Hyperspeed Shuttle

Hyperspeed Shuttles were a brand of spacecraft designed for high speed space travel. They were manufactured by HyperFocus Inc., a corporation specialising in spacefaring vehicles, particularly those travelling at the speed of light. These powerful shuttles were supposed to revolutionise space travel, moving faster than the speed of light.

Unfortunately, the number of safety concerns and the amount of inadvertent deaths and disappearances caused by Hyperspeed Shuttles caused its discontinuation.


The Hyperspeed Shuttle was designed to accommodate between one and ten passengers. Each vehicle was fully automated and all that was required of the passengers was to input a destination. The shuttle had a map of the Galactic Highway and would figure out fastest routes, following the lightspeed motorway for fastest travel.

Passengers were free to roam about the cabin during travel. There are two double and two twin beds, as well as a lavatory, seating area and television, as well as other necessities.


Extensive testing of final prototypes showed these vehicles were incredibly dangerous. However, due to internal pressures from company executives, these concerns were ignored and said prototypes became final product. Just a hundred Hyperspeed Shuttles had been sold before they were completely pulled off the market.

The sheer speed of these vehicles caused them to tear through dimensional walls, causing the shuttles to slip through time and space and enter other realms. While some survived, most vehicles crashed and burned, the company at fault for more than two hundred deaths.

HyperFocus Inc. was forced to release a statement over this issue, paying billions in reparation to the families of the victims, as well as raising the standards of their vehicles in an effort to mitigate future risks. Since this failure, the corporation has produced no new vehicles.

A shame it failed. Wonder if you could weaponise it...

There are people who would definitely try to weaponise it...
