Template:CenteredHeadersVela Aerospace travel is a facet of daily life in every corner of Kachiro. Over the thousands of years, corporations and space agencies have designed a myriad air- and spaceships, gradually necessitating the development of standardized categorization systems. In the present day, the following systems are widely recognized by the constellation's superpowers:
- Triton model: divides ships into overarching categories based travel capabilities in air and space.
- Imperial system: designed to divide the roles of military vessels by their weaponry and flight characteristics.

Starcruisers
Starcruisers are capable of both surface-to-orbit- and interstellar flight, a versatile middle ground between the interplanetary shuttles and orbital voidships. Consequently, they are the prevailing class in the constellation, frequently observed in the hands of navies, businesses, and civilians. Unlike with voidships, the reality breaches in riftspace have to be evaded by hand, and the continuum distortions caused by Seraph drives act as a limitation in their range, typically enough to cross a single galactic region before having to recharge.
Voidships
Voidships are a category of vessels that are too massive to descend on any celestial bodies, relying on shuttles to conduct planetary business. Their specialized construction is easily able to tolerate continuous Seraph distortions, negate any breaches in riftspace, and easily cross intergalactic routes. Starcruisers are the backbone of the intergalactic society and single-handedly uphold the infrastructure in nearly every region of the constellation.
