Tom agreed, "I can deliver on the thruster part. It isn't going to be anything fancy, but manipulating the impulse driver coils leaves no thermal signature like a normal maneuvering thruster does. I can also use small gas jets to help adjust attitude as we move. We're going to be too far away for them to detect the density of the gas around us. Remember that their sensors are not as high of resolution as ours are, they would only be able to detect that at much closer range and would need to be looking for it with a tight beam scan. If they're looking elsewhere, we might be able to remain undetected, at least for a while."
