Krasnikov's Subway

The Snel Race
26-10-2003, 21:16
The constructor ship from Venus exited its Alcubierre warp as it neared Jupiter, switching on its fusion engine a second time to decelerate. After releasing the end of the spacetime tunnel in orbit around the Ganymede Trailing Trojan Point, it injected itself into a highly eliptical orbit, swinging around until it was exactly opposite the tunnel. Starting up the Krasnikov/Alcubierre-Broeck system once again, another tunnel began to form as the robot ship moved on to Pluto.

(OOC: Well.... this is long overdue.)

Some two hours later, with the Alcubierre bubble eliminating relativistic effects that would otherwise turn the subway into a timetunnel, the constructor exited at the Pluto cischaronian Lagrange point.
(OOC: Wee! I love making up new terminology.)
