Inertial Damping Field

NotesImages
Universe : Prime Timeline
Name : Inertial Damping Field [1]

Inertial Damping Field, a field which permeates a spacecraft and prevents the occupants from feeling the effects of acceleration. IDF fields are almost perfect when counteracting forces from the ships own systems, but there is a degree of 'leakage' when attempting to compensate for external forces such as weapon impacts. [1]
