 There have been unconfirmed reports of a maneuver called the 'Coattail Jump'. It is believed that one ship would activate a wormhole, while another ship rides the coattail of the first ship into the singularity.  It is believed that the second ship is remaining within the sphere of influence of the jump drive of the first ship.

 Interstellar travel is accomplished via [[Terminology:Jump Point|jump points]] to access [[Terminology:Singularity|singularities]] formed between two previously weakened points in the space-time continuum, joining the two points in interstellar space.  These singularities (commonly named wormholes) permanently connect one point in one solar system to another point in another system.

-To transit from system to system, target and approach the wormhole leading to your chosen destination.

Activate your jump drive at this point by pressing {{Key:EN:J}}.  The wormhole will become active, and you should then propel your ship into the open wormhole under normal drive.  For best results, approach the wormhole directly, not from its side.
