They can `MANIPULATE GRAVITY` for crying out loud (literally). Also thanks. I really lost that beginning of the first episode.

<p>The lunar hypergate that was destroyed 15 years ago during Heaven's Fall was said to strand the Vers Knights on the Earth Orbit.</p>

We found out right at the beginning of episode 1 (around 0:22) that Asseylum herself left Vers just two months before the start of the show, at which point she is in Earth orbit (in Cruhteo's castle). Also, in episode 21, we see that Klancain (Cruhteo Jr.) has come from Vers to meet Slaine.

So transit from Earth-vicinity to Mars without the Hypergate surely must be *possible*, but this of course says nothing about how prevalent it is.

I suppose this also does tells us one more thing - the fastest mode of transit from Mars to Earth orbit must take somewhere under two months, which is considerably faster than all currently proposed ways of getting people to Mars.
