Hey Tom,
You may be thinking of Mongoose Traveller page 141 (1e), or page 168 (2e):
To jump, a ship creates a bubble of hyperspace by means of injecting highenergy exotic particles into an artificial singularity. The singularity is driven out of our universe, creating a tiny parallel universe which is then blown up like a balloon by injecting hydrogen into it. The jump bubble is folded around the ship, carrying it into the little pocket universe.
Thanks,
Steve
Afternoon WA time Rupert, Drat, I was hoping that there was documentation out there somewhere. GDW JTAS 24 1985 pp. 34-38 has the article Jumpspace written by Marc W. Miller in the Required Items p. 35 in the Power Source entry: "Jump uses large amounts of energy to rip open the barriers between normal space and jump space. Normally, only a fusion power plant can supply this energy." On pp. 35-36 the entry for Strong Hull states "Starship hulls contain as an integral part of their structure a network of wiring which maintains the jump field around the ship." Many years ago there was a link to a web site that did show jumps using hydrogen bubbles, unfortunately the site has disappeared.

That's just how I interpret jumping. If it bothers, assume it all gets stuffed into jumpspace, never to be seen again. -- Rupert Boleyn <xxxxxx@gmail.com> ----- The Traveller Mailing List Archives at https://nam03.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=http%3A%2F%2Farchives.simplelists.com%2Ftml&data=02%7C01%7C%7C1d8e99d1d1024b34111608d81498e735%7C84df9e7fe9f640afb435aaaaaaaaaaaa%7C1%7C0%7C637281994226275251&sdata=xaL5R%2BjlV7sLw9E%2FuYWCnVYLfQwEKqMItnkBevOm0Lo%3D&reserved=0 Report problems to xxxxxx@simplelists.com To unsubscribe from this list please go to https://nam03.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=http%3A%2F%2Farchives.simplelists.com%2F&data=02%7C01%7C%7C1d8e99d1d1024b34111608d81498e735%7C84df9e7fe9f640afb435aaaaaaaaaaaa%7C1%7C0%7C637281994226285246&sdata=WF8zXFBtg%2Bwsrwra173xpQouoodbhkqHz3rh67jK2ss%3D&reserved=0----- The Traveller Mailing List Archives at https://nam03.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=http%3A%2F%2Farchives.simplelists.com%2Ftml&data=02%7C01%7C%7C1d8e99d1d1024b34111608d81498e735%7C84df9e7fe9f640afb435aaaaaaaaaaaa%7C1%7C0%7C637281994226285246&sdata=lOmNYAEqzI%2FP6EDxHzP6SWm5XcGLkBJidPSPMQhcnFY%3D&reserved=0 Report problems to xxxxxx@simplelists.com To unsubscribe from this list please go to https://nam03.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.simplelists.com%2Fconfirm.php%3Fu%3D05rFs00moib3hyYki3dKH81F3xEPQfXW&data=02%7C01%7C%7C1d8e99d1d1024b34111608d81498e735%7C84df9e7fe9f640afb435aaaaaaaaaaaa%7C1%7C0%7C637281994226285246&sdata=tuadZjP2t2D2OT5V5eKJWDMPcZESVesDbgQ0fM0njzk%3D&reserved=0
