Starflow

Starflow is a fictional concept, often appearing in science fiction narratives, that describes a hypothesized flow or movement of cosmic energy or particles throughout the universe. The term itself suggests a continuous, perhaps unobservable, stream that connects celestial bodies or influences the fabric of space-time. It is not a recognized scientific phenomenon in current astrophysics.

In fictional contexts, starflow can be depicted in various ways. It might be the source of a ship's propulsion system, enabling faster-than-light travel by tapping into this universal current. Alternatively, it could be a medium through which consciousness travels, or a subtle force that dictates the destiny of stars and galaxies. The exact nature and properties of starflow vary greatly depending on the specific story and its creator's imagination.

The concept often serves as a narrative device to explain phenomena that are beyond current scientific understanding or to introduce elements of magic or advanced technology within a fictional universe. It allows for plot developments related to exploration, energy acquisition, or mystical connections between distant points in space. While purely speculative, the idea of a pervasive cosmic flow has resonated with audiences, adding a layer of wonder and mystery to many science fiction works.
