[Origin] Long Distance Escape Pods

I got the idea from figuring out Where Kaufmann went and how fast he got there. I discovered escape pods are horrifically slow from this.
 
Overall looks pretty good to me.

manuevering should be maneuvering

Should probably have "Standard Nomenclature" section
And a Dimensions section.

Summary

One item on the list was not satisfied and will hold up approval.
** No Damage Capacity listed. See Notes



Status: Pending

Notes
No entry for damage capacity is included in the submission. No other escape pod I was able to locate has a DC listed. I would normally overlook this lack due to prior precedent (the lack of DC on escape pods in general) however, given the nature of this submission, which is likely to be used in dangerous circumstances I feel that the DC is a necessary item to include.
