Background info

Just as an FYI, the journey from Galatea to Hardisey's Haven (the world you're currently on) took approximately 430.16LY, and accomplished through 17 jumps. Estimating an average layover of 5 days (factoring recharge time, and availability of already charged jumpships), it would have taken 85 days, or almost 3 months to get there. Keep in mind Galatea is around 70LY from Terra (around 3 jumps), so that should give an impression of the scale of the setting.
(trivia note: Battletech jumpships, despite the fact that they "jump" only 30LY at a time, and require around 1 week to recharge, are faster than a NextGen Star Trek ship travelling at Warp 9, or so I understand)...
