I am determined to make a matter-antimatter propellsion system. I don't care if it's not possible. I'll make up some other ways to propell a starship. Yes, that's right. A STARSHIP. Ok, I might be crazy. But watching Star Trek and various other space shows have gotten me hooked. Please agree with me on one point, though...we're wasting power when we lift off. We could be using all that extra energy in something more important, like enviromental systems and/or better engines(than I intend to make, anyway) etc. etc. It doesn't matter that Star Trek isn't real, nothing of the sorts happened yet (that we know about) and a mere 15 year old girl will not, can not come up with the plan the leading scientific space researchers haven't. People, it's called faith. Did I mention I plan to work at NASA? Anyway, I have a few technical books, some graph paper, and my trusty computer here, so I can pull it off. Come back in awhile and see. And 40 years from now, when we're traveling all over space in our new STARSHIPS you'll think back and say, "Gee, I really should have paid attention to that girl back at H2G2...I could have helped." Hey, you never know. It COULD happen.

"The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy is a wholly remarkable book. It has been compiled and recompiled many times and under many different editorships. It contains contributions from countless numbers of travellers and researchers."
