I'd have to check MT's SoM on Jump Drives, but that seems very new to me (creating an artificial singularity and then blowing up the pocket universe it opens up to...). That sounds more like a ship from Andromeda (the series) - I believe they used singularities as part of their High Drive.

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.

Howdy Rupert,

Can you please provide the source that indicated there is a bubble of hydrogen around the hull?

There may not be one. That's just how I interpret jumping. If it 
bothers, assume it all gets stuffed into jumpspace, never to be seen again.
