This thread is about the practical conciderations of setting up a means of taking humans and/or parahumans to new star systems. The rules are simple, we must assume that living comunities, not just A.I.s and genetic matterial, are taking the journey. The fastest the ship/s can go is 4% of C. And the final rule is that we are useing the technology of THS in AD2100, and/or a reasonable extrapilation of what THS might have by 2110AD.

Myself, I assume that Generation Starships will only be sent out as fleets. One ship alone would always be to vulnerable.
