“This
is the thermo-carrier we use to travel swiftly between bases.”
“How does it work?” asked Talbot, intrigued.
“It’s very basic science actually,” the controller explained, flicking a
few more switches above his head.
“Throughout the Earth there is a constant stream of heat which, when in
a controlled environment such as this thermo-tube in combination with normal
gravitational energy manipulated by the hull of the carrier, can be harnessed
to propel a large transport at incredible speeds underground.”
“I’m glad you said it was basic; I’d hate for every single thing you
just said to have gone completely over my head.”
