bassically you need a nuclear or mega nuclear explosion in a chamber in the back of a ring spacecraft and use that as propulsion to fling it to the planet you want to go (downside being at that momentum the ship will run head on into anything that gets in the way.

after this auto spin is enable that way it adjust to the g forces and spins accordingly creating manageable g forces

this idea is very naked needs more too it.

The idea was first thought of in 1955 under the name of Project Orion
 
i didnt know that... fail. i don't read books on theory and stuff too boring but its fun to make stuff up... even the nuclear explosion chamber propulsion thing?

i know for a fact the ring with spin was already done

but there's no way that the nuclear explosion in a chamber forcing all that power outwards to make propulsion was my idea. if it wasnt that's pretty cool someone thought of it before me xD


edit: NO WAY! i read your quote its really was thought of before id did that's epic xD i have hope for mankind xD i feel so cool now ^3^
