' Wrote:Sun slingshot technique while basic and gets the job done, I'd assume it'd be pretty dangerous for larger craft since, we only just understand how our sun works. Only recently we've placed two satellites to get a 3D image and an early warning system for solar flares.
I'm not sure if the other suns are as 'stable' as ours, and there would be massive radiation to consider right?
Although, if there is no lane networks, sun sling-shotting could be very energy efficient.
Someday I would actually like to have a jump drive..:(
