Hi,
At half the speed of light, the kinetic energy of a Hydrogen molecule is in
excess of 200 MeV. At that energy it isn't
going to bounce off. It's going to embed itself in the hull material and
deposit all its energy, thereby ablating the
hull material, irrespective of its composition.

1) I think I have just finished providing at least one reason why Interstellar
travel is limited.
2) I think there is actually lots of evidence of technolog

...se we revert to SciFi to maintain the dream, rather than face reality?
I think it's time we change the dream. We are not going to be leaving the Sol
system an
Pity the re-re-make of "Dune" release date has been delayed from December
2020 to October of 2021. We will probably encounter the TOET by then.
