One of the most profound applications of the Astral Plane is '''Astral Folding'''. This process allows ships to bypass normal space by “folding” across astral currents, using the alignment of thought-resonance to move instantaneously between distant points. Unlike [[Teleka Drives]], which ride lifeforce streams, Astral Folding relies on harmonizing with the universal mind-web of Galaxa. | One of the most profound applications of the Astral Plane is '''Astral Folding'''.

Failures in Folding can be catastrophic, displacing ships into hostile astral regions or leaving crews stranded in dreamlike stasis. | Failures in Folding can be catastrophic, displacing ships into hostile astral regions or leaving crews stranded in dreamlike stasis. | ||
With the Astral Plane's connection to emotions and thought any slight lapse in concentration or fluctuation in emotional state can be catastrophic, sending crews far from their desired location or in some cases across the Universe. Though these mishaps were a common occurrence early on most crews did make it home. | |||
