Line 28:
*The craft also has a small [[Salazarium]]-based artificial gravity generator installed aboard. The AG-generator works by artifically stimulating the Salazarium inside the device to generate a localized field of graviton particles that act to simulate a near-Earth normal gravitational field throughout the craft. As with the IDF generator, the energy drain is such that it is used only when needed. (Because of the nature of her powers, [[Quinn Morgendorffer]] can interface with a [[modulator cuff]] attached to the generator and provide the device with a conditionally unlimited energy source; also, the cuff allows power to be absorbed from Quinn even when she is asleep or unconscious.)
 
*The craft can carry a 'universal transfer chamber' - a chamber the size of a subcompact car, which can either allow the ''Gridrunner'' to connect with a spacecraft or the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/International_Space_Station International Space Station], as well as serve as a 'lifepod' that can be attached to the distressed craft so that up to five persons can be rescued and brought aboard the ''Gridrunner''.
 
*The ''Gridrunner'' has two additional coats of Secondary Adamantium coating over the hull to further protect the craft from the heat of re-entry caused by friction, and a single-use force-screen emitter designed as the craft's primary heat during re-entry. (In addition, the on-board systems are all hardened against [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electromagnetic_pulse EMP] so that if necessary, [[Jane Lane]] could use her own magnetic force-fields to protect the ship - although, in such a circumstance, she has the ability to return the craft to Earth under her own power. Likewise, Michael Mackenzie ([[Mack]]') solar powers could easily absorb or dissipate the heat build-up during re-entry.)
