FTL Drive

1. FTL drive is the name for a variety of concepts which allow a vehicle to move at speeds faster than light in a vacuum. It is the mother concept of hyperdrive, jump drive, warp drive and numerous other speculative inventions. Such devices have not yet been produced in real life.

2. FTL drive in the re-imagined Battlestar Galactica is a device which bends space, allowing a spacecraft to instantly relocate between two points.

FTL forum

(noun)

Stands for "Faster than Light forum." A forum with so many posts being made that previous threads and posts are very quickly buried by others. Popularized on the Bioware Social Network (BSN), since Bioware's Mass Effect science fiction games frequently use and reference FTL space travel.
I need to constantly bump on this thread so it isn't immediately buried and forgotten in these FTL forums.

FTL Drive

Battlestar Galactica Series refers to the FTL Drive when they need to 'jump' into 'hyper-space' (they don't refer to it as 'hyper-space'. They have a countdown to the 'jump' which seems to happen for just a second and the ship then appears at the destination point.
