The filaments of slipspace are known by the precursors as neural links. Where everything both living and not is connected. The reason travel between different systems takes different time is because of the natural bias some systems have to connect to others, or stay connected with others.

Sean Groarke I don’t really like what 343 did with the forerunners and they relied far to much on books and comics to finish storylines.

The Gravemind, with its millennia of knowledge retained from the days of the Forerunners, most likely understood Forerunner slipspace technology and modified the In Amber Clad's Shaw-Fujikawa Translight Engine so it could accurately make the jump into High Charity.
It’s crazy how all of this is explaining space travel in a science-fiction universe. It’s crazy how in depth and sophisticated it is. Is it based on real theories on how this might work in real life? Or is it all made up by somebody very smart?
Darth Vader I kinda believe all science fiction is based on some form of reality. Im fairly sure, before the atomic bomb was built there was a fiction book about an “atomic bomb” and well we ended up making them. I remember reading that along time ago. So I’ll have to look into it. But I believe it also helped the US take atomic research seriously in Ww2 as it was still pretty “new” and really only Germany and the US took any real interest in it.
Humans figured out how to enter slipstream like 3 different times I'd be really neat if there was a novel where they find something immensely more advanced then a forerunner artifact and then realize it's of human origin also, normal space is non euclidean, which is why calculus is need to compensate where the euclidean accounting of geometry falls flat reeeeee
I know ancient humans and current humans discovered slipspace… when was the third discovery? also the forerunners were far more advanced than ancient humans... the only thing the humans had over the forerunners was a particular weapon developed by the human/prophet(cant remember their actual name lol) alliance... and it was noted that the forerunners had no defence against it. also the humans built around the precursor artefacts... something the forerunners didn't do regardless however the only advantage that provided was fortification. the human/forerunner war was brutal but there was no way humanity could have won even with their alliance... the forerunners never lost an inch of ground during the entire conflict
So if the reconciliation aspect of the drive doesn’t work properly... than Jorge May be floating around somewhere out there?? In some other timeline/paradox?
He'll either be in the past, present, future & elsewhere in the universe due how spacetime works. 343i could bring him back with this aspect of the lore covered.
Well since there was no bubble to contain 3d space within slipspace we can assume that everything in the slipspace explosion Jorge died in, including Jorge himself was instantly disintegrated upon entering slipspace. Jorge cannot possibly be alive.

@@punctuationman334 Yup. That is definitely one of the videos that stand out to me. Now, I will say that the Resurgent-class Star Destroyer is a marked improvement over either the Imperial I-class or Imperial II-class Star Destroyers. It was larger, had better defensive systems (and not just in comparison to the neutered systems of its predecessor classes), and it didn't sacrifice firepower and offensive capability to have better defenses, either. It also employed the use of missiles, which is admittedly more of a personal preference as I feel far too few factions or individual ships utilize them within the Star Wars franchise. But, even with all of those advancements, to suggest that the Resurgent-class Star Destroyer could reasonably expect to win any engagement with the UNSC Infinity, which was more than twice its length and outstripped it several times over in sheer tonnage, to say nothing about the Infinity's own offensive and defensive capabilities, is ridiculous. Sure, Star Wars shielding technology may be able to screen against physical objects, despite the common misconception among those who frequent forum VS threads. But, there's nothing within Star Wars continuity that would support the assertion that *shipboard* particle shielding could stand up to something like a MAC round impacting it, especially not one fired from the Infinity's Super MACs.

Not a HALO (?) player...I am simply here for the Sci-fi bits... And the last part about the hyper cube was fascinating... Though to me, it wasn't as mind bending as it is to most... Probably since my own perception of time isn't normal to begin with. There was a fascinating book trilogy relating to upper dimensional artifacts that I read a while back... And that was even more mind bending than even the simple hyper cube... And yet I still managed to wrap my head around the various levels of dimensionality. Yes, I am technically boasting... But since I have no idea how I am able to do this, it isn't the most useful of things to talk about with most people.
An 8 sided cube where all of the angles are 90 degrees and every side of the cube is a 3 dimensional cube with every side of the cube with angles of 90 degrees... REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
A easier way to visualize a hyper cube (may be wrong), is to move a cube from a to b, then record the position of each point on the cube through each pint in time displaced by the distance it moved.
You made this surprisingly easy to follow. As a fan of the halo series, I did my own research into this, but I've never seen slipspace explained anywhere with such fluidity that anyone who understands some of the base concepts would be able to grasp.
You really do deserve more subs. The level intricacy of the subject(s) you gross us in ( within the halo universe), is not just entertaining but also educational; using real world science in your discussions of the technology, within Halo. Not only that, your extensive knowledge of all the events which have occurred throughout the timeline, are truly impressive. You haven't just made me a fan of content - but you have also rekindled the inner fan in me for Halo itself - and for that I am truly grateful and thankful. Please continue this dedication, not just to your channel, but above all, for the franchise it'self. Thankyou.
Does anyone have a good explanation as to why Spartans always seem to die from one or two needles? Was this before energy shields were used in MJOLNIR or something else??
Depends. If you're talking in game, it will be simply due to game dynamics. In the lore however, you have to consider what you're dealing with. A needle from a needler is an extraordinarily sharp crystalline stake filled with an unknown mechanism of guidance and detonation. The needle travels at a decent velocity, and the impact would quickly weaken the shields, likely due to a plasma or electromagnetic effect. Once the shields are drained, the needle would be able to penetrate the softer armor at the joints fairly easily and would likely become wedged in the armor plating due to many of MJOLNIR armors plating being hollow plates. At this point, the needle detonates in a fairly powerful blast, sending smaller fragments of the needles crystalline material outwards in all directions with likely a plasm medium also taking effect. This also means the fragments will end up deep into the body. The sheer visceral soft tissue damage would be so high that the Spartan would very quickly bleed out. In real world terms, plasma is so hot that repeated shots from plasma weaponry would heat up and likely melt the titanium plating of MJOLNIR armor in just a few unshielded hits. Hope that helps!
Installation00 I was referring to the lore, and yes thank you answered all my questions in one response with amazing detail, also thank you for your time and dedication to the research you do, really on point keep it up. hope to see you reach the top with all the other halo lore you tubers!
In the lore, the problems with covenant needles is that they impale and then have a good chance of exploding. It causes havok on the body and victims often bleed to death because of the wound. Because of the energy in the needles and just how damn sharp they are, they can pierce mjolnir's underlayer quite easily, because of their self guidance they often do penetrate this underlayer much more frequently than normal ammunition. If a spartan is out of biofoam and can't stop the huge amount of bleeding caused by the needle, well... Spartans never die, they're just missing in action.
Wait? Aren't needles crystal impenetrable to MJLNIOR armour? Halo 4: Forward Unto Dawn shows Jackals shooting John & with the needles deflecting or exploding on impact?
Your videos are so good, I’m so glad I stumbled upon your comment about chiefs death on Twitter! I’ve always wanted to do a RUclips channel called SGT KILLJOY and cover all things weapon and fire power in the Halo Universe. But I don’t have video talents, scripting talents, or computer talents...
Can I simply say I love all your videos. I could listen to you talk about anything. As here I am listening about slipspace and terms I can’t even start to really understand lol.
for those who would like to see what motion in 4 dimensions would look like please go look at the video from 3Blue1Brown called Visualizing quaternions (4d numbers) with stereographic projection
Basically, wormhole tunnels. they twist the fabric like vortex, the fabric contracts and shrinks just like a water vortex. anything that travels within it travels much faster becaue the space fabric is compressed by the twisting of it, 1 mile of space, turns into 1 foot of space. its like getting a thread, and twisting it from both end, until it shrinks smaller and smaller. it shrinks because the threads tangle up more compact. thats how wormholes work essentially, but instead of strings, or water analogies, its with the fabric of space.
started getting into D&D ethereal plane like stuff in the later parts there a lot of what was described there has an equivalent in the forgotten realms the "slipspace bubble" being akin to the famed "bag of holding" and similar artificial demiplane storage. granted the ethereal plane is also used for "ethereal travel" in which you cross into the border ethereal at a space it shares with the plane you entered from, cross into the deep ethereal which is the space between spaces, then cross back into the border ethereal sharing a space with the location you want to be in then reenter at that space. depending on how good the traveler is at concentrating on the concepts of these spaces this can take between hours and seconds for those who play D&D and didnt know about this it is the purpose of the "etherealness" spell or at least one of them.
The Marvel Cinematic Universe missed an opportunity for an extremely cool effect. A true tesseract would appear to twist, warp, turn inside-out, etc as different 3D slices of its 4D structure intersect with the 3 dimensions we perceive. Unfortunately, all we got was a glowing blue cube.
Sorry didn’t see this amazing video sooner can’t wait to get home with a pen and paper and take some notes on this amazing analysis so I can Meld it with my research on the topic thanks so much for all these great video content
4th dimensional objects are in every possible position obtainable in a given point in time all at once until observed upon in in which its most probable orientation is visible (to us anyway)
Still waiting to hear more about those other types of space, denial of locale, shuntspace, trick geodetics, natal void.....The Glow I get because cryptum but dammit, I wanna know more about these other things!
I find it interesting how the Covenant had the more advanced technology and hardware, but humans has the more advanced calculations and software, so when either gets ahold of the other, they suddenly have a huge advantage against the Galaxy as a whole.
The covenant was extremely advanced in some areas but they were stagnant. Their tech was basically reverse engineered forerunner tech courtesy of the hurogak/engineers. The san'shyuum were dogmatic and there wasn't much progress in a lot of areas after a certain level was reached. In the books it's mentioned that they're slow to react. For example I think it was after John was on a covenant ship and explained the layout/security protocol to the UNSC it remained unchanged the entire war. While the unsc would have completely changed everything after there was a breach. At least that's what the books say.
Note: by default, in a topological space there is no distance function. Depending on what separation axioms apply to a given topology, the topology may be metrizable, meaning a metric (generalized distance function) can be applied to the topology. At weakest we want a T2 separable, called Hausdorff, space. This is where given any two distinct points, you can put a bubble around each point such that the bubbles do not intersect. However, some topologies do not even satisfy even T0 separability, such as a one point compactification of the number line. T0 separability means that given any two distinct points, you can put a bubble around one point such that the bubble does not include the other point. If a topology is not even T0 then there is no hope of metrizing the topology.
I'll be honest, I dont think I've had anyone say anything specifically about volume problems. That being said, if there are, I will certainly look into it!
Your videos are fantastic. Would love if you were to invest in a better microphone to make your voice more robust but that comes with more views. Keep on keeping on!
Can slipspace be used to jump past the immediate area of effect of a halo ring activation essentially just popping up behind the wave of destruction where it had already been thus avoiding the effect of halo and surviving?
Are there any plans for videos on other pocket dimensions in the Halo universe? I'm really interested in the prospect of learning about these alien dimensions and how they affect normal space objects and organisms. Even better, is it possible for a species to live or even originate in Slipspace or the other dimensions?
Understanding a multi-dimension concept isn’t actually all that difficult. However! Survival and living in such a plane of existence with a physical, and mental, form not adapted to said dimensional plane is a much different story.
If anyone read the book, "A Wrinkle in Time". Basically, a good summary of what Slipspace is. And do yourself a favor and read the book. Do not watch the movie.

This is THE definitive source for all things Slipspace in Halo. Incredible amount of collating and research, and a well produced video. Well done
Oof, I was perplexed by slipspace before, but now I don’t know anything. Thanks bro, love this channel
An 8 sided cube where all of the angles are 90 degrees and every side of the cube is a 3 dimensional cube with every side of the cube with angles of 90 degrees... REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
A easier way to visualize a hyper cube (may be wrong), is to move a cube from a to b, then record the position of each point on the cube through each pint in time displaced by the distance it moved.
A brilliant explanation of such an ubiquitous but complex concept within the universe! Thanks a bunch for doing it!
You made this surprisingly easy to follow. As a fan of the halo series, I did my own research into this, but I've never seen slipspace explained anywhere with such fluidity that anyone who understands some of the base concepts would be able to grasp.
Your clearly a very clever chap. Thank you for these fascinating and enjoyable videos.
You really do deserve more subs. The level intricacy of the subject(s) you gross us in ( within the halo universe), is not just entertaining but also educational; using real world science in your discussions of the technology, within Halo.
Not only that, your extensive knowledge of all the events which have occurred throughout the timeline, are truly impressive.
You haven't just made me a fan of content - but you have also rekindled the inner fan in me for Halo itself - and for that I am truly grateful and thankful. Please continue this dedication, not just to your channel, but above all, for the franchise it'self.
Thankyou.
Slipspace is just the nether from minecraft
One of if not my favorite halo channel. The amount of work and description you out in is astounding. Keep up the AMAZING work!
Does anyone have a good explanation as to why Spartans always seem to die from one or two needles? Was this before energy shields were used in MJOLNIR or something else??
Depends. If you're talking in game, it will be simply due to game dynamics. In the lore however, you have to consider what you're dealing with. A needle from a needler is an extraordinarily sharp crystalline stake filled with an unknown mechanism of guidance and detonation. The needle travels at a decent velocity, and the impact would quickly weaken the shields, likely due to a plasma or electromagnetic effect. Once the shields are drained, the needle would be able to penetrate the softer armor at the joints fairly easily and would likely become wedged in the armor plating due to many of MJOLNIR armors plating being hollow plates. At this point, the needle detonates in a fairly powerful blast, sending smaller fragments of the needles crystalline material outwards in all directions with likely a plasm medium also taking effect. This also means the fragments will end up deep into the body. The sheer visceral soft tissue damage would be so high that the Spartan would very quickly bleed out.
In real world terms, plasma is so hot that repeated shots from plasma weaponry would heat up and likely melt the titanium plating of MJOLNIR armor in just a few unshielded hits.
Hope that helps!
Installation00 I was referring to the lore, and yes thank you answered all my questions in one response with amazing detail, also thank you for your time and dedication to the research you do, really on point keep it up. hope to see you reach the top with all the other halo lore you tubers!
In the lore, the problems with covenant needles is that they impale and then have a good chance of exploding. It causes havok on the body and victims often bleed to death because of the wound.
Because of the energy in the needles and just how damn sharp they are, they can pierce mjolnir's underlayer quite easily, because of their self guidance they often do penetrate this underlayer much more frequently than normal ammunition. If a spartan is out of biofoam and can't stop the huge amount of bleeding caused by the needle, well...
Spartans never die, they're just missing in action.
Wait? Aren't needles crystal impenetrable to MJLNIOR armour? Halo 4: Forward Unto Dawn shows Jackals shooting John & with the needles deflecting or exploding on impact?
Thinking about Needlers and plasma weaponry, I think about the human defenders who had fight the Covenant... poor bastards.
Your videos are so good, I’m so glad I stumbled upon your comment about chiefs death on Twitter! I’ve always wanted to do a RUclips channel called SGT KILLJOY and cover all things weapon and fire power in the Halo Universe. But I don’t have video talents, scripting talents, or computer talents...
Man you do really work hard on these it’s really fucking good stuff man keep er goin
Can I simply say I love all your videos. I could listen to you talk about anything. As here I am listening about slipspace and terms I can’t even start to really understand lol.
holy crap your voice...
It's so luxurious and smooth, you can make some really decent lullabies with it. I'm diggin this!
Congrats on hitting 10K supreme loremaster!
a 38 minute video about just slipstream space, impressive
This was my first look at Anders during Halo Wars 2 (haven't had the money to buy it) and damn, she got even hotter between games lol
Lol, i thought the same thing
dang, i was really hoping for some description of 5 dimensional space. i've understood tesseracts since middle school
As fickle and confusing as it may be, at least it's not the Warp.
for those who would like to see what motion in 4 dimensions would look like please go look at the video from 3Blue1Brown
called Visualizing quaternions (4d numbers) with stereographic projection
this bloke is an legend, i have the same knowledge as him ***happy noises***
What i like about halo is that it is very realistic. Even the ftl travel.
Another great video of technobabble; physics disguised by fiction's story telling.
Thank you.
Basically, wormhole tunnels. they twist the fabric like vortex, the fabric contracts and shrinks just like a water vortex. anything that travels within it travels much faster becaue the space fabric is compressed by the twisting of it, 1 mile of space, turns into 1 foot of space. its like getting a thread, and twisting it from both end, until it shrinks smaller and smaller. it shrinks because the threads tangle up more compact. thats how wormholes work essentially, but instead of strings, or water analogies, its with the fabric of space.
started getting into D&D ethereal plane like stuff in the later parts there
a lot of what was described there has an equivalent in the forgotten realms the "slipspace bubble" being akin to the famed "bag of holding" and similar artificial demiplane storage.
granted the ethereal plane is also used for "ethereal travel" in which you cross into the border ethereal at a space it shares with the plane you entered from, cross into the deep ethereal which is the space between spaces, then cross back into the border ethereal sharing a space with the location you want to be in then reenter at that space. depending on how good the traveler is at concentrating on the concepts of these spaces this can take between hours and seconds
for those who play D&D and didnt know about this it is the purpose of the "etherealness" spell or at least one of them.
The Marvel Cinematic Universe missed an opportunity for an extremely cool effect. A true tesseract would appear to twist, warp, turn inside-out, etc as different 3D slices of its 4D structure intersect with the 3 dimensions we perceive. Unfortunately, all we got was a glowing blue cube.
Travling through slipspace sounds like travling through the warp, just without the demons and insanity.
Sorry didn’t see this amazing video sooner can’t wait to get home with a pen and paper and take some notes on this amazing analysis so I can Meld it with my research on the topic thanks so much for all these great video content
4th dimensional objects are in every possible position obtainable in a given point in time all at once until observed upon in in which its most probable orientation is visible (to us anyway)
Welp, your thought experiment at the end made my brain hurt.
19:19
Grunt hand moves
Me: level barrel of gun at its head. Fire point blank twice. It's not going to move again
Still waiting to hear more about those other types of space, denial of locale, shuntspace, trick geodetics, natal void.....The Glow I get because cryptum but dammit, I wanna know more about these other things!
Seems like you covered the same things multiple times, otherwise, good work!
LOLS, LOOKS LIKE HE WENT INTO HE 4TH DIMENSION AND CAME BACK WHILE HE WAS DOING HIS NARRATION DATS WHY THAT HAPPENNED : D
Excellent physics explanations.
I find it interesting how the Covenant had the more advanced technology and hardware, but humans has the more advanced calculations and software, so when either gets ahold of the other, they suddenly have a huge advantage against the Galaxy as a whole.
The covenant was extremely advanced in some areas but they were stagnant. Their tech was basically reverse engineered forerunner tech courtesy of the hurogak/engineers.
The san'shyuum were dogmatic and there wasn't much progress in a lot of areas after a certain level was reached. In the books it's mentioned that they're slow to react. For example I think it was after John was on a covenant ship and explained the layout/security protocol to the UNSC it remained unchanged the entire war. While the unsc would have completely changed everything after there was a breach. At least that's what the books say.
Note: by default, in a topological space there is no distance function.
Depending on what separation axioms apply to a given topology, the topology may be metrizable, meaning a metric (generalized distance function) can be applied to the topology. At weakest we want a T2 separable, called Hausdorff, space. This is where given any two distinct points, you can put a bubble around each point such that the bubbles do not intersect.
However, some topologies do not even satisfy even T0 separability, such as a one point compactification of the number line. T0 separability means that given any two distinct points, you can put a bubble around one point such that the bubble does not include the other point. If a topology is not even T0 then there is no hope of metrizing the topology.
One key issue there at about 2:50, "Time" isn't thought to be a dimension, rather a part of the fabric of the universe.
Thank you master of slip space
Beautiful work, well done!
Does this have anything to do with the name "Truth and Reconcilliation" or is that just named quite literally?
Honestly we need to reclaim it back to the way we a species used to use it.
This changes how old Master Chief really is
Slipspace drives reminds of the hyperspace cores from Homeworld
Wheel of time traveling, scimming & "The Ways" (w/e the spelling is) are versions off slipspace.
This is such a good channel!!
Great video.
Looks to me like hiddenxperia and Halo follower better be careful with the new kid. You've definitely got me hooked. 👏👏🤘
5:34 radiation from the *schlipshpashe*
Hey dude, love the videos so far, I'm just curious if anyone else has any volume problems
I'll be honest, I dont think I've had anyone say anything specifically about volume problems. That being said, if there are, I will certainly look into it!
The slipspace reminds me of the old scifi show where their ftl is called slipstream
Fantastic stuff mate!
One of my favorite RUclipsrs likes you therefore I like you jkjk you have awesome content is the truth
Lol i loved the now go and rest your brain ending lol i need it
Your videos are fantastic. Would love if you were to invest in a better microphone to make your voice more robust but that comes with more views. Keep on keeping on!
This is your most interesting video.
Can slipspace be used to jump past the immediate area of effect of a halo ring activation essentially just popping up behind the wave of destruction where it had already been thus avoiding the effect of halo and surviving?
I think the halo effect transits through slipspace. It says on the wiki that the halos are an extension of slipspace tech.
I understood nearly 30% of this! I has the smarts!
Excellent work
This video does not have anywhere near as many likes and views as it deserves.
Are there any plans for videos on other pocket dimensions in the Halo universe? I'm really interested in the prospect of learning about these alien dimensions and how they affect normal space objects and organisms. Even better, is it possible for a species to live or even originate in Slipspace or the other dimensions?
i always thought that slipspace was just a technical name ingame for an openable wormhole for quick transport. O-O
Me, chillin, watching this video in my dark room
3:26: have you ever tried blindness?
Me: no…
3:26: would you like to?
It's the warp, clean after the halo rings were detonated
This kinda sciency stuff that I only understand like 25% of is why I love halo
I wonder if ships could arrive before they left if the distance is great enough without a break
Great Vid Many Thanks
Slip-space is just multidimensional Sudoku and chess for spaceships..... Change my mind
Understanding a multi-dimension concept isn’t actually all that difficult.
However! Survival and living in such a plane of existence with a physical, and mental, form not adapted to said dimensional plane is a much different story.
These subjects do not hurt my brain. It's listen to flat earthers that does
Funny enough slipspace is heavily derived from the theoretical physics around 11dimensional space and its properties.
Quality!
The problem is everybody's halo slipspace videos explain was slipspace is, I wanna know how the slipspace engines make portals and go into slipspace
If anyone read the book, "A Wrinkle in Time". Basically, a good summary of what Slipspace is. And do yourself a favor and read the book. Do not watch the movie.
