Xenotech

Metabolic Reactors
Velan drones use a mutable reactor architecture that can adapt to fuse almost any sub-iron element. Reverse-engineering the technology enables ships to power themselves indefinitely as long as they have access to light elements.

Electron Sponges
Velan worker and warrior drones do not have internal reactors, but instead receive power from dedicated 'mothers', and store it in sophisticated nanostructured capacitors. The high energy density makes them a compact alternative for reactors on small ships and other parasite craft.

Photon Sponges
Eridanus hybrids use a superior technique based on 'frozen photons', made possible with dust. This has substantially higher energy density than 'conventional' sponge batteries, suitable for more energy-hungry craft using shields and particles. Primary Index: Xenotech ????

Basic Theotech

Crossphase Power Conduits
An application derived from quantum computational technology, Crossphase Power Conduits use metric editing technology to 'shift' electrical power into a phased state, allowing greater energy transfer rates to be achieved without the corresponding need for better or larger superconductors. This translates into a net increase in available power due to efficiency savings.

Theta Catapults
Theta dust can make catapults that are far more compact and dust-efficient than delta designs, reducing the required industrial base and allowing for greater secrecy.
