Well, Heinlein's story "The man who traveled in elephants" was always
fun, though it does not deal with space travel. There was a story in
late 1995 in one of the SF mags that dealt with a woman trying to make a
near solar skim to grab a small singularity that is bound in a
prominence. It was rather good, though I don't recall the author or the
name of the story.
