===Travelling to the Asteroid===

Although orbiting around [[Calypso]] the asteroid space resort (as well as [[Crystal Palace Space Station]]) is technically dealt with like a planet of its own. This means:
* [[Storage Facility|Storage Facilities]] are seperated. You cannot access items you have put in a Storage Facility on [[Crystal Palace Space Station|Crystal Palace]] or any other planet like [[ROCKtropia]]. Keep this in mind before you go to CND.
* There are transportation fees if you retrieve items from [[Auction System|Auction]] that have been placed on auction on [[Crystal Palace Space Station|Crystal Palace]] or any other planets. The other way round someone not on CND retrieving an item from auction that has been put on auction on CND has to pay a fee too.
* You cannot easily teleport to Club NEVERDIE or back from CND.<br />

Pre-[[10.0|VU 10.0]] travelling to CND was only possible by spaceships. Players owning [[Hangar|hangars]] offered their service to fly other players between CND and [[Calypso]] for fees. Usually you met those 'pilots' in [[Twin Peaks]] and a common fare was 20 PED one way. A spaceship had 4 seats for travellers and started and landed from its hangar planet-side and the docking stations on CND. After VU 10.0 the [[Piloting|piloting system]] has not been re-implemented yet but is expected to be back "before the end of the year."(''to-do:ref'')<br />

The interim solution replacing spacetravel is plain teleporting. Every [[Calypso_Teleporters|teleporter]] in Entropia Universe supports this option. Depending on where from or to you want to teleport there are different teleportation fees.

With the upcoming implementation of the [[Vehicles|Vehicle System]] we might see spacetravel by manually controlled spaceships (threatend by [[Space Pirates]]). There are several statements by EU officials supporting this assumption(''to-do: ref'') and also flying vehicles are a feature of [[wikipedia:CryEngine_2|CryEngine 2]] - Entropia Universe's [[wikipedia:Game_engine|game engine]].<ref>[http://www.crytek.com/fileadmin/user_upload/cryengine2/CryENGINE2Features.pdf CryENGINE 2 Features Document], Vehicle Editor on page 13.</ref>
