Astral Unit - AU
The Astral Unit (AU) is the standard measurement of distance in the Astral. There is no consistent conversion between an AU and a light year, making precise distances difficult to judge. A standard cluster of stars is considered to be a 100 AU sphere, as 50 AU is the maximum distance that FTL nodes can communicate in a single pair.
Most ships in the universe can travel between 5 and 7 AU every 24 hours. Some ships can move faster, with the fastest known courier ships traveling at 10 AU per day, while some freighters can only manage 1 or 2 AU per day.
Most wyrmgates have a maximum range of 100AU, however others exist with more power and more range.
