=== Enzmann starship === {{Main|Enzmann starship}} The Enzmann starship, as detailed by [[G. Harry Stine]] in the October 1973 issue of ''[[Analog Science Fiction and Fact|Analog]]'', was a design for a future [[Starship (interstellar spacecraft)|starship]], based on the ideas of Robert Duncan-Enzmann. The spacecraft itself as proposed used a 12,000,000 ton ball of frozen [[deuterium]] to power 12β24 thermonuclear pulse propulsion units. Twice as long as the [[Empire State Building]] is tall and assembled in-orbit, the spacecraft was part of a larger project preceded by [[interstellar probe]]s and telescopic observation of target star systems.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.centauri-dreams.org/?p=1142 |work=Centauri Dreams |title=A Note on the Enzmann Starship |first=Paul |last=Gilster |date=April 1, 2007 |access-date=18 November 2010 |archive-date=30 June 2011 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110630042240/http://www.centauri-dreams.org/?p=1142 |url-status=live }}</ref>
