Dedicated to
Rosella
This book originated from my wife’s constant
inspiration to me, through her belief that
solar photon sailing would eventually be
realized in both its usefulness and beauty.
In memory of
Dr. Leslie R. Shepherd
Leslie R. Shepherd was a great pioneer of the
modern scientific studies on interstellar
flight, and one of the promoters and founders
of the International Academy of Astronautics.
