starship-design: Fuel supplies and energy

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

Greetings.

I had an idea for fuel replenishment, as far as hydrogen and other light
gasses.
Mine comets in the new solar system. If there are none (unlikely), than
use ices
from the surfaces of the moons, or siphon gas from the gas giants. As
far as
boron or lithium, it'll have to be mined. If there were just some way to
have incredible amounts of energy, but require little fuel... Aha! Zero
point
energy. But I think too advanced. We probably wouldn't have it perfected
by
the time we needed it. Cruising through space would be so much easier if
there
were something rigid but flexible to push against. So much for the
Aether
hypothesis. I would appreciate any advanced ideas on propulsion that any
of
you might have. But if they are reactionless drives, I'll take them with
a 
grain of salt.

Atmosphere percentages anyone? I could do them quite easily.
(just takes imagination)
