* Allow for at least two to three days travel between planets such as Earth and Mars. Note that this involves a constant acceleration of one gravity, with fuel and reaction mass requirements that accompany such a burn. If your ship is traveling more slowly, adjust your travel time accordingly. | * Allow for at least two to three days travel between planets such as Earth and Mars.

* For travelers in Sol System traveling between the inner system and outer system via hyperspace, the approximate travel time from Luna to Jupiter Station is approximately five days, of which around two to four hours is spent in hyperspace between Old Sol and New Sol Gates (New Sol Gate is physically located farther from Jupiter due to gravitational effects). | * For travelers in Sol System traveling between the inner system and outer system via hyperspace, the approximate travel time from Luna to Jupiter Station is approximately five days, of which around two to four hours is spent in hyperspace between Old Sol and New Sol Gates (New Sol Gate is physically located farther from Jupiter due to gravitational effects). | ||
