Engineers and Scientists are
already planning how to send a space probe to Alpha Centauri. It will
be designed to travel a significant percent of lightspeed to get there
within our lifetimes. Learn the history of interstellar probes and what
we may see in our lifetimes from the launch of one to the nearest star.
Man has dreamed of travelling to the stars for as long as he
knew
that those points of light in the sky were stars like the Sun.
Now, in the 21st century there are actual studies and plans to send
interstellar space probes to the nearest stars. Probably to Alpha
Centauri which is only 4.3 light years away. (Only)
What is the history of plans to get to the nearest star? And what are
the plans today to make these ideas a reality?
In this book we explore the history of the scientific effort to send
“Star Probes” and how they will be built.
How will we be able to send them at a significant fraction of the speed
of light to get there in many persons lifetimes? And what technologies
will we need to develop to make this happen?
This is the start of an amazing true life adventure.
