Message Torpedo
An robotic device used to send messages at FTL speeds.
It consists of a small warp generator, antimatter-fueled (for small size) power supply, navigation system and message memory. There may be a provision for carrying small (a few liters volume) cargo. The shape is a narrow cone with a rounded base, to best fit the generated warp field.
