Popis: The ramifications of phase change equations and their potential impact on interstellar space travel are covered in this article. The two phase change equations have similarities but one is derived from statistical mechanics and the other from thermodynamics. The issue of propulsion in space travel is proposed to be solved by the primary equation for the limit of superheat. Two matter-antimatter systems are taken into account: hydrogen-antihydrogen and electron-positron. Antimatter must be collected and kept isolated in magnetic bottles as part of the space travel effort.
