OverviewThis book includes an indepth but incomplete roster list of various classes of Tantalum-Hafnium-Carbide-based composite materials intented for intense light source reflection and thermal insulation. The author provides computed scenarios for which thick light sails (on the order of 0.5 kg per square meter) can enable light-sail driven craft to attain accelerations of over 0.1 G in the spacecraft reference frame thereby enabling truely extreme relativistic Lorentz factors and commensurate time dilations. On the order of 1,000 classes of composite materials are introduced.
