Fazore

Fazore is a term used primarily in speculative fiction and in educational exercises as a placeholder for a hypothetical substance or energy source. It has no established existence in real-world science.

In fiction, fazore is often described as a high-energy mineral or field that powers advanced technology. Its exact properties vary by author, but common attributes include high energy density, stability under a range of conditions, and accessibility constraints such as difficult mining, refining, or transport. Fazore-rich worlds frequently feature political or economic tension centered on control of fazore deposits, and the substance may be depicted as difficult to handle due to volatility or radiative side effects. The concept serves as a narrative device to explore resource scarcity, technology dependence, and environmental risk.

In educational and theoretical contexts, fazore is used as a thought experiment to discuss energy density, logistics, and sustainability. It provides a neutral stand-in that allows students and researchers to model trade-offs without committing to a real material.

Origin and usage: Fazore appears in late-20th-century science fiction and related classroom materials as a coined term. Because it is not standardized, its definition varies with context and author.
