starship-design: To FTL or not to FTL, that is the question.

[kyle <stk@sunherald.infi.net>]

Greetings, all!

I know I just sent a post, but I had something that I would like to 
inform everyone of: I am creating my own starship design. I think most
of
you will probably scoff at it, but I'm gonna do it anyways. The reason I
think this is that it will be designed to travel to Tau Ceti, 11.9 ly
away,
in just 4 years. To put it simply, it involves FTL. Non-alcubierre FTL.
Something
better, faster and alot easier to do, something that we could have by
the year 2050!
No, I am not insane. Remember what people said to Columbus: "Impossible!
you'll sail
off the world." He made it here. To the Wright bros.: "Man was not meant
to fly!
It's impossible." They flew. To NASA: "We'll never get to the moon. It
ain't possible!"
We went. Why is it different with FTL? It isn't. If your interested,
E-mail me.
Later on I might post some of my ideas. Until then, I'll just help out
the 
conventional stuff. I also do habitats. I may only be 14, but I know
what I'm talking
about. (For unbelievers: I'm entering colledge). See ya later, and good
luck
from the Skytracker. (my nickname)
