OFRE class engines

Oxygen Fusion Reactor Engine (OFRE) were next step from FREs', for this kind of engine and it showed potential of this kind of technology. First colony ships that were sent used OFRE technology. downsides of this technology was the high temperature needed for this fusion to work, but the benefits out weighted the negatives. biggest benefit was how much more energy could be generated per metric ton. This was enough to scientists who started to develop electromagnetic shields for these spaceships.

Children Technologies

• EMS
• Hydrogen-Boron Fusion Reactor Engine

Complexity

FRE was used as a base for OFRE engine in the start, but FRE administration regulated that they needed their own building instructions in order to avoid accidents where the base FRE wasn't able to handle of being the base for OFRE. After the new guide lines were set, complexity and price of building OFRE was reduced.

Discovery

It was made by UEF scientists after there was need for a engine that could produce bigger energy output.
