A ship or spaceship in EVE Online is an entity used to traverse the heavens, battle enemy forces, ferry materials and products, provide logistical services along with many other uses. A ship may be piloted by a capsuleers(players) or non-player characters such as CONCORD, faction militaries, outlawed paramilitary and pirate forces and civilian industrialists.
Mechanics
Ships and cannot travel at near-lightspeeds without the use of warp drives. They accelerate by using their engines, almost always located at the stern of the ship. Initiating warp requires an object with mass or feigned mass. The ship will acquire this object as a target and a use warp drive in conjunction with sub-lightspeed thrusters to accelerate through a warp tunnel.
Ships can be built and stored in stations except for super-capital classes. Gates and wormholes are methods of travel that propel ships over great distances inaccessible through conventional means of travel. Capital class ships can use their built in jump drives to travel these great distances.
