	Word of Heatwave's "trip" made the rounds of Cybertron, as [[Downshift (SG)\|Downshift]] commented to the rest of [[Remote Patrol Six]] that if the Decepticons could get a Stellar spanner working, the [[Autobot]]s wouldn't need a ship to get to Earth—they could just beam in, take whatever they wanted, then beam out again. {{storylink\|Do Over}}		Word of Heatwave's "trip" made the rounds of Cybertron, as [[Downshift (SG)\|Downshift]] commented to the rest of [[Remote Patrol Six]] that if the Decepticons could get a Stellar spanner working, the [[Autobot]]s wouldn't need a ship to get to Earth—they could just beam in, take whatever they wanted, then beam out again. {{storylink\|Do Over}}

	The Decepticon stellar spanner was completed and contact made between Earth and Cybertron. Once another spanner had been constructed on Cybertron, [[Shockwave (SG)\|Shockwave]] travelled to Earth as an ambassador, though a failure in the Earth-end spanner a short time later rendered the link inoperable until it could be recalibrated.

	At some later point the Decepticons were able to take control of Alpha Trion's stellar spanner from his disused laboratory. Two of their new allies, [[Nexus Prime]] and [[Aquarius (SG)\|Aquarius]], used it to embark on a journey to another universe, and the Decepticons destroyed it soon after to ensure it stayed out of the wrong hands. {{storylink\|Reunification: Part 6}}		At some later point the Decepticons were able to take control of Alpha Trion's stellar spanner from his disused laboratory.

	When the Autobots returned, {{storylink\|Transformers (2023) issue 11\|Transformers #11}} the fighting sent [[Devastator (G1)\|Devastator]] tumbling onto the feeder, causing Cybertron to start returning to its original orbit. With Cliffjumper having been tossed through the portal, Optimus charged after to rescue him only for Elita One to destroy Cybertron's side of the bridge, insisting that the Autobots needed their leader and citing that they could make use of Shockwave's ill-gotten energon. Unwilling to win that way, Optimus detonated the energon, severing the space bridge link between the two planets and sending him back to Earth. {{storylink\|Transformers (2023) issue 12\|Transformers #12}}		When the Autobots returned, {{storylink\|Transformers (2023) issue 11\|Transformers #11}} the fighting sent [[Devastator (G1)\|Devastator]] tumbling onto the feeder, causing Cybertron to start returning to its original orbit.

			Seeking to bring Optimus back to Cybertron, Elita One ordered the space bridge salvaged only to be informed that the fuel costs meant only one Autobot could be sent through. {{storylink\|Transformers (2023) issue 21\|Transformers #21}} Seeking to put the newly forged [[Shreadhead]]'s power to use on Cybertron, Elita ordered Cliffjumper through, only for the minibot to shove Shreadhead through the space bridge, overloading it. {{storylink\|Transformers (2023) issue 22\|Transformers #22}} Still committed to her goal, Elita sent Cliffjumper to recover space bridge parts from Decepticon territory, {{storylink\|Transformers (2023) issue 26\|Transformers #26}}

Space bridges are used to travel around the galaxy. They were large, forked structures and worked by generating a sphere of transwarp energy between the two prongs. Space bridges were a point-to-point technology, needing a receiving code on the other side to lock onto. {{storylink\|A Bridge Too Close, Part II}}

	The technology is exclusively Autobot, and gave them a major strategic advantage over the Decepticons: thanks to the bridges, the Decepticon expansion was halted. {{storylink\|Transformers Animated: The AllSpark Almanac II\|The AllSpark Almanac II}} Space bridges were ubiquitous in post-War Autobot society, their schematics being accessible even to lowly [[energon farm]]ers who wished to study the technology. {{storylink\|A Bridge Too Close, Part II}}		The technology is exclusively Autobot, and gave them a major strategic advantage over the Decepticons: thanks to the bridges, the Decepticon expansion during the [[Great War (Animated)\|Great War]] was halted. {{storylink\|Transformers Animated: The AllSpark Almanac II\|The AllSpark Almanac II}} Space bridges were ubiquitous in post-War Autobot society, their schematics being accessible even to lowly [[energon farm]]ers who wished to study the technology. {{storylink\|A Bridge Too Close, Part II}} In the Autobot capital of [[Iacon (polity)\|Iacon]], the [[Autobot Transportation Guild]] operated the [[Emirate Xaaron Spacebridge Nexus]], coordinating transport across [[Milky Way\|the galaxy]]. {{storylink\|Transformers Animated: The AllSpark Almanac II\|The AllSpark Almanac II}}

	~~The~~ [[AllSpark]] was thrown into ~~one~~ to keep it out of Decepticon hands. [[Optimus Prime (Animated)\|Optimus Prime]] and his [[Bumblebee (Animated)\|small]] [[Bulkhead (Animated)\|band]] [[Prowl (Animated)\|of]] [[Ratchet (Animated)\|Autobots]] were ~~put~~ in ~~charge~~ of ~~repairing~~ space ~~bridges~~. {{storylink\|Transform and Roll Out}}		During the course of the conflict, the [[AllSpark]] was thrown into a space bridge to keep it out of Decepticon hands, winding up in the [[Azazel asteroid belt]]. After the war, [[Optimus Prime (Animated)\|Optimus Prime]] and his [[Bumblebee (Animated)\|small]] [[Bulkhead (Animated)\|band]] [[Prowl (Animated)\|of]] [[Ratchet (Animated)\|Autobots]] were tasked with repairing space bridges. When their duties brought them to Azazel, they discovered the AllSpark at the base of the space bridge in the asteroid belt. Though Ratchet quickly proposed tossing the AllSpark back through the space bridge, the AllSpark's energy signature caught the attention of the ''[[Nemesis (Animated)\|Nemesis]]''. Taking the AllSpark aboard [[Omega Supreme (Animated)\|their ship]], the Autobots made for the space bridge. The chaos of the battle when [[Megatron (Animated)\|Megatron]] boarded the Autobot craft activated the AllSpark which activated the space bridge and transported the Autobot ship to [[Earth]]. {{storylink\|Transform and Roll Out}}

	[[Megatron (Animated)\|Megatron]] ~~planned~~ to ~~use some schematics~~ to ~~build his own~~, allowing him to [[unspace\|transwarp]] to Cybertron and strike it without warning. He kidnapped [[Isaac Sumdac (Animated)\|Isaac Sumdac]] to ~~design it~~ {{storylink\|The Elite Guard}} ~~and used~~ [[~~Mixmaster (Animated)\|Mixmaster~~]] ~~and~~ [[~~Scrapper (Animated)\|Scrapper~~]] ~~to build it, but it wasn't enough~~. ~~With [[Bulkhead (Animated)\|some additional help]] he completed it,~~ {{storylink\|~~A Bridge Too Close, Part I~~}} but ~~as often is the case with Decepticon plans, it didn't end well~~. {{storylink\|~~A Bridge Too Close, Part II~~}}		50 stellar cycles later, [[Megatron (Animated)\|Megatron]] managed to download a partial schematic of a space bridge from the Autobot ship, with which to hoped to reverse engineer the technology, allowing him [[unspace\|transwarp]] to Cybertron and strike it from within without warning. To that end, he kidnapped [[Isaac Sumdac (Animated)\|Isaac Sumdac]] to study the schematics. {{storylink\|The Elite Guard}} Off in space meanwhile, rumours of Megatron's survival had emboldened the scattered Decepticon cells, leading to the [[Decepticon Uprisings]]. At least one space bridge was destroyed before Megatron was able to acquire a [[tachyon transmitter]] and begin coordinating these assaults. {{storylink\|Mission Accomplished}} Megatron ordered his forces to capture every space bridge they could but to maintain a holding action until he reached Cybertron. {{storylink\|TransWarped}}

	~~During the~~ [[~~Decepticon Uprisings~~]]~~, the Decepticons went after every space bridge on the periphery in a simultaneous assault.~~ [[~~Team Chaar~~]] ~~were~~ the ~~first squad~~ to ~~capture~~ [[~~Space bridge 687-030~~\|~~a bridge~~]]~~, but couldn't arrive at the~~ [[~~Emirate Xaaron Spacebridge Nexus~~\|~~space bridge nexus~~]] on Cybertron ~~as Shockwave~~, ~~who held~~ the ~~access codes at~~ the ~~nexus~~, was ~~waiting for~~ Megatron's ~~signal to begin~~ the ~~attack~~. ~~The network was later shut down at~~ the ~~order of~~ the ~~[[Elite Guard\|Cybertron Elite Guard]] to prevent Decepticons from transwarping onto Cybertron~~. {{storylink\|~~TransWarped~~}}		Megatron later recruited [[Mixmaster (Animated)\|Mixmaster]] and [[Scrapper (Animated)\|Scrapper]] to finish his space bridge, {{storylink\|Rise of the Constructicons}} but the device failed to start. After [[Shockwave (Animated)\|Shockwave]] found that [[Bulkhead (Animated)\|Bulkhead]] was Cybertron's top space bridge expert, Megatron abducted the Autobot and forced him to complete the bridge. {{storylink\|A Bridge Too Close, Part I}} Though functional, the single AllSpark fragment Megatron was using to power it proved insufficient. Instead, Megatron inserted [[Starscream (Animated)\|Starscream]]'s severed head, sustained by another AllSpark fragment, into the space bridge, overloading it. After Megatron had been consumed by the singularity, Omega Supreme sacrificially absorbed the excess transwarp energy as the space bridge imploded. {{storylink\|A Bridge Too Close, Part II}}

	[[Blackarachnia (Animated)\|Blackarachnia]] used components from a transwarp generator in order to create a teleportation pod which she used to transform [[Wasp]] into a [[Technorganic]] being; however, after its use, the chamber exploded. {{storylink\|Predacons Rising (Animated)\|Predacons Rising}} Bulkhead along with Isaac Sumdac later attempted to work together in making a space bridge on Earth for the Autobots but faced many arguments on how to calibrate the equipment. Luckily, Sari Sumdac managed to activate the system which was later used to transport Optimus Prime onto the [[Sigma Supreme\|Elite Guard flagship]] which had been taken over by the former Decepticon prisoners. {{storylink\|Decepticon Air}}		During the [[Decepticon Uprisings]], the Decepticons went after every space bridge on the periphery in a simultaneous assault. [[Team Chaar]] were the first squad to capture [[Space bridge 687-030\|a bridge]], but couldn't arrive at the [[Emirate Xaaron Spacebridge Nexus\|space bridge nexus]] on Cybertron as Shockwave, who held the access codes at the nexus, was waiting for Megatron's signal to begin the attack. The network was later shut down at the order of the [[Elite Guard\|Cybertron Elite Guard]] to prevent Decepticons from transwarping onto Cybertron. Warped to the same region of space as Omega Supreme had been, Megatron discovered that the giant Autobot had absorbed enough transwarp energy to function as his own space bridge. Megatron attempted to salvage his plans and use Omega to reach Cybertron before Bumblebee stuck a [[plasma dynamic thruster]] onto the giant, causing him to transwarp randomly across the galaxy. {{storylink\|TransWarped}}

			[[Blackarachnia (Animated)\|Blackarachnia]] used components from a transwarp generator in order to create a teleportation pod which she used to transform [[Wasp]] into a [[Technorganic]] being; however, after its use, the chamber exploded. {{storylink\|Predacons Rising (Animated)\|Predacons Rising}} Bulkhead along with Isaac Sumdac later attempted to work together in making a space bridge on Earth for the Autobots, {{storylink\|Three's a Crowd (episode)\|Three's a Crowd}} but faced many arguments on how to calibrate the equipment. Luckily, Sari Sumdac managed to activate the system which was later used to transport Optimus Prime onto the [[Sigma Supreme\|Elite Guard flagship]] which had been taken over by the former Decepticon prisoners. {{storylink\|Decepticon Air}}

			When the bridge located Omega, it warped [[Ratchet (Animated)\|Ratchet]] and [[Carmine Fanzone]] to Iacon. After that adventure, the [[Autobot High Council]] allowed Ratchet and Fanzone passage back to Earth via space bridge. Since Ratchet had taken the [[Magnus Hammer]] with him, [[Jazz (Animated)\|Jazz]] took the chance to jump through the bridge after them to join the Earth team after chaffing under [[Sentinel Prime (Animated)\|Sentinel Prime]]'s increasingly draconian methods. {{storylink\|This Is Why I Hate Machines}}

			When the [[Lugnut Supreme]]s attacked [[Detroit]], the Autobots space bridged to Earth's [[Moon (moon)\|moon]], managing to recover [[Arcee (Animated)\|Arcee]] and reboot Omega Supreme. {{storylink\|Endgame, Part II}}

Instead, Megatron inserted [[Starscream (Animated)\|Starscream]]'s severed head, sustained by another AllSpark fragment, into the space bridge, overloading it. After Megatron had been consumed by the singularity, Omega Supreme sacrificially absorbed the excess transwarp energy as the space bridge imploded. {{storylink\|A Bridge Too Close, Part II}}

[[Team Chaar]] were the first squad to capture [[Space bridge 687-030\|a bridge]], but couldn't arrive at the [[Emirate Xaaron Spacebridge Nexus\|space bridge nexus]] on Cybertron as Shockwave, who held the access codes at the nexus, was waiting for Megatron's signal to begin the attack. The network was later shut down at the order of the [[Elite Guard\|Cybertron Elite Guard]] to prevent Decepticons from transwarping onto Cybertron. Warped to the same region of space as Omega Supreme had been, Megatron discovered that the giant Autobot had absorbed enough transwarp energy to function as his own space bridge. Megatron attempted to salvage his plans and use Omega to reach Cybertron before Bumblebee stuck a [[plasma dynamic thruster]] onto the giant, causing him to transwarp randomly across the galaxy. {{storylink\|TransWarped}}

			When the bridge located Omega, it warped [[Ratchet (Animated)\|Ratchet]] and [[Carmine Fanzone]] to Iacon. After that adventure, the [[Autobot High Council]] allowed Ratchet and Fanzone passage back to Earth via space bridge. Since Ratchet had taken the [[Magnus Hammer]] with him, [[Jazz (Animated)\|Jazz]] took the chance to jump through the bridge after them to join the Earth team after chaffing under [[Sentinel Prime (Animated)\|Sentinel Prime]]'s increasingly draconian methods. {{storylink\|This Is Why I Hate Machines}}

	Dreadwing later gave the [[Forge of Solus Prime]] to the Autobots, which Optimus used to upgrade their GroundBridge into a space bridge, allowing them access to Cybertron when the time came for the battle over the [[Omega Lock]]. Megatron also ventured there, and was joined by Starscream, Knock Out, and Soundwave who had captured the Autobots' human allies. {{storylink\|Regeneration (Prime)\|Regeneration}} Using the humans as leverage, the Decepticons reclaimed the [[Omega Key]]s and the Omega Lock. After testing the latter's power on a nearby ruin, Megatron ordered a space bridge opened above the Lock so its power could be used to [[cyberforming\|cyberform]] the Earth. Using the [[Star Saber (~~Prima~~)\|Star Saber]], Optimus destroyed the Omega Lock, the explosion collapsing the Decepticon space bridge. His team then retreated back to Earth, only to be promptly attacked by a vicious Decepticon assault. When it was clear the battle was lost, Optimus evacuated Team Prime, scattering them across the United States while he remained behind to destroy the base's space bridge. It was all for naught, as the ''Nemesis'' opened fire on the base, destroying their space bridge. {{storylink\|Darkest Hour (episode)\|Darkest Hour}}		Dreadwing later gave the [[Forge of Solus Prime]] to the Autobots, which Optimus used to upgrade their GroundBridge into a space bridge, allowing them access to Cybertron when the time came for the battle over the [[Omega Lock]].
