The concept of hyperspace travel is based solely on the manipulation of naturally existing energies – like gravity and photonic emissions. Although seemingly simple in concept, the actual implementation of this concept requires massive levels of power and a thorough knowledge of miniaturization, which explains why civilizations take so many years of evolution to break out of the Pre-Hyperspace Phase.
The basic principle behind hyperspace centers around the creation of a massive concentrated burst of gravitronic energy, which warps space into multiple folds, thereby creating a gravitic slipstream. The second phase of hyperspace dynamics results in the high-focus emission of an intense stream of photons (special particles which have faster-than-light speed characteristics), which envelops the surface of the ship. The gravitic slipstream has an accelerating effect on the photon field, which results in the ship being propelled at FTL speeds. This photonic stream also enables the ship to exist in the slipstream…otherwise it would be torn apart by the intense gravitic forces.
The entry into, and exit from the gravitic slipstream is accompanied by an intense stream of light, due to the sudden creation/disappearance of the photonic field, and the momentary friction it creates against the normal plane of space. This stage is called the Phase-In and Phase-Out period of hyperspace travel.
Since the slipstream warps space near the ship, any object nearby would be affected by it and would interfere with the formation of the slipstream itself. This was what had triggered the catastrophic accident in the White Sands range, during the first hyperdrive test. That is why ships have to move away to a safe distance from nearby planets or other large heavenly bodies before it becomes safe to use the hyperdrive. It is also the same reason why ships automatically dropped into normal space when near each other.
As technology evolved, hyperdrives could generate stronger slipstreams and their advanced energy control systems allowed them to create photonic fields whose formations were designed to have a more efficient thrust ratio (by manipulating the placement of individual photons in the field). But the basic theory remained the same.
