<p>The shared universe from TVoD.</p>
<blockquote>
In a far-flung galaxy, a series of conduits, called chimneys, connects disparate interstellar regions to each other. The entrance to these chimneys, called flues, are large and impressive interstellar gates, capable of warping a ship from one system to another, if one knows how to navigate them.
At the center of this galactic system is a semi-mythical solar system called The Fireplace. Few have traveled there and returned, and those that did have confused, sometimes conflicting stories about what they have seen. Many regard the Fireplace as nothing more than a legend, a trap to beguile the foolish who seek to claim control over the chimneys for themselves.
Inside of the chimneys, the normal rules of physics do not seem to apply--if one knows the pathways, one can travel from one flue to another in a matter of hours or days. Outside, however, the rules apply as they always have.
The speed of light is 1.86x10^5 miles per second (6.71x10^8 miles per hour). At that speed, on average, it would take 5 years to travel from one star system to the next.
The fastest ships are capable of travelling on their own is ten times that speed. These rare and expensive ships could manage to go between star systems in merely six months (discounting relativistic nonsense)
The universe is a Ring shaped galaxy composed primarily of a thick band of stars surrounding a mostly but not completely empty void, which itself surrounds a hot, dense galactic core.
The core is approximately 17 kilolightyears across, while the entire galaxy has a diameter of approximately 121 kilolightyears. The outer ring is about 50 kilolightyears in diameter.
It is assumed that the Fireplace lies somewhere in the Core, though this remains, as yet, unconfirmed.
