A starseed is typically spherical, but when it needs to change direction it unfolds itself into a large squarish Solar Sail with the four corners connected via strands to a small knob. Most of the internal organs are located in a cross-shaped swelling in the sail. The aliens known as Outsiders follow starseeds for reasons only they know. Pierson's Puppeteers have a technology called "starseed lure" that can attract nearby starseeds to a specific solar system. They used a starseed lure to influence the course of human/ Kzin warfare by causing an Outsider ship to visit a human colony world, allowing humanity to purchase hyperdrive technology. This technology allowed humanity to decimate the Kzinti in subsequent wars. |
