You can now go outside the ship. Suit lockers in the Nova's airlocks hold space suits, patch kits and thruster packs: wear a suit, seal it, cycle the airlock out, and you're in hard vacuum beside the hull.
Breathing is real everywhere now: bad air suffocates, vacuum on bare skin is deadly in seconds, and dropping pressure too fast gives you the bends (prebreathe in a sealed suit first).
Outside there's no weight and no sound (talk goes over your suit radio). Hold handrails, walk with magnetic boots, clip a tether, or fly with a thruster pack. Drift too far and you're lost in space until you steer back.
Fighting out there follows free-fall rules: unbraced fighters are weak, and every blow or shot pushes you away. Hits can hole your suit; patch it fast. Space radiation and micrometeoroids add up.
