FTL Travel is the biggest turning point in Human history. It led to the meeting of new races, the creation of the coalition and the expansion of its borders. It led to technological advancement due to the meeting of these other races. FTL technology, though difficult and wordy to explain, in short allows a ship/vessel access to the hyperlane network.

A Hyperlane is essentially an interstellar highway, allowing a ship/vessel enter into hyperspace which allows tremendous speed in travel to a different point. These points are fixed and are noticeable by sensors and require particular drives. You cannot stop once you are in the hyerplane until you reach the next point, but while in the hyperlane itself you are generally in no danger -- the danger is what waits at the other side.
