Unlike traditional [[Transwarp]] technology, which employs dimensional-transference, an Astro-Beam works on the quantum principle of artificially induced superposition. It allows one to collapse the waveform that represents the effected mass in a different location from where it started. The effect eventually inverts, usually after 48 hours. With a compensator, one can shift the quantum effect from one body of mass to another, as well as accelerate the quantum decay and force an instant reversion to the original location. {{storylink|Withered Hope}}

An Astro-Beam is a means of temporarily teleporting from one location to another.

Fiction

TransTech

Renegade GoBot Bug Bite brought an Astro-Beam with him on his trans-dimensional mission to find the cause of his universe's impending doom. When he and his compatriots accidentally found themselves on the Cybertron inhabited by TransTech, he surreptitiously used the device to enter Axiom Nexus undetected. He later traded the device for a black-ops pass enabling him to continue to his original destination unimpeded.

Unlike traditional Transwarp technology, which employs dimensional-transference, an Astro-Beam works on the quantum principle of artificially induced superposition. It allows one to collapse the waveform that represents the effected mass in a different location from where it started. The effect eventually inverts, usually after 48 hours. With a compensator, one can shift the quantum effect from one body of mass to another, as well as accelerate the quantum decay and force an instant reversion to the original location. Withered Hope

Notes

  • The Astro-Beam made its debut in the Challenge of the GoBots. The Renegade theft of the device touched off the events of the five-part pilot of that show, and it continued to feature prominently throughout. It functioned exactly as described, allowing a temporary teleport that reverted itself after forty-eight hours if not manually reversed sooner.
