Mobile Suit Gundam SEED C.E. 73 Δ Astray
From the The Gundam Wiki, the ultimate guide to Gundam
Mobile Suit Gundam SEED C.E. 73 Δ Astray (pronounced "Delta Astray") is a collection of gaiden (side stories) set in the Cosmic Era of Mobile Suit Gundam SEED Destiny, and is a follow-up to Mobile Suit Gundam SEED Destiny Astray. It will also tie in with the Original Net Animation side story Mobile Suit Gundam SEED C.E. 73: Stargazer.
Overview
Δ Astray will follow a team dispatched from Mars to Earth for an as yet unrevealed purpose. The team is led by Agnes Brahe, a 16 year old Coordinator. The other characters currently identified are Nahe Herschel, a 19 year old Coordinator, and Diego Lowell, a 16 year old of unspecified genetic type. Lowell came to Earth ahead of the rest of the team, aboard Lowe Guele's ship ReHOME, and thus is likely the previously unidentified Martian who stole the Astray Red Frame late in Destiny Astray.
The title mobile suit, the GSF-YAM01 Δ Astray (Delta Astray), utilizes a propulsion system called "Voiture Lumiere", which appears to be similar to the ZGMF-X42S Destiny's "Wings of Light". The Voiture Lumiere is used to capture solar wind with its light particles and convert it into a propelling force, allowing the mobile suit to accelerate indefinitely.
After the Δ Astray became heavily damaged, a new suit called the ∇ Astray (Turn Delta Astray) was introduced as the new title suit. Like the Δ Astray, the ∇ Astray utilizes the Voiture Lumiere technology.
