It isn't mysterious at all; it creates a wormhole and essentially bridges the gap between two locations. As for how much power it uses, that's never really specified. It could require a minimal amount of power or the tylium fuel could simply be so energetic that it puts to shame anything in the Traveller universe. -- Kurt Feltenberger xxxxxx@thepaw.org/xxxxxx@yahoo.com “Before today, I was scared to live, after today, I'm scared I'm not living enough." - Me
