The Explorachron allows Victorian time travelers to manipulate the time stream for short periods. The direction ring shows the relative direction and the magnetic compass (if available) indicates the magnetic North and South.

"Commander Wakedale here. Any good Victorian time traveler knows how important it is to have several paths through the time stream. The Explorachron provides time manipulation as well as showing the time traveler the local magnetic direction (if available), orientation, longitude and latitude. How does it do this? The Explorachron uses "time and relative direction indicating systems" that were provided by a strange fellow that lived in a large blue box. This gives the time traveler the ability to freeze time and disrupt the local stream of time (time disruption is accomplished by passing the time traveler through all points in time, similar to an infinite improbability drive, but for time). Along with these features the Explorachron can also be used to set a reminder and can provide illumination (if available). If you only need time manipulation and orientation indication, try the free Explorachron Lite with slightly less functionality."
- Commander Montague Wakedale, Airship Corp retired.
