Wont be long before we hear something like

"Captain's Log, Suplemental: We are proceeding at maximum warp to Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry to pick up our new Chief Magical Officer, Lieutenant Harry Potter"

Wouldnt suprise me if there was already fanfic of that.
What does defeat mean to you?

Nothing it will never come. Death before defeat. I don’t bend or break. I end, if I meet a foe capable of it. Victory is in forcing the opponent to back down. I do not. There is no defeat.

He could stand on the bridge waving his wand "Warpious Speedoes". After that you wouldn't even need to try and explain things anymore. He could stand there, looking at the viewscreen. wand pointed forward, and shout " QUANTUMUS". There now, everything explained.

I always thought the aliens replaced the M/AM fuel for faster flight, and then the Equinox would revert to normal fuel when it ran out and needed to summon more.

Possible. What kind of reactor/engine would run on dead trans-dimensional aliens? How many mpc* would it get?

*mpc = "miles per corpse"

Enough that it would take dozens to get all the way home, IIRC. Hence, the magnitude of the crime Ransom committed was great.

... though he'd already crossed the "line" at the first corpse, of course.

Well, they were said to be giving off some sort of energy I think. And I know Ransom stated that it would take I think 63 more aliens to get home or something. If you could figure out about how far away from home they were I'm sure you could come up with fuel mileage.
