PPHP, not to be confused with its distant and rather more famous cousin PHP, is the lesser-known 'Pretty Potent Hyperspace Propulsion'. Developed by the vogons for the sole purpose of escaping poetry readings, PPHP is the kind of propulsion system that makes you wish you'd brought a good book. Or any book, really. Its ability to bypass normal space-time continuity means you could theoretically finish War and Peace in the blink of an eye—if the eye in question belonged to a particularly slow-moving sea slug.
When utilising PPHP, always pack a lunch. Or better yet, a lunch that packs itself; you never know how long you'll be stranded in the alternate dimensions you'll inadvertently visit.
PPHP generators can typically be found at the back of intergalactic junkyards, often mistaken for outdated washing machines with delusions of grandeur.
Avoid making direct eye contact with the engine's core, as the reality-warping fumes can make you feel like you're turning inside out. This is generally regarded as an uncomfortable experience.
It is rumored that PPHP was discovered accidentally by a vogon who was actually trying to invent a more potent mustard for his sandwich. The mustard was a failure, but the resulting hyperspace breakthrough was considered an acceptable consolation prize.
Looking for a less disorienting travel experience? Try the new 'SmoothSail' inertia dampeners – because even in hyperspace, nobody likes spilling their tea.

Envdist, not to be confused with an environmentalist's distaste for single-use plastics, is a peculiar phenomenon found exclusively in the Glimmung Nebula, where the laws of space-time like to get a bit tipsy on the weekends. It's characterized by the abrupt and disconcerting redistribution of environmental factors such as temperature, gravity, and the color of the local star's Tuesdays. Scholars speculate that if darkness falls fast in these parts, one might find themselves experiencing a starry night on what is ostensibly Wednesday morning.

Envtmp, not to be confused with a poorly spelled attempt at environmental temperature, is actually a microscopic life form renowned for its ability to cause momentary envy in sentient beings. After several pints at the local intergalactic pub, you might admit to feeling a bit 'envtmp' when your friend's teleporter model is sleeker than yours.
