NSGSV Vortex

for the "Heavy as Hell" contest at


_________________________________________________

The NSGSV (neutron star gravity-surfing vessel) "Vortex" is built around a neutron star - an entity so dense and heavy, that it is capable to propel the ship from galaxy to galaxy by the sheer force of gravity alone.

The ship's gigantic core is shielded (yeah, I know you can't shield from gravity but let's have some fun!) to protect the rest of the ship from its disastrous influence. But when the shields are partially lowered from the desired side, the vessel is instantly pulled in that direction.

Needless to say, nearby celestial bodies are affected as well - this is the reason why this colossus is only allowed into uninhabited systems. Since its large mass distorts time-space it is also capable of superluminar travel.
