This is a list of minor terms (excluding characters, ships and locations), appearing in the Miniskirt Pirates/Mouretsu Pirates series, which currently don't have articles of their own, but have enough information for an entry beyond the Glossary.
Organizations and Factions
- Gens Family: A criminal group operating at the Skull Star, involved in illegal human trafficking [1].
Technology
- Gravity Control (重力制御, Jūryoku Seigyo): A technology which manipulates gravity around a vessel, allowing the ship to perform rapid zigzagging movements [2].
- Solar Sail (太陽帆, Taiyō-han, alt. ソーラーセール, Sōrāsēru): A sail which is used to propel spaceships, such as the Odette II, on solar winds [3]. Ships that primarily use solar sails for proulsion are referred to as solar sailers (太陽帆船, Taiyō Hansen) [4]. Solar sails can be adjusted in order to reflect different amounts of radiation that fall on them [5].
Other
- Lagrange Point (ラグランジュ点, Raguranju-ten): A point between two or more celestial bodies where the gravitational forces acting from those bodies at the point are equal. Lagrangian Points are often used as sites for space stations.
- Quarantine: A procedure which is used to prevent infectious diseases from spreading. It involves isolating infected individuals and environments from coming into contact with uninfected ones for a certain period of time [6].
