An overview of common technologies in the Alliance.

• halo-arch
• medimage platforms
• aap

• entropy packets

Well Drive

Has five "speeds":

• 1
• 2
• 3 (The Lip of the Well); most civilian ships stop here.
• 4 Courier ships occasionally go this speed.
• 5 (The Well's Deep) This speed is only typical of Fleet vessels pushing things.

Visual and Holographic Technology

• 3deo
• Viseo
• Solidographs
• Dominoes
• Roquelares

Need something here about encryption types and real-time ("well-pushed") streams.

Minor Tech

• Data tablets
• Data wands
• Eye films
• Repeaters
• Sendaine storage lockers (locked in some specific way? Mentioned in Earthrise)
• Stasis discs
• Stasis pins
• Telegems
• other stuff I've probably mentioned and forgotten
• Breathnache, an extremely hard, tough substance that can be sharpened to a very fine edge; it can cut stone, metal, and transmetal alloys, and can scratch diamond. Constructed atom by atom. Used for applications like starship structural pieces, as well as for Alysha Forrest's replacement claws
• Antigrav parachutes, consisting of a small but right T-shaped frame on the back and chest
• Snowplow generators, which create a field that either pushes debris away from the ship or vaporizes it. Not necessary while in Well.
