In this book we have presented many advanced propulsion concepts, for spacecraft architectures that can help us explore the Solar System and beyond towards the nearest stars. Here we show some of these concepts visualised in colourful illustrations. These range from the near-term practical to the fantastic and speculative. Yet it is certainly interesting and thought provoking to consider these possibilities. In the next few pages, we will show colour images of some of these concepts so as to illustrate the ideas in more detail. These are shown in Figs. 15.1–15.20.

摘要

In this book we have presented many advanced propulsion concepts, for spacecraft architectures that can help us explore the Solar System and beyond towards the nearest stars. Here we show some of these concepts visualised in colourful illustrations. These range from the near-term practical to the fantastic and speculative. Yet it is certainly interesting and thought provoking to consider these possibilities. In the next few pages, we will show colour images of some of these concepts so as to illustrate the ideas in more detail. These are shown in Figs. 15.1–15.20.
