Lore
Whoever maps the route sets the terms. The Prospectus reaches uncharted systems while other scouts are still calculating jump sequences — the fastest exploration hull in production, built to cover more ground per hour than anything else flying a survey flag. The fuel tank is oversized to compensate for what speed costs: at this velocity, range is a resource that burns fast, and smart captains plan refueling stops rather than assuming they can reach the edge and come back. Market-analysis sensors assess commercial potential in real time — resource deposits, traffic patterns, station demand gaps — so the data arrives formatted as a business case before the competition has even departed. The hull is thin and the weapon mount is an afterthought. Speed is the defense.
