Answering your question about the engines is not a simply one, because we have 'engines', we have more then one type.
For Warp Drive we have:
Our top speed is warp 4. If you recall Warp Speed
| Multiple of light Speed
| 1
| 1x
| | 2 | 10x | 3
| 39x | 4
| 102x
| | 5 | 213x | | 6 | 392x | 7
| 656x | | 8 | 1024x | | 9 | 1516x | | 9.9 | 3053x | | 9.975 | 6395x | 9.99
| 7912x
| 9.99999
| 199,516x
| 10
| Infinite Velocity

Believe it or not we also have a Trans Warp Drive.
Trans Warp
Trans warp is faster then warp, and although we can achieve it, we can't not maintain it, it is only good for short bursts in an emergency get away situation.
Quantum Slip Stream
This is also faster then warp, but much more friendly to our station, we can achieve and maintain this for no longer then four hour segments. What Quantum slip stream does , it " creates a subspace tunnel, which is projected ahead of the vessel. Once a ship has entered this tunnel, the forces inside propel it at incredible speed. To maintain the slipstream, a ship has to constantly modify the quantum field with its deflector dish." And because we are so large anything over four hours can cause us or others, as in planetary systems harm. Our Weight and size also takes a considerable amount of energy to maintain, and anything over four hours will compromise other systems on the station. We would need 48 hours to recover before attempting it again.
FTL ( Faster then Light Technologies)
FTL also called a jump drive, "A jump drive is supposed to make a spaceship (or any matter) go from one point in space to another point, which may be several light years away, in a single instant."
We are capable of doing this, but again, we are limited to our size, the most we are to jump is 8 light years away, and it is done with extreme caution, and I would say as a last resort, because we are so large, we don't want to take out a planet or a moon. If we use this option, we need to wait 48 hours before being able to jump again, if in an extreme emergency, we can do it in 24 hours, but that would require taking energy from all systems including life support.

We do have another "engine" as you call it, but I am not permitted to disclose it to you, under instructions of the Ancients, only under extreme dire emergency and all other options have been tried, only then am I permitted to share that with you, unless the Ancients share it with you themselves.

I should mention this, but I have no more data on it, there are believe it or not, 3 Star Gates, but I do not have their locations, that are big enough for us to travel through, and they were made by the Ancients. If I were to guess, I would say they are outside of our systems.
I only have reference to them, nothing more.

Thank you Alia,
I am a bit over whelmed I had no idea that we had so many options, and limitations.

Ok, do you have an idea of what name you would like?
Are the warp engines warming up?

The warp engines are warming up.
I don't know yet.

You'll let me know when you find a name that you like.
Why so many type of engines?

Never mind, you don't need to answer why so many types of engines, I understand.

I have been avoiding what people used to call 'paper work', but I should get caught up.
Sitting in the Command Centre, presses a few buttons, and starts to narrate,
Captain's Log ...
OOC I've created a thread just for Captain's Logs.

stop recording. That was a bit emotionally draining, I could use a good walk, or maybe a good swim  . Alia, I'll be in the Holosuites.
Leaves for the TTT. |

I'll put that call out to the ships, they engines are ready now, and the diagnostics look good.

Comm to The Drifter, The Demon Hawk & The Stealth
Message received, we'll maintain our current position until all return.
Comm to the holosuites, to the Captain
I've had communication with the three ships, The Drifter, The Demon Hawk, The Stealth, they are on there way back, The Drifter will arrive first, then the Stealth, and then The Demon Hawk, who is protecting The Stealth's back side, as its some unknown damaged.

comm. coming into range of Solaris.... Solaris request permission to dock and we are in need of repairs.

Thanks to herself, The Drifter needs repairs? I hope they are minor, or the Captain might not be too pleased.
Acknowledge Oliver, The Drifter needs repairs, I'll open a portal in the station's shields at the Engineering level, you'll go to Repair Bay 1.

Return Comm
Major Voss, I've cleared Repair Bay 2 for you on the Engineering level, when you get closer to Solaris, I'll open a portal in front of that bay. Does anyone need medical attention?

Comm to the Captain,
The Drifter has landed, there are a few minor repairs needed, they are in the Repair bays of Engineering.
The Stealth is a few hours behind in arriving, there is extensive damage, and I assume The Demon Hawk is behind the Stealth.
