Abstrakt: Microsatellites wielding the diagnostic armamentarium of cell phones are a new way to explore outer space. Their small mass may enable huge accelerations when they are lightsail-driven, allowing interstellar transits at 15% the speed of light. However, their power requirements remain critical, offering a role for lattice-assisted nuclear reactions in these space explorations. Nanor®-type components offer increased power availability and energy density storage. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
