Temporal transporters are an advancement on transporter technology, allowing the user to transport to a desired space and time. It gives off a chroniton flux of 0.003.


Wells-class timeships are equipped with temporal transporters. The transporter is used in unison with several other technologies, such as temporal sensors and temporal shields. Temporal sensors allow for the precise moment and location for the transport to occur, and temporal shields are raised before making any temporal transports. Presumably, this is so that if the agent sent back in time alters the timeline, the ship is not affected (for example, being erased from history, or never existing in the first place.)


This type of transporter is dangerous to be used routinely, by one person repetitively over a short period of time. It causes temporal psychosis, a psychological effect of using the transporter several times, that leaves the user mentally unstable, or even dead.
