More model informationA rough mock-up of the Starglider combined Solar-sail and impulse inertial-drive craft, along with the supporting Phaeton Collector Station. The solar sail on the Starglider also acts as photo-voltaic collector, which then powers banks of impulse reaction wheels along the sides of the craft. The Phaeton maintains station in orbit around the Sun and beams sunlight to power the Starglider with its massive array of collector mirrors when the Starglider passes somewhere outside the orbit of Mars.
