@KenoshiAkai There's more about it in the prequal books, in particular about the origins of the Fold-Drive and of the thinking machines too

@HopeMonkey In the early books it was mentioned that it was a faster than light drive, but after the 1984 movie I think Frank Herbert retconned it so that the Guild ships folded space. He never did get into much detail about how space travel worked, the books focusing more on intrigue than technology.
