OverviewThe Stellar Diver That Would provides a relatively easy and straight-forward mathematical treatment of high performance, single pass quasar and stellar diver light sailing craft. The reader unfamiliar with the subject can feel at ease by reading the book at a leisurely pace because of the relatively short length of the text. Numerous step by step mathematical arguments are presented affirming the plausibility of natural light-sail craft that can approach the speed of light very closely. A broad exemplar range of quasar power outputs and stellar classes is analyzed. Needless to say, the light-sail craft conjectured herein can in principle accelerate to almost the speed of light in a fairly brief time period where very strong time dilations can be manifested. The ability of such craft to approach near light-speed in a timely manner requires only that a very small fraction of the quasar or stellar radiation need be intercepted by the sails. Specific examples of super-materials already present in laboratory settings as well as much more capable and exotic materials yet to be invented are provided. Such materials will no doubt be required for the sails and spacecraft to survive close approach to the powerful luminaries from which the propulsive effects are generated. Enjoy the read!
