In 2099, scientists discover that the light wave and all the frequencies that populate the known universe is just one type of waveform that allows energy to be conveyed from one end of the universe to the other. They find several different types of wavefront buried in the substructure of the universe. This substructure allows almost instantaneous transmission of energy from one of the universe to the other. The direction of the energy is not affected by gravity. It is discovered that not only do the signals convey information, they can also be used to map the universe in real time, without the limiting factor of the speed of light.
It is realised that travelling across space can be achieved with minimal energy and minimal cost if a mechanism can be found to convert one energy form to another non destructively. However this conversion of energy is far too difficult unless a way can be found to artificially create what nature does naturally.
Scientist find that their understanding of the nature of the atom has been misunderstood, as the atom is made up components that are inter-dimensional, and that the natural state of matter has been misunderstood. Further to this, the nature of mass and gravity have also been found to be misunderstood, as Einstein's equation E=MC^2 was found to be an approximation of the exact calculation depended on an exact knowledge of the ratio of visible (in phase) mass, to invisible (phased). The previous notion of matter and antimatter were found to be faulty considerations given that the existence of such particles was determined by the limitation of a "light-based" philosophy of the nature of the universe against a "phase-based" philosophy on which the universe was actually based.
Scientists had to rework their models of the universe to take into account the new sub-structural components of the matter, that now became obvious with the new techniques of observation that were needed to view this hidden universe in the light that everyone saw.
