How to Build a Starship Ep. 7) No sci fi movie is complete without a starship travelling thousands of lightyears through space. But so far man has been no further than the moon. Dr Michio Kaku sets out to design a craft that really can travel to the stars. He fires up Princeton University's plasma engine and visits the world's largest vacuum chamber at NASA's Plumbrook space facility. The solar sails being tested there might one day power us across the galaxy. At the Fermilab particle accelerator Kaku investigates the amazing properties of the most energy efficient fuel ever discovered - anti matter. Alpha Centaurii might be nearer than you think. |
