	In addition to the fusion reactors which form the impulse engines, most ships carry another set of reactors simply to generate power. Each additional fusion reactor occupies 3 SUs. The crew holds auxiliary power in reserve for use in emergency or crisis situations, rather than using it at all times. Most ships have at least one auxiliary power generator for every 4 points of Size~~. Before [[2033]], fission reactors were used~~.		In addition to the fusion reactors which form the impulse engines, most ships carry another set of reactors simply to generate power. Each additional fusion reactor occupies 3 SUs and generates 5 points of Power per round. The crew holds auxiliary power in reserve for use in emergency or crisis situations, rather than using it at all times. Most ships have at least one auxiliary power generator for every 4 points of Size.

	A crew can use one of a ship’s auxiliary power reactors to replace damaged or spent reactors in the impulse engines. This takes an hour and requires a [[Skills#Skill_Test\|Routine Crew Skill Test]].		A crew can use one of a ship’s auxiliary power reactors to replace damaged or spent reactors in the impulse engines.
