| The [[Autobot]] ship ''[[Trion]]'' and [[Decepticon]] ship ''[[Torment]]'' were equipped with quantum jump drives. The former was shot down when it pursued a quantum jumping ''Torment'' straight into an ambush. {{storylink|All Hail Megatron issue 5|All Hail Megatron #5}}

| The first rule about interstellar travel is to never stand next to a quantum generator when it's about to flout the laws of physics. [[Ore]] broke this rule by standing too close to the ''[[Lost Light]]'''s engines when the ship initiated a quantum jump, and was fused to the generator as a result. {{storylink|Liars, A to D Part 2: Hangers On|Hangers On}} This caused one of the rear thrusters to explode and the ''Lost Light'' to quantum jump blindly halfway across the galaxy. {{storylink|Liars, A to D Part 1: How to Say Goodbye and Mean It|How to Say Goodbye and Mean It}}
