The Battlestar Galactica FTL drive is a complex and sophisticated piece of
technology that allows ships to travel faster than the speed of light. It does
this by folding space-time around the ship, allowing it to travel through a
subspace bubble. The FTL drive is powered by tylium, a rare and precious
mineral.
The FTL drive is activated by a series of complex calculations that are
performed by the ship's computer. These calculations take into account the
ship's current position, its destination, and the surrounding space-time
conditions. Once the calculations are complete, the FTL drive is activated and
the ship jumps to its destination.
The FTL drive is a vital piece of technology for the Colonial Fleet. It allows
ships to travel quickly between star systems, which is essential for both
military and civilian operations. The FTL drive is also a key factor in the
Colonial Fleet's ability to evade the Cylons.
