I was wondering what you guys think of this idea. I emailed to NASA and guess they might or might not respond.

When traveling to Mars, space is an issue. So, why not send dwarf humans instead of the normal sized humans.
Any thoughts on this?]]> Extrasolar Expeditions Mon, 20 Oct 2008 04:47:39 GMT http://solar-flux.forumandco.com/extrasolar-expeditions-f8/trip-to-mars-though-not-extrasolar-t147.htm#824 http://solar-flux.forumandco.com/extrasolar-expeditions-f8/trip-to-mars-though-not-extrasolar-t147.htm http://solar-flux.forumandco.com/extrasolar-expeditions-f8/an-interesting-proposal-for-interstellar-communication-t93.htm Lazarus You will need: A Cepheid variable star. Getting your hands on one of these might be tricky - the nearest ones are Polaris (which seems to have various oddities which might make it unsuitable for this kind of thing) at 400 light years and Delta Cephei at 900 light years. Since yellow supergiants are probably not good candidates for hosting habitable planets, some interstellar travel capability is probably required. A really powerful neutrino beam emitter.

Though I do not know much about the topic myself, perhaps more research could be done on this?]]> Extrasolar Expeditions Wed, 04 Jun 2008 02:24:12 GMT http://solar-flux.forumandco.com/extrasolar-expeditions-f8/expansion-t17.htm#32 http://solar-flux.forumandco.com/extrasolar-expeditions-f8/expansion-t17.htm
