An acceleration gate is a structure in space, which allows reaching specific [[deadspace|deadspace pockets]]. Once activated, they initiate the ship's warp drive and propel it several thousand km in the gates facing direction. Acceleration gates are in a [[deadspace|deadspace pocket]] themself and connect the pockets of a [[deadspace|deadspace complex]] allowing travel between these, although usually only in one direction. A Spatial Rift is a variant of acceleration gates. | An '''acceleration gate''' is a structure in space, which allows reaching specific [[deadspace|deadspace pockets]].

Acceleration gate technology reaches far back to the expansion era of the empires that survived the great EVE | Acceleration gate technology reaches far back to the expansion era of the empires that survived the great [[EVE Gate]] collapse. While their individual setup might differ in terms of ship size they can transport and whether they require a certain passkey or code to be used, all share the same fundamental function of hurling space vessels to a destination beacon within solar system boundaries. | ||
