The great Teknokon ships are the only widely-used means of transportation in Timeless Space. They resemble wooden seafaring ships, but are computer-driven technological marvels made of plastin. The larger ships are armed with cannons. These cannons fire what is assumed to be lasers, but unlike normal lasers, they have a travel speed of well below the speed of light, they are limited to a range of less than line-of-sight, and they cause an explosion upon impact. The ships are powered apparently by their powersails, which seem to generate electricity from time energy if the word "chronalectric" is accurate. The ships generate motive power from some sort of thruster nacelle on the stern. To operate correctly, the powersails must be balanced. To facilitate this, the shipboard computer can be m

The ships generate motive power from some sort of thruster nacelle on the stern. To operate correctly, the powersails must be balanced. To facilitate this, the shipboard computer can be made to network the powersails. These ships were built by the technologists of Kada Jansen's time, and her computer is able to access and control their systems.
