A tachyon eddy is a current of tachyons in interstellar space. In 2371, Benjamin Sisko discovered that tachyon eddies in the Denorios Belt accelerated ancient Bajoran lightships to faster than light speeds, which enabled them to reach Cardassia. Sisko and Jake Sisko's lightship the Baraka entered such a tachyon eddy. (DS9 episode: "Explorers")

- Tachyon eddies were naturally-occurring streams of tachyons found throughout the Bajoran system. Although normally unnoticed by spacecraft, these tachyon eddies were capable of propelling a solar sail spacecraft to faster-than-light speeds because of their large surface area-to-mass ratio. In the 16th century, tachyon eddies allowed Bajoran lightships to sail from Bajor to Cardassia, a distance of several light years. In 2371, a replica Bajoran lightship, piloted by Benjamin Sisko and his son Jake, was caught by a tachyon eddy and swept to Cardassia in the same manner. (DS9: "Explorers")
