The lightcraft is
a revolutionary new type of transportation for use in
earth-bound transportation as well as space bound
flights. The lightcraft takes advantage of
beamed-energy technology. Energy beaming allows the
lightcraft to carry virtually no on-board propellant,
greatly reducing its mass. Mass reduction allows the
lightcraft to quickly and cheaply reach speeds which
are needed for modern space travel. In the 1960's
NASA and the Russian Space Agency first brought man
to space. In the near future, the lightcraft will
allow mankind as a whole to go there as well.
