes place in a sub-realistic dimension of The Galaxy.

Discovery
The Pellins discovered hyperspace when they noticed that objects such as asteroids were sometimes travelling far faster than light. They realized that these objects were running into spatial rifts and were then being entered into the hyperspatial sub-dimension. They soon learned how to spawn and control these rifts to enter hyperspace.

Risks
Very rarely, Snakes can enter the hyperspatial sub-dimension and can destroy ships that happen to be travelling in it. This is very rare, however, and is not considered to be a large risk.

Other than The Snakes, there are no other significant risks to travelling in hyperspace.
