Experimental Spacecraft
An extensive research and
development program, which includes computer modeling and proto-typing, will
provide information and knowledge for the design and development of the
Mirror Power sources. The design, manufacturing, testing, and operate
for the small-scale Mirror Propulsion sources are shown below.

Key Milestones are start design in 2015 manufactured in 2018, and operated
and tested in 2019.
Using the Mirror Propulsion
Source (1-Gigawatt), an Experimental spacecraft will be designed,
manufactured, operated and tested.
