A trans-reality comet is a comet with unique Quintessence-infused ore that enables it to pass between different Alternate Realities. King Alfor used a trans-reality comet to create each Lion of Voltron after it crashed into Planet Daibazaal.[1][2] A second comet is used to create Sincline.[3][4][5]
Known Properties[]
Ore[]
Two trans-reality comets are known to exist and have been seen as massive pieces of ore that are black in color and glow with blue Quintessence. They are so heavily infused with the substance that they are able to act as their own power source.[2] The ore of the comets is uniquely versatile and said to be able to engineer itself and create spacecraft that are virtually indestructible.[2][6] This ore allowed for the creation of the Voltron Lions, near-sapient robots that must bond with their Paladin and accept them to be piloted, as well as the creation of Sincline.[1][2][4]
Rifts[]
When a trans-reality comet collides with a celestial body such as a planet, it can cause a rift to open in its wake on the planet's surface, leading to the layer between realities where an immeasurable amount of Quintessence resides.[2] Over time, the presence of a rift will trigger a planet's slow collapse and destruction, evident from increasingly frequent earthquakes.[2] A comet can inexplicably create a rift in the void of space on its own as well, which will instantly kill any living creatures caught in the incident with the unfathomable amount of energy released, but may leave a spacecraft holding them intact, if caught within the rift.[3] These rifts radiate pure Quintessence.[3]
Spacecraft created from trans-reality comets can safely pass through rifts in realities without being destroyed by the spatial distortion and energy because of the nature of the ore used to build them.[3][2] Even if the rift is closed or lost, trans-reality spacecraft can return whence they came so long as they pinpoint the exact location of the rift.[3]

Trivia[]
- The origin of the comets and explanation for their trans-reality nature is unknown.
- The Fraunhofer Line of the comet matches that of Voltron and Sincline.[3][4]
- Haggar is able to detect when someone has had contact with a trans-reality comet by sensing its energy upon them.[6]
