This page is about the ship class. For the game, see Daedalus.
The Daedalus is a special transport ship used by Wormhole Engineers, the purpose of which is to expand the inhabited universe. Daedalus ships embark from a human-inhabited region of space with a microwormhole and arrive in a new star system, usually containing a planet suitable for colonization. Upon arrival crew members will be awoken from stasis and land on the planet. It is there that they will expand the opening of the wormhole allowing for near-instantaneous travel between the ship's origin and its destination. Due to the speeds at which the ship travels, any crew members on board will age unusually slowly.
