Superluminal Travel
Superluminal (or faster-than-light) travel is the key to an active spacefaring civilization.
A technological breakthrough previously believed impossible to achieve is now in the hands of anyone brave enough to venture the stars.

Utility
This is used in all modern spacecrafts, in order to let them fly vast distances in relatively short time, and it is the only thing making a multiplanetary society viable.
Besides helping in transportation of matter, it is also the speedy transportation of matter, that makes it possible to share information faster than the relatively slow flow of radio waves.

Social Impact
This is what makes it possible to send people out into space and expect them to return without thoussands of years have passed on Earth (or any planet) in the meantime.
It makes it possible for people to move from planet to planet, or even work as interstellar truckers or miners of asteroid belts.

Children Technologies
Access & Availability
The access to superliminal travel is readily accessable to all, however the purchase of a spacecraft requires enough money that most people will probably never own anything with the capability of reaching such speeds.
The technology is however available and legally available to all with the money for it.

Complexity
A device that makes superluminal travel possible is a very intricate piece of machinery that has taken quite some time to develop.
Any such device requires a very specific knowledge, skill set and equipment to make, making it practically impossible for any private person or group to do themselves.

Discovery
During the 21st century AD, the existance of extraterrestials became common knowledge.
For many decades leading up to this, videos and hearsay evidence had increased expotentially in quantity, and by the time official statements were made, most already had an inkling, however with the official announcement, many previously secret reports became publically available.
One thing that was abundantly clear from all the evidence, was the

I made this world because my mind keeps rambling, and instead of stopping it, I'm riding the wave.
It started with a picture in my mind of a tiger man in a small spacecraft following a giant tiger in space, in the tone of old saturday morning cartoons and the Heavy Metal animated movie.
Then came the idea of his occational ally, a woman in space flying a small asteroid. The more I wrote on her, the more I got intrigued by the past, I deviced.
Right now the flow is focused on her background - namely all related to The Genesis Project.
I do all of the writing and almost all of the drawing myself at this point.
My hope for Star Tiger is a published story or a graphical novel, but my big dream is an animated show.
