Customer Reviews

A plan for anti-matter mass production

The author proposes very realistic ways to achieve the mass production of anti-matter, and shows that the mass ratios involved with any other propellant cannot possibly be used for long distance space travel. The author proposes several types of anti-matter rocket engines that would undoubtedly produce very fast space travel, but others -- most notably Andrew Bender in his book entitled, "SlipString Drive" -- have proposed other concepts that may take us beyond the speed of light using anti-matter. I would recommend reading "Mirror Matter" first, followed by "SlipString Drive".

Very Good Book to Get Interest about Anti Matter

This Book is a Book, where we can learn about the History of Anti Matter. Also it creates Interest to Research on Anti Matter. As we know Anti Matter is the Future Energy Source.

Matter Versus Anti-Matter

An intriguing concept that authors Forward and Davis have written in terms that a lay person can understand. Star Trek captured the imagination of millions of viewers and now they can find out what made Star Trek tick with space propulsion. I highly recommend this book.
