Galactic Express

History and Functioning
The Galactic Express is a passenger and cargo wagon divided ship, which crosses all the three main territories of the Known Galaxy. It is powered by two ultra potent solar fins (or solar sails) that power the frontal boosters, pulling the cargo ships that sustain themselves off of smaller boosters on their undersides. The Galactic Express has existed since 5037 A.E, spanning many light years that it crosses with ease by using its light-speed thrusters, which are powered wirelessly by the numbered checkpoints and allow for frequent jumps without using the turbine energy, by increasing the velocity continually until the jump. Fortunately, gravity cancelling technology in the passenger wagons prevents the passengers from feeling a difference in speed, making for a comfortable and quick journey, complete with onboard food for economic wagons and even a bar for the VIP and business wagons.

The Galactic Express is available to all major capital planets in the regions, and it is able to traverse through them as long as you pay for your ticket. The tickets can be paid in any currency of the three regions, making it easier for the citizens to move.

Although you are able to access any region, an entry visa is required for you to leave the stations of each region, the most difficult to get being the Cloud Theocracy, which only allows politicians in, however allows any citizen to leave the Theocracy at will (although does not allow them back in).

The Galactic Express was built using thousands of engineers and droids of both the Northern Star Federation and the Empire of Etheria, over the span of 5 years.

Many heists have been planned for the express by criminal groups, but all of them failed due to not only the top notch security of the Express but also the instability of the light-speed jumps, which can be fatal for anyone around the express, ship or alien likewise. These heists were planned because of the extremely high value cargo the Express carries, such as volatile chemicals, technological experiments, Imperial riches, museum artifacts and other invaluable items.
