Artificial gravity tech is common in the habitation areas of vessels. The rest of the vessel is left in zero-g to save power, except on luxury ships. Artificial gravity is also used for reactionless propulsion on vessels. Performance and bulk are comparable to modern jet and rocket propulsion. Man portable versions exist in the lab, but are impractical due to power cell consumption and heat management issues.
Question 36 [SET]
Upthread, it was mentioned that ships need to refuel. But ships use artificial gravity rather than reaction mass for propulsion. Why do they need to stop and refuel between systems? (d6: 3 Sentences)
