Plasma exhaust

Plasma exhaust is a waste product, which is produced by all fusion reactors in a starship's impulse engines.

• An excess build-up of EM residue in the vectored thrust nozzles can cause restricted plasma exhaust flow.

• Should the plasma ignite, it will not cause damage to a starship, as long as the vessel has its hull plating polarized, and is traveling at half-impulse.

• If the plasma exhaust flow too is near a starship, it can cause certain technical malfunctions aboard the vessel.
