FREA, Inc., the Foundation for Research of the Enzmann Archive in Massachusetts, was founded out of passion and dedication to preserve and publish the life’s work of two extraordinary people: Dr. Robert and Joanna Enzmann. Their many decades of unpublished research in the field of space exploration and mission planning and all that needs to be learned for humans to colonize space is a national treasure. Their work from the stone age to the space age is unique and extraordinary.
Our mission is to preserve, catalog, and publish this vast collection of papers and manuscripts and make them available and accessible to everyone.
The Enzmann Starship is the subject of a great deal of fanart. This flyby is the excellent work of Nick Stevens. Based on the design developed by Dr. Enzmann in the late 1940s, the Enzmann Starship is a nuclear pulse interstellar ship fueled by a 3-million-ton ball of frozen deuterium. Published in Analog Magazine in 1972, this starship gained popularity among scifi enthusiasts and the engineering world of space exploration.
