I’ve watched all the YouTube videos and tiktoks about the spice and the guild navigators… basically they’re what exists instead of decision making computers.
But what do they actually do to operate the ship? Like they looked and saw some shit and now they have to do something about it.
Does the navigator have buttons and levers to configure the drive? Do they just speak words to some sort of helmsman about how to steer? Do they write out instructions? Is there some sort of telepathy or telekinesis the navigator does with the hardware?
Whenever I Google it I just find articles and videos about spice. What about SOP?
I don’t think it’s ever really explained. because if these guys can fold space like that, you shouldn’t even really need spaceships. that is, if they’re creating some sort of finite and bubble around them that travels through the fold, as opposed to bringing things through that they’re touching or something. but I still don’t understand why those ships would ever need to leave atmosphere
Right but every time it’s explained all that’s said is that the navigators have presence. They can see the future and make decisions and then use tools (the holtzman drive) to do something. Bummer they didn’t talk more about this. Do we even get to see a navigator in action (haven’t watched the movies yet)
