Space travel in this series does include some of the most popular theories today: nuclear/fusion drive, ion drive, and Alcubierre alternative. In this story, the Alcubierre alternative drive (AAD) is a multiplier of speed. So if a space ship activates an AAD and is completely motionless -- it goes absolutely nowhere. If a ship using the drive is traveling at .9c and moving at a velocity of 10c, and drops an inert object (like a 1 ton anvil) to smash into a planet, it hits the planet at .9c, not 10c. Additionally, the ships in this story surf the oceans of gravity between star systems (at this moment in time) Perhaps it will change. Only time will tell.
