Hyperspace

Hyperspace (also known as Hyperstream space) was a niex concept, eventually passed on to the Forerunners. Hyperspace is best described as a coagulation of the sum of all knowledge in the fields of quantum physics, the new-string theory, and the notion of extra-dimensional space. A basic understanding in the usage of neural physics is heavily attributed to the theory's general application in the physical universe.
Although the specifics have been kept classified by the niex, the secret to performing hyperspace jumps was sometimes passed down through a galaxy's mantle keeping lineage, as trusts grew. Such is referred to as hyperdrive. Intergalactic "ferries" connected the Niex with their allied species, and were capable of being deactivated at any time that an alliance was dropped, in order to avoid unnecessary conflict.
==Theory==
From an extra-dimensional perspective, any two points in the universe, however distant, can be viewed and interacted with instantaneously. Although most three-dimensional beings were incapable of perceiving the laws of extra-dimensional space, mental evolution had eventually enabled the niex to comprehend such laws. As non-living physical objects are existent in all dimensions, specialized Niex AI were also capable of comprehending these laws. By commanding advanced engine systems to emit an infinitely powerful sort of reverse-tractor beam through hyperspace, gripping a random string somewhere in a specified region of space. In this manner, an engine and any attached forms of matter could be transported anywhere in existence, and possibly beyond.
With direct relation to how warp space is up to ten folded dimensions, and slipspace is composed eleven folded dimensions, hyperspace is the compact folding of the maximum number of dimensions (whatever that number may be) as a method of FTL travel and storage space.
