==Grav Drive==
Your ship is able to travel using the [[Grav Drive]] by allocating [[ship power]] to the [[GRV]]: Grav Drive system and then navigating via the [[Star Map]] to travel to your desired destination.
Note: The amount of ship's power allocated to the Grav Drive determines the time required for it to be activated.

If you do not have enough [[fuel capacity]], you will not be able to travel to some [[systems]]. You can still get to these systems, but you will need to do multiple jumps to systems you can reach along the path. You also will want to upgrade the [[Helium-3]] (HE3)HE-3 tanks on your ship. These tanks can be be bought at most ship vendors under fuel parts.

===Tips and Tricks===
*Heavier ships need larger grav drives to jump further.               
*The [[Astrodynamics]] skill decreases fuel cost and increases [[Grav Jump range]].               
*If you have an [[outpost]] containing [[fuel]] ([[He3]]) it will extend the range your ship can go in a single plotted Grav Jump.       
*Interplanetary travel does not expend fuel. Helium-3 is used exclusively for Grav Jumping.             
*Helium-3 (He3) is the standard fuel for grav drives.                       
*A ship's grav drive cannot be a higher class (A, B, C) than its [[reactor]].
