Yes, I am not convinced that the Hydrogen Steamer stealth ship will work, but Isaac Kuo is a reputable source and I am not enough of a physicist to find the flaws. So I add the concepts to my website in order to get critiques like yours.

Oh, and what government is financing that pirate ship? It's going to cost billions of currency units to design and build, if not hundreds of billions. I do like that the pirates in SPAAAAAAACE quote shows up after Crazy Eddie...

I read that article on Pirates and disagree on the "stealth ship" design. Just how big is that ship, covered in Vantablack? How large are your cryotanks of LH and LHe? How much expansion do you have planned for them, or are you venting to space... And since your ship is black, it will get hot. Also, do you plan to take decades for your trips, as cold jets don't have much umph. Unless you do a lot of it, then you turn into a comet. No, you do the smart thing, you put a bomb on a ship and demand a ransom payment or the drive goes. Payments to an anonymous series of accounts that hide in the payments via some tricky anonymous VPN connections. Safer, and you don't have to worry about the ship your going after using the Kzinti lesson on you...
