Subspace is an integral part of the space-time continuum, distinct, yet coexistant with normal space. Subspace has an infinite number of domains. Geordi La Forge compared it with "...a huge honeycomb with an infinite number of cells". (TNG: "Schisms")
Tetryon particles are a form of subatomic particle which can only exist naturally in subspace. If they are released into normal space, they exhibit erratic properties. This can only occur when the fabric of subspace comes into contact with normal space in some manner.
- Exactly what subspace is has never been revealed on screen, though many theories, both fan-based and scientific, have been put forward. Explaining Subspace would be hard, since it is used as a solution and cause of various problems throughout the series.
