==History==
Sometime late in his life Shaw and Fujikawa were at a beach, and while Fujikawa was reading a book Shaw said he would make a time machine. Though Fujikawa laughed it off as they were at a beach and said he should make something useful like a Daiquiri instead.<ref>'''[http://halostory.bungie.org/staten083106.html HBO - Joe Staten Interview - August 2006]'''</ref>

"The Shaw-Fujikawa Translight Engine became a reality in April 2291 due entirely to vision, perseverance, and dedication of these two pioneers in quantum engineering and applied theoretical physics. They have opened a path to the stars for all of us."
— Memorial plaque on Quito Space Tether.

Doctor Tobias Fleming Shaw[1] ScD, QeD, FRS, along with Doctor Wallace Fujikawa, was the co-creator of the Shaw-Fujikawa Translight Engine in 2291, a device that allowed humanity to reach locations beyond the Solar System through manipulation of Slipstream space.[2]

He held the title "Doctor of Science" and was renowned for his work in the field of quantum electrodynamics. He is supposedly the father and namesake of Shaw multivariate calculus, a form of astrogation input used by starship crews to calculate parameters for slipspace jumps.[3]

He was likely from the United Kingdom as he held the title of Fellow of the Royal Society, a distinction awarded to British and Irish scientists.[4]
