"Today, The Island States government agreed to sell the prototype First Generation Solid-State Hyperspace Module to the Federation of the Sentient Peoples.

'We do this in the hope, not only of acquiring more funds in support of Socialism, but to improve relations between the USR and the FSP,' President Newman of TIS reportedly said. 'By giving them FTL technology, we open the possibility of trade and assistance between our two peoples.'

The device and its technical manuals/schematics, which currently has a jump range of 50 light years and gave rise to the ISASF's grand vision of interstellar flight, is being sold for 10,000,000,000 SUMUs (USR currency)."
