Nonchemical propulsion systems are considered because chemically-fueled rockets require exorbitant initial weights; survey of features of nuclear and solar thermal systems, ion and plasma propulsion, photon propulsion and isotope "sail"; notion of optimum jet velocity for minimum takeoff weight is developed (after W.E. MOECKEL) and used as yardstick; analysis of isotope sail.
