TIME WARPS




The Hasslein Curve

Location: trajectory towards Orion.
Quantum leaps: 1972/3978 A.D.; 1972/3979 A.D.
Definition: the Hasslein Curve is technically a "spot" of energetical distortion; a sort of "physical debasement". Its structure interconnects two specific points in the space-time continuum ('Enter and Exit Coordinates').


The Sinusoid

Location: space.
Quantum leaps: 3979/1973 A.D.
Definition: the Sinusoid is a wormhole generated by the combination of the Hasslein Curve with the 'Effect Shockwave'. After the detonation of the Alpha-Omega Bomb, the hyperdrive-like propulsive rush, induced by the gravitational distorsion, literally "dug-out" this peculiar discrepancy into the fabric of the Hasslein Curve.


The Radius

Location: Alpha Centauri.
Quantum leaps: 1980/3085+ A.D.; 1991/3074+ A.D.
Definition: the Radius is a wormhole generated by the progressive deformation of the time fabric set on a portion of space which undergoes a powerful and almost constant passage of radioactive particles coming from a star (the turbulence known as 'The Outburst').


The Fractal

Location: Jupiter.
Quantum leaps: Original Timeline/Apeline Delta; Apeline Delta/Apeline Theta.
Definition: Roman ring featuring hundreds of interconnected wormhole cells, all composed by electromagnetic matrices. It works as a barrier between two distinct universes.
