Good afternoon...!

Of course, you may use my graphic in your report.  I attach a conceptual 
image of a later version of SPS-ALPHA for your information, if that 
might be of interest.  In either case, please provide an appropriate 
caption; I would ask it to say "SPS-ALPHA Concept by John C. Mankins".  
(The images are owned by me, not NASA, and so NASA does not need to be 
cited in the caption.)

I trust that you are familiar with my book, "The Case for Space Solar 
Power"?  It provides considerably more detail concerning SPS_ALPHA than 
does the NIAC report of 2012.  (It can be found at Amazon.com)

Thank you.

- John

Dear Mr Mankins,

I am a graduate student from Stanford University and am currently 
enrolled in a class taught by Professor Robert Laughlin - PHYSICS 240 
Introduction to the Physics of Energy - in which we write short articles 
on various energy-related topics. I wrote a piece on space-based solar 
and would like to include the above image which is included in your 
report to NASA in 2012 (SPS-ALPHA: The First Practical Solar Power 
Satellite via Arbitrarily Large Phased Array (A 2011-2012 NASA NIAC 
Phase 1 Project), and would like to request for permission from you to 
reproduce it in my report. I hope to hear back from you regarding this, 
thank you!
