'''Doctor Tobias Fleming Shaw''',<ref>[http://halo.bungie.net/News/content.aspx?type=topnews&cid=13824 Bungie Weekly Update ''05.23.08'']</ref> '''ScD, QeD, FRS''', along with [[Wallace Fujikawa|Doctor Wallace Fujikawa]], was the co-creator of the [[Shaw-Fujikawa Translight Engine]] in [[2291]], a device that allowed [[human]]ity to reach locations beyond the [[Sol system]] through manipulation of [[slipstream space]].<ref>'''Halo: Contact Harvest''', ''page 24''</ref>
Doctor '''Tobias Fleming Shaw'''<ref>[http://www.bungie.net/News/content.aspx?type=topnews&cid=13824 [[Bungie]] Weekly Update for May 23rd, 2008]</ref> was a co-creator of the [[Shaw-Fujikawa Translight Engine]] in [[2291]], along with Doctor [[Wallace Fujikawa]], the first device that allowed all of [[humanity]] to reach beyond their solar system.<ref>''[[Halo: Contact Harvest]]''</ref>


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.<ref>'''Halo: Evolutions''', ''"[[The Impossible Life and the Possible Death of Preston J. Cole]]'', ''page 423''</ref>
==Trivia==
 
*In a recent [[Bungie]] update, there is a shrine devoted to [[Wallace Fujikawa]] and Shaw on [[Moonbase Alpha]], now called Orbital, making it plausible as it is a [[UNSC]] Research Facility.
He was likely from the United Kingdom as he held the title of [[wikipedia:Fellow of the Royal Society#Fellowship|Fellow of the Royal Society]], a distinction awarded to British and Irish scientists.<ref>[[Shaw's commemorative plaque]]</ref>
