    Can ships vary speed in hyperspace?

    Interesting question here but once in hyperspace can a ship vary it's speed?
    Please do me a huge favour and help me be with the love of my life.

    Yeah, Sam sunk the ship into a hyperspace bubble in Grace, that just barely phased the ship, but allowed it to move at normal speeds out of the cloud.
    I am sure you could probably go in hyperspace BELLOW lightspeed, if you fed the drive just barely enough power.

      hmmmm. yeah i guess. it's just that they never talk about it and in grace she couldn't go into hyperspace exactly.....

        Yeah, but she used the same principle.

          In lost city part 1. Oneill made the Goa'uld Hyperspace engine run a lot faster while they were using it.

            Most definitely.

            We've already seen it done with the Replicators. When they went after the O'Neill, they were able to catch up to it very quickly but were also able to slow down to avoid overtaking it or crashing into it.

                  Hyperspace is like merging onto a highway. In another dimension.

                        Slightly off-topic, but the F-302 used by O'niell to jump under Aubis' ship's shields made a jump that lasted a couple of seconds only to cross a few kilometers at best.
                        This shows that you can go even way slower than the speed of light (in complement to evidence from Grace).

                          Well as the power the hyperdrive has affects it's speed (Daedalus being faster with a ZPM) I think it'ssafe to assume that the hyperdrive engine can vary speed in hyperspace. Even if there isn't a system to do this if the power being diverted to the Hyperdrive were to decreased the Hyperdrive should slow down.

                            I don't beleive they can just change their speed in hyperspace like warp for example, but I do know they can give more juice into the engines to gain speed whilst being followed by enemy. But they cannot hold the speed for too long.

                              Why do you think this? There is no evidence to support such a statement.

                              The more power you feed to the engines, the faster you travel. That's why Daedalus normally takes about 3 weeks to get to Pegasus, but if you plug a ZPM into Daedalus' power grid, you can get there in 4 days.
