Entry ramps, also called boarding ramps and landing ramps, were extendable planks used to enter and exit starships. Ramps were typically lowered and raised with hydraulic pistons, such as the central lifter. Designed for the ascent or descent of beings or objects, variations included passenger, pedestrian, docking, and loading ramps.
