Faster-than-light travel

From Tardis Wiki, the free Doctor Who reference

Faster-than-light travel was one method of travelling interstellar distances without resorting to relativistic travel or generation starships. One way to do so was by harnessing a quantum tunnel with an FTL factor of 36.7 recurring. Other, rarer methods include travelling via Time Vortex, a method which TARDISes use, and transmat systems.

Most advanced civilisations seemed to have developed faster-than-light travel at some point during their history. Humans had developed hyperspace technology by the 30th century. (NA: Original Sin)

Examples

Common means of faster-than-light travel involve passing a spacecraft through hyperspace, which was located outside of spacetime as Humans knew it (DW: The Stones of Blood). Other technologies included warp drive. (DW: The Girl in the Fireplace, Earthshock)

Mary arrived on Earth via a transportation device. Sarah Jane Smith's star poet friend of the same species arrived on Earth through unspecified means, though we can assume they used much of the same kind of technology. It may also be that since Mary arrived in 1812 and the poet left in 2008 that the species' technology had advanced.
