Secret project by Earth empire designed in the 2362. The spacecraft in which the 4 person crew can travel throughout the whole solar system. Construction time two months. "Own design" THIS IS MY FUTURE CARTOON (COMICS) MAIN ACTION AREA Project idea – opening areas The main purpose of this project is to create consistent technically (with some si-fi conditions) space ship. This space ship is planned to be in future main action place of space comics I am going to prepare. For the comics I am planning to make many pictures outside and inside of the ship. It was crucial the ship to be accessible and playable inside. In fact the possibilities to make pictures inside was main priority over construction integrity of the ship. For example I divided opening of main windows in navigation room to have possibility to catch the picture “from behind the cockpit” Playability The vehicle is fully playable. It consists of four main modules 12 opened tabs provides access to the interior and comfortable fun. The vehicle has 7 doors that can be manipulated from the outside irrespective of the fact that the flaps are open or close. The vehicle also has opened hangar (airlock), speeder in the hold, mobile access to the AI modules and a few other goodies. Engines and flight The main power source is a powerful thermo-nuclear reactor, but the vehicle also has a pulse motors. With the ability to transmit a constant acceleration of 0.6 G. The vehicle reaches the orbit of Pluto in just 60-100 days. For astronauts running toward the floor quite nice 0.6 G allowing together with the chemistry of maintaining healthy muscle tissue. Most of the time ship travels in vertical position (1) using thermal core integrated engine as main thrust power. It provides 0,6 G acceleration during entire flight. The ship is not fully aerodynamic, but its strong pulse engines allow flexible operations even at Venus atmosphere Pulse engines provides strong “escape” speed for the limited time. Inside structure Ship consist of the following areas: - Hibernation chambers - Medical support - Navigation rooms - Main control room - Hangar (airlock) Hibernation chambers There are two dedicated chambers that can provide wide range of hibernation from slowing metabolic time to total freezing. Medical support Most important equipment here are two medical tables. They are fully automatic and can provide wide range of body regeneration procedures. (in real minifigures can not be put into tables). This tables can also provide limited hibernation options (not fully freezing) Second important component here are “bio batteries charger”. Astronauts have rebuilded digestive system. They have build in bioenergetics system. In case of activity instead of eating and sleeping they only need to replace special bio batteries once every 36 hours. Ship is equipped with 8 bio batteries. Navigation rooms There are two separate navigation rooms each with 2 control chairs. By each of this chair astronaut can control every system of the ship. The control is made by direct mind connection (no need for other displays and interface) The more astronauts are involved in the controlling of the ship more tasks can be split between them. Either way the AI can control the entire ship by herself (girl personality named Amanda is loaded) Chairs in control rooms have horizontal position control. They can tilt in opposite direction to the ship maneuver to limit G force negative effect. (idea stolen from Interstellar) Main control room There are two major systems with direct control here. One is thermal core and second is AI. Both can be switch off here. You can also remove AI memory Hangar (Airlock) This is the only entrance to the ship. It has small speeder and repairing equipment Landing Shuttle is equipped with landing pads. But it is too heavy to be really lifted by this pads. In the early stage of the ship landing pads were integrated part of the ship. Later I removed them and I only place it near to ship to make a pictures. Future and development This is first version of the ship. I am not sure if it will be final one. I got feedback that the shape of the ship is a bit strange, and I have to admit that the head is in different style than the rest. I also miss to build repairing robot. So there is a big chance I will develop the project. High resolution pics: https://www.flickr.com/photos/migalart
