Re: starship-design: Apology



Lee,

Well a few nanograms is still 4 magnitudes less than 1E14 antiprotons.

1E14 antiprotons combined with the same amount of protons will release a
mere energy of 20kJ. A fire cracker will do about the same, only a little
bit less gamma rays though.
(Considering the trap weighs 50 kg, we better use firecrackers for a trip to
mars)
