N.T.S. Discovery
Worldship constructed and used by the Tranal Nomads.
N.T.S. Discovery is one of the smallest but most advanced worldships of the Dawn fleet escorting the legendary N.T.S. Dawn.
NTS Discovery was built to test out yet another design of fusion reactors. This design was highly compact, and fuses according to the entire proton-proton chain of nuclear reactions, at a fast rate, and safely. All of these advantages mean that it is commonly accepted that this type of fusion reactor would largely exceed the capabilities of the other worldships. Much of the TN navy has then been upgraded with this type of fusion reactor.
N.T.S. Discovery was however one of the most recent. It was only built well after the TN figured out how to warp between star systems, shortly before they learned intergalactic travel and have already launched a multitude of very large worldship fleets.
After this was tested to work effectively, the ship has been retrofitted for proper use. It has been armed with several kinds of weapons and has a significant population moved into it. Its temporary FTL drive was removed and replaced with a drive that was built to last.
