Overview

Imagine a cosmic backdrop scene amidst a future conical light-sail style starship being piloted by a father of several kids. Further imagine that the father and his entire family are plying the depths of the galaxy in his astrodynamically streamlined and shielded starship. Imagine that the starship resembles a Christmas tree with light at night, except that the spacecraft has beam emissions as a propulsive mechanism for energy initially collected from the interstellar medium. Perhaps such a setting can take place in a future era of everlasting peace. In such an era, every day can be like Christmas, all the while the galaxy and beyond teeams with starships of all types and classes, just one of which is a common model of high gamma factor capable light sail ship. Such a starship meant for a family may conceivably have running lights for enabling distant recognition of the starship for safety purposes. This scenario and many other related scenarios I am sure can come about in the centuries, millennia, and eons to follow. Imagine that! Every day like Christmas on a starship! This book is an advanced mathematical treatment of how such craft may operate. The cover image photograph of an attractive female amidst the background of sun-light symbolizes the beauty and spirituality of the age to come when such craft can eventually be designed, assembled, and flown. Enjoy the read!
