    They have jump drives homie, when they start to escape they can jump back

    Also speed wouldn’t be an issue if the orbit is extremely extremely elliptical.

      Nah, this is 200 times escape velocity, there is no possible orbit at that speed, just careening out to another galaxy, floating endless in the galactic cluster, or leaving the cluster altogether.

      Any orbit would take millions of years anyway, so they can just cruse around, ingoring orbit altogether.

        There isn’t if you don’t have a jump drive. It’s it a natural orbit, no. It’s a highly modified orbit using technology we don’t not have and cannot fully understand even in the books the method is not fully explained.
