A breakdown of technological sections.
A breakdown of technological sections.  While each is important, [[materials]] technology is important to keep in mind - science has run into many barriers, all centered around the fact that the quality of the stuff in the [[universe]] simply isn't good enough.  [[Hawkinium]] gives a break in certain, limited areas, but even with that, it still suffers the same limitations of ordinary matter.
 
  
* [[Biotechnology]]
+
* [[Biotechnology]] took a few leaps with the advent of the [[Prometheus Accords]] and the development of the [[Alpha strain]] and [[Beta strain]].  [[Sapiation]] has granted a few animals and other biological constructs [[sentience]].
* [[Communication]]
+
* [[Communication]] technology bears some slight merit in discussing, mostly about encryption, though [[satmet]]s are important since the discovery of [[tachyon]]s.
* [[Computing]]
+
* [[Computer]]s have advanced significantly, of course, giving rise to [[sapient]] machines and the [[encephalon]].
* [[Defense]]
+
* [[Defense]] technology primarily consists of [[deflector]]s, [[shield]]s, and [[screen]]s, though simple armor plays a role as well.
* [[Exotics]] - The study of exotic matter.
+
* [[Exotics]] - The study of exotic matter.  [[Hadronium]] and [[exomatter]] have vastly expanded the capabilities of normal, baryonic materials.
* [[Materials]]
+
* [[Nanotechnology]] was not quite the revolution some thought it would, though they were considered heavily in the [[Anti-Homogenization Act]].
* [[Nanotechnology]]
+
* [[Mobius pattern]]s play an important part in the role of technology within the [[Milky Way]].
* [[Power]]
+
* [[Power]] is dominated by [[deuterium]] [[fusion]] for civilian needs, while [[solar power]] represents the vast majority of gathered energy.  [[Antimatter]] is not terribly feasible without the aid of mobius patterns, and [[klein tap]]s power [[Regalia]].
* [[Propulsion]]
+
* [[Propulsion]] technology for most space faring vessels is largely based on a special kind of [[fusion]] reactor.  Inside atmospheres, standard methods dominate though [[lifter]]s are also present, and various lighter-than-air vehicles and hybrids of all sorts are quite common.
* [[Replication]] is also important to look at for the sake of [[economics]] in [[Solar Storms]].
+
* [[Printer]]s - or 'replicators', are also important to look at for the sake of [[economics]] in [[Solar Storms]].
* [[Sensory]]
+
* [[Sensory]] technology is mostly a refinement of modern technology.
* [[Weaponry]]<noinclude><BR><BR>{{SS}}</noinclude>
+
* [[Ship]]s are separated into a number of categories between combat and utilitarian.  See that node for details.
 +
* [[Weaponry]] has some familiar and unfamiliar forms.
