OverviewThis is the first volume of a series of books on so-called Stellar Accelerator Spacecraft and presenting specific exemplar computations for plausible spacecraft acceleration thermodynamics. Accordingly, the spacecraft would use optical power input from the Sun in a close revolving motion to accelerate to velocities very close to the speed of light. Upon reaching terminal velocity, the spacecraft would disengage a thrust vectoring mechanism and fly off at extremely relativistic velocities. Methods of g-force neutralization are assumed as is the future development of requisite materials that are sufficiently strong and refractory to handle the extremely blue-shifted sun-light.
