Hypermatter reactor

From ImperialWiki

Hypermatter reactors are power generators that function by annihilating hypermatter to produce massive amounts of power.

[edit] Operation

Hypermatter is a form of matter that exists in hyperspace and is essentially tachyonic in nature. Trapped inside the realspace of the hypermatter reactors, it is annihilated as it reaches infinite speeds.

[edit] Uses

Hypermatter reactors are found in almost all manner of hyperspace-capable spacecraft, from the hyperdrive rings used by some starfighters during the Clone Wars to Imperial Star Destroyers. The Death Stars were powered by the largest hypermatter reactors ever built.
