Blueprint for Interstellar Travel: summary, description and annotation

We offer to read an annotation, description, summary or preface (depends on what the author of the book "Blueprint for Interstellar Travel" wrote himself). If you haven't found the necessary information about the book — write in the comments, we will try to find it.

Blueprint for Interstellar Travel is a primer on a unique theory of interstellar travel. It presents ideas originally put forth by Michael Miller and Larry Maurer and assembled by Paul Kirsch in a way that makes the information accessible to the lay public. The very first to present a new paradigm for space travel, based on the energy signature of a remote photon, its illustrated with vibrant color images that clearly explain the ideas and technology behind them. One of the core ideas discussed in Blueprint for Interstellar Travel involves exploiting Heisenbergs uncertainty principle at a human-sized level. As such, this book presents a unique paradigm with no commonality to the conventional back-exhaust rocket system presently in use, or other advanced and novel space travel systems. Developed over a ten year period since the publication of Paul Kirschs previous book, This Way to the Stars, Blueprint for Interstellar Travel provides new and comprehensive information supported by peer-reviewed literature. Introductory text describes the lives of the inventors and the challenges faced by those who present new ideas. it concludes with a vision of how we might continue to explore the universe.

Part of the popular definition of the word space is, for example to go into earth orbit. Well, earth orbit can be low as two hundred miles above earths surface. Thats the distance from New York to Boston. My interest in space goes vastly beyond that- to galaxies, black holes, the Big Bang. Now if we had ways to travel that far, sure, sign me up. Visit the Andromeda galaxy? Im ready to leave tomorrow. But we dont have a way to do that yet, so Ill sit back and wait for that to come.

I, for one, want to live in a nation that values dreaming as a dimension of the spending. Most if not all of those dreams spring from the premise that vast discoveries will transform how we live.

Infinity
But, sure, the sky is big, I said;
Miles and miles above my head;
So here upon my back Ill lie
And look my fill into the sky.
And so I looked, and, after all,
The sky was not so very tall.
The sky, I said, must somewhere stop,
Andsure enough!I see the top!
The sky, I thought, is not so grand;
I most could touch it with my hand!
And reaching up my hand to try,
I screamed to feel it touch the sky.
I screamed, andlo!Infinity
Came down and settled over me

In memory of Larry Maurer who brought the dream of the technology for interstellar travel to my attention 30 years ago.
1948-2011
And with special thanks to Michael Miller the source of these many ideas, who labored to teach me as I labored to understand him.

The date on the display window relates to the 100 Year Starship Symposium of September 30, 2011. Although NIAC (NASAs Innovative Advanced Concept) program may have been the first government support for breakthrough technologies, the NASA/DARPA 100 Year Starship Symposium was the first high visibility, landmark public event in the shift to discuss and fund deep space exploration.
INTRODUCTION
What has intrigued me since the start of this project is the supreme originality of the premise; the idea of building a probe that could travel interstellar distances by methods that are without precedent. I have made it my mission to translate what I can of inventor Michael Millers complex ideas (and complex expression of those ideas) into language acceptable to both trained scientists and the lay public and to communicate these ideas to a broader audience.
Talking with Mr. Miller and reading some of his technical manuscripts has opened my mind to the vision of interstellar travel: a vast and pristine landscape of new ideas and extraordinary potentials. There is, for me a spiritual quality to this vision, it is breath-taking in its aesthetic.
What has also fascinated me is that while there are esteemed scientists who write about cosmological theory, and speculate about possible advanced propulsion systems, Michael Miller is working toward the actual development of a craft and to that end he got patents with his business partner, Larry Maurer, both in the US (USP 4, 817, 102) and abroad (Japan 1, 864, 717). He and Mr. Maurer also co-founded a business, Unitel.
I feel the plan I present here is a solid start to the quest for interstellar travel. Yet, the question remains whether these ideas hold up to close scientific scrutiny by minds greater than my own. It may be that the answer is not a resounding No, but neither is it a solid Yes. There are many theories here and a lot needs to be modeled. Rather I see it as a grey area, where with greater refinement and experimental testing, it may come to be and I want to push the refinement as far as I can.
What Motivates the Quest for Interstellar Travel?
I have been asked why I am interested in the possibility of Interstellar travel. Was it an escapist fantasy? Was there something else?
