Eclipse Orbital Speeder (Civilian Spaceship)
The Eclipse is designed as rapid transport for executives, although a number have been bought by private enthusiasts. Ordinary operation consists of climbing to stratospheric or orbital altitudes to permit continuous acceleration with mid-point turnover, allowing for extremely rapid travel over planetary distances. The Eclipse is fully spaceworthy and can undertake interplanetary flight, in which case a steward is usually carried for the benefit of the passengers.
