Artificial Mass Generator

The Artificial Mass Generator is a unique technology used by the Viatorum Protectorate and their military force, Echelon.

Description & Characteristics
During the time spent in the far reaches of deep space, the Viatorum Protectorate managed to conduct various scientific experiments and observations normally rendered impossible by the Earth's gravity and distance to the Sun. One such experiment involved the creation and manipulation of exotic baryons (a form of exotic matter), which has a manipulatable mass. This lead to the creation of artificial mass generators, which could emit produce positive mass (and gravity) or negative mass (and anti-gravity).

While smaller ships could not support the Artificial Mass Generator, it was extensively used on capital ships and space stations to provide artificial gravity without the need for centrifugal force. It also provided the Protectorate and their forces with a far more intriguing development: the Gravity Drive.

Notes & Trivia

 * The Artificial Mass Generator was inspired by the Artificial Mass Block and Gravity Generator.
 * While the premise of Artificial Gravity without centrifugal force previously seemed to be overreaching within the Gundam franchise, the reveal of in the Post Disaster timeline makes this a more feasible technology now.
