Starship

Starship (a.k.a. interstellar spacecraft) were spacecraft designed to travel between star systems or galaxies.

Propulsion
Starships had several methods of transversing the great distances between points of travel. Utilisation of faster-than-light travel was a common method.


 * Via hyperspace. (DW: The Stones of Blood) Which often required significant power to enter hyperspace, by the 30th century several species such as humans and Hith were experimenting with different methods of utilising Icarons for use in spaceship design with regards to hyperspace. (NA: Original Sin)


 * Via warp drive, as early as 4 billion BC the Jagaroth had utilised warp drive as a method of propulsion. (DW: City of Death) By the 26th century human spaceships utilising anti-matter were propelled using warp drive. (DW: Earthshock, The Girl in the Fireplace)

Cryogenics
Rather than using faster-than-light or other methods of propulsion some starships suspended animation and/or cryogenic suspension to prevent their crew from ageing or experiencing the voyage. (DWM: Profits of Doom)
