The U.S.S. Discovery Spore drive, is it complete nonsense or is there a scientific theory I’m unaware of?

    Much of the plant life on Earth is connected by a network of fungal mycelium that helps share resources. In Star Trek, that network of mycelium extends through the multiverse, connecting every planet in every universe. The spore drive allows the ship to travel along the network across all of spacetime instantly.

    Current scientific theories do not support the existence of multiversal fungi.

      The mycelial network also exists largely within subspace. So far, we have yet to discover whether subspace exists or not.
