Faster Than Light Travel

I feel there needs to be a discussion on the greatly overlooked fact that the Ships that we fly are FTL capable, but it is not mentioned in the lore as to what grants the capability of FTL travel. [Just as an edit, I am more interested in the link between the Ships FTL ability and the Vex's ability to teleport. For Lore purposes] I want to try throw physics at the issue as I feel that there must be a link between the device that grants FTL travel and the Vex networks. I have a theory that the Traveller and The Light have given Humanity the blueprints to create such a device which may have been refined with how the Vex travel between spaces. My evidence is the fact that there is no evidence towards Humanity having FTL travel before the collapse. (Correct me if I'm wrong) The Transmat system the Ghosts use must have some link to FTL abilities, as the ships are essentially teleporting between planets. The system the ships use must be different as no ship ever goes FTL in atmosphere, where as Transmat is used pretty much anywhere. What bothers me here is why Ships can't be Transmatted between planets when Ghosts on their own are capable of doing just that. On top of all that is the fact neither FTL or Transmatt capabilities should be able to exist. I can't find a way to explain either one logically such that it doesn't create paradoxes or a ton more questions that can only be answered with silly excuses. I don't want to bring up outside sources such as Halo but in Halo there was a more refined Lore on FTL travel, most specifically in the books and i feel there needs to be more information on the Ships FTL Drives in Destiny. Other things such as what type of thrusters the Ships use, what fuel they use doesn't seem to be mentioned anywhere. At this point you would think Humanity would start building larger ships to use as offensive structures and mobile command posts to try extend Human controlled territories around Earth and onto other planets. I will add to this post when I get more time but for now I want some peoples opinions on the matters at hand.

  • Ships in destiny don't seem to function like other items. When a jumpship is broken, Ghost can't just fix it like you or your gear and weapons. It has to get sent back to the tower hangar for repairs by Holiday and the other Shipwrights. This is also the reason why I think Destiny won't be including space battles, or at least space PvP battles, anytime soon. Furthermore, while you are on a planet, Ghost can't just pack up your ship into your inventory with your other stuff, it flies away, and stays in orbit until you call it back down, or beam up to it. And yes, even during the Golden Age, they hadn't quite figured out how to reach other Solar Systems yet. The Darkness arrived and ruined any plans of interstellar travel we had. But once we beat the darkness and bring back the golden age, we will most likely return to trying to crack that code. [i]sidenote:[/i] I'm not actually sure if Ghosts can just teleport to other planets. Even Vex. I believe in the Cabal Grimoire card, the ghost says it was a stowaway on a one way trip to Mars, and it was already too far from the traveler to make it back on its own. It couldn't find a guardian but it did gather Intel on the cabal for us. As for the Vex, they can teleport to different locations on a planet, but interplanetary travel means they have to first enter a nexus, like the Black Garden, and cross through a designated gate to get from Planet to Planet, or Star to Star, maybe even Galaxy to Galaxy. They have gate networks on every planet, even on Earth, but a lot of them are dormant for some reason, which is why we don't see them on Earth to my understanding. Just throwing in some food for thought.
