Welcome Aboard!

Once-Upon-A-Time-To-Be
Welcome aboard Enzmannstarship.com. Here you will find various works, notes, and interstellar aerospace systems engineered by Dr. Robert Duncan-Enzmann (Bob), and Joanna Enzmann. Realizing there is a vast resource here, and it is - as far as I see without exception - applicable, I have urged, cajoled, and persuaded that his set of personal notes be abbreviated, edited for readability, and published together with hers. For if I don't the notes will just linger in an attic, eventually crumbling into dust.
Through shelves and shelves of unpublished hand-written manuscripts comes detailed histories of astronomy, geology, and humanity - chronologies of Great Years past, and science for the destined next step. This web site is developed to bring Bob's starships to light, and outline the ultimate human endeavor - to move among the stars.
Yes, we now have the engineering and technology to build the ultimate machine, to build and operate the ultimate engine, powered by an unlimited fuel supply, to survey the stars in near-speed-of-light, no-time travel. Acceleration and deceleration is all we need to traverse any light-years distance we want, and that formula (if V=C, then t=ø, Lorentz) was provided to us over one hundred years ago. Pioneers are watching their lives pass before seeing the advantage they have provided realized. Therefore, our generations stand at the threshold of the next "small step for Man" enabled for our next "giant leap for Mankind."
We stand in awesome wonder on the shore, and stare into the greatest ocean we have ever seen. Ancient symbols illustrate our history of it, we have built our temples as allegories to it, we have measured our time and world by it, and we have planned our survival around it. We have the maps and formulas to explore its heights, its widths, and its depths. We have an inherent ability to choose a direction, chart our course, and accomplish our goals.
So this is my question - starships now? With knowledge of our past comes the responsibility for our future, to build upon the advantage we've been given, following the example of our heritage of providence for constructive achievement, and strive to perfect our own "Once-Upon-A-Time-To-Be."
