| Description | Resolution | ||
| We have chosen our destination – Beta Canum Venaticorum, otherwise known as Chara. Now we must design our ship and plan our journey. | The blueprints for our first interstellar vessel have been drawn up. Named the "Bifrost," it will be the largest vehicle in human history. The Bifrost's basic design consists of a large central propulsion and engineering section, with a cylindrical outer ring that will hold our colonists. The ship will spin around its central axis to provide (effective) gravity to the outer ring; the propulsion and engineering section will remain in zero-g. An ablative shield at the ship's rear will be targeted by the hab's launching lasers to provide an initial burst of acceleration to take it out of the Solar System; from there, the main drive will take over, providing a steady acceleration of 0.25g. Speed will peak at 0.97c. Counting both acceleration and deceleration, the total travel time will be 32 years from an Earth frame of reference, but from the perspective of the passengers, 16 years will pass between their departure and their arrival. The task for our would-be colonists is a daunting one. We have only the most minimal knowledge of our destination. There are hundreds of ways in which the mission can fail, and in this context, mission failure means certain death for every man, woman, and child aboard the ship. Given this, one would expect that we would have very few volunteers. The truth is quite the opposite. The Bifrost will be able to carry 4,180 colonists at maximum capacity, and we already have more than ten times that many applicants, with more approaching us every day. Humanity's pioneer spirit is very much alive. | ||
