So Voyager is too slow. We are now working on a proposal to start the studies on an advanced Star Ship. It is being called 100YSS.
Don't forget Project Daedelus
Warren, you will be sorely missed this weekend.
I have not forgotten Project Daedulus. One must remember that Daedulus was worked on from 34 to 39 years ago. One could presume that the technology has advanced in that time. I for one, know of a cousin that works at MSC in Houston developing advanced propulsion systems for just this sort of project. I guess the great thing is that the thoughts are there and seed money is being spent. On the other hand, with a deficit being reported today of 5 trillion dollars in the 2011 budget, we are not doing a very good job of counting pennies.
