Description:
This is the ability
to literally control the force of gravity. Since gravity is
(apparently; they've never been observed) mediated by some light-speed
particles (gravitons) traveling between one gravitating body and the
other, there might be a way to artificially. Generally this takes
the form of space ships that are exceptionally efficient at
accelerating (but always slower than light speed) and making heavy
construction and mining equipment cheaper and more effective.
Higher levels of development of Gravity Control
(dev) allow drives to be more efficient, cheaper, and allow higher
accelerations. Gravity control infrastructure gets more effective
and cheaper with development.
