Could it be that the way to slow down before arriving at a destination Solar_System is to use Solar_Sails to Reflect Light coming from The Destination Solar_System for a Longtime before entering into The Destination Solar_System?
A sketch of the star system where my story takes place.
I tried to keep it as realistic as possible.
Is did however take some artistic librities to make the story blend better with the world.
Story:
'Proxima Centauri d' has not been colonised.
'Proxima Centauri b' has been colonised and renamed to 'Beacon'. It has a slightly higher gravity than earth and is gravitionaly locked by one side to the star. Regulary blasted by radiation. This was humanitys first interstellar colony. And their eventual refugue after the Exodus.
The astroid belt contains dozens of stations for construction, Ming, transport and more.
'Proxima Centauri c' is a mini Neptune with a ring. Because of it's large size, it's useful for antimatter production. In orbit around it is a spaceport for interstellar travel.
inconsistencies:
Since we can't detect things so small as astroid that means that we don't know it there is a astroid belt in the Proxima Centauri system. But i decided to add one anyway.
It is disputed if the planet 'proxima Centauri c' even exist and where it is. It is also theorized to have a ring. I decided to add it too.
Please notify me if you've Found any other inconsistentcies.
