Um.. Just for the record, George Cayley had a man airborne in controlled flight 50 years before the Wright brothers, although his aircraft had no engine because the only things with light-enough portable horsepower in Cayley's time had hooves...😁 Regarding the advance of the human race, I think a real sign of progress would be sorting out mankind's problems here on Earth before indulging in 'useless' jaunts into space. With respect to all those concerned, including those who lost their lives in the endeavour, putting a man on the Moon was an absurd waste of time, money and human ingenuity, intended purely to sooth a nation's bruised pride after having lost the only space race that mattered to Russia [i.e. achieving low Earth orbit and creating artificial satellites]. We have no business spreading ourselves across the solar system in person until we've shown that we can manage planet Earth successfully. THAT would be an impressive feat. Running away to the Moon or Mars is wrong wrong, wrong. An adult who's soiled his bedsheets should wash them, not just go next door and vomit in a clean bed. And so-called space tourism is nothing more than a money-grabbing ego trip. We can do a lot better than that as a species. The human race has proved that it isn't mature enough to go off planet.

Hello everyone! Thank you for the enormous support this effort has received over the last few months. VERA Station and Sargon Systems are very exciting projects that will deliver an astounding level of human infrastructure in the next few years. Our intent after the first VERA Station video was to create a VERA Station Operational System's video showing you how various station systems would protect the station from debris and others that would keep it functioning. But after getting a high level of responses requesting information about how it would be economically feasible, we decided to jump ahead to the Business Case for VERA Station video instead. This video was not easy to produce. Many weeks of research were required to get real-world numbers of how much it would cost for millions of metric tons of 2219-T8 Aluminum alloy. Most of the aerospace mills were not giving anyone a quote until 2023 due to supply chain issues. We wanted to get 3 quotes but had to go with only one and they were very apologetic that their quote was so much higher than in pre-COVID days. Engineering cost estimates were based on the only other large-scale space project in the private sector: Starship. Lucky for us, building a space station is actually easier than building a giant rocket that must be reusable within hours after landing. Sargon systems make everything easier; automated exterior construction and interior construction machines are using the same principle methods. But what is going to help us the most is the smaller steps we will take before building VERA Station: Test Module, Virgo Module, and Valhalla Station Module. A logical progression of ever bigger projects that will quickly culminate in the building of VERA Stations Inner Torus. Pricing: $2m, $1m, and $500k is where we start. Once the station is paid-off and other stations are being built we can drop the price again and again. Our goal is to drop down to $50k for a 3-day stay 5 to 7 years after VERA Station's first rotation. Expect our next video in two months: VERA Station Systems Architecture and Systems Integration. Ad Astra!

what do you do what the spacelines go on strike if you are depending on them for all your foodandwater,

I like your space construction idea, and it looks nice. Your previous spin station had flat panels and was expected to support maybe 10 psi up to 13.8 psi which is one ton per square foot against your flat panel and it would deform, burst or leak your air out. Large flat panels will fail. THe torus design with curved panels will work if welded well. Even if small panels welded are flat, there is an over all curve and the bulge of pressure will not deform the welds due to the large curved structure. 3 or four shaped volumes can support high pressure, the sphere, the hemisphere cylinder and the torus . There are some balloon shapes for moderate pressure but the torus is the most valuable of these because it will support spinning and artificial gravity. My space station too encorporates the torus and spin and will take close to 30 launches also and support up to 350 peoplecontinuously or 1,000 for short periods.

You talk about using 30 starship launches to build the station. This means that you would be sending 30 starships back down to earth empty. Why not just leave the starships in orbit and use them to build a space station. You wouldn't have to put thermal protection panels on them saving cost, weight and fuel. The main tanks would provide a very large pressurized volume that could be outfitted with whatever you brought up in the payload bay. All you would have to do is convert the manholes to larger docking port attachments. The header tanks wouldn't be needed for return to earth so they could be either eliminated or resized for use as stationkeeping fuel. The payload bay could be outfitted with living quarters so that the construction crew could arrive with the ships. The center raptor engines wouldn't be needed for landing either so they could be replaced with a docking port. Add another docking port in the nose and the 30 starships could be fashioned into a large ring that could be asssenbled in almost no time at all. Just add a center hub and spokes and you have your space station, all costing much less and taking a fraction of the time compared to your proposal.

Can we put it double back to back, like a doubled wheel?

Yes and that’s probably a good idea. Rotating objects in space have tendencies to do strange things and spin out of control with no provocation (see dzhanibekov effect). Having two wheels spinning opposite directions would solve this problem. Additionally rotation could be sped up/down easily via braking the wheels on each other or using motors.

Partnering with space X is a great and only option

I hope your dream comes true. Eight months later, April 20th, 2023, they have tested the first starship with no clear time when this Starship will fly without blowing up.

Dream on! Just where are you planning on finding all those $500,000 passengers to fill this station? The masses on Earth live paycheck to paycheck. Only the privileged few will ever be able to visit your station. Few is the active word here.

​@@TheGatewaySpaceport I just realised how you could fund this without any government money and get that money up front and without passengers or crowdfunding. Your funding model for the station will not work it can only and will only be done one way and that way is the same way it's done on earth.

people dont get it yet but cryptos and ipfs will work when we are spread out in space

The donut hole, that is the center of Vera Station, should be fitted with a giant raptor engine, so that Vera Station can travel and change orbits from LEO to MEO and up to GEO. around the earth. The station could travel to the moon and do lunar orbits, so that people can study the moon at 100 miles high.

Out in space, the size of space stations and space ships and human population is unlimited. In space, we could build stations over 10 miles long and 1,000 feet wide and could travel through space to visit other planets and explore the Solar System and could house over one million people. We can make our own water and oxygen by having garden rooms in these stations, growing plants that make oxygen and grow food. The earth is just getting too crowded, and we need s place to expand human life and space is that place to go. The earth now has 8 billion people. In space, just between the earth and the moon, there is room for well over 1 quadrillion people. Between Earth and Mars there is room for 1 quadrillion times that!! Most people just don't know just how big the ocean of space really is.

Sounds like a decent bed however I'd like to know what progress has been made since the last video I saw this I think it was about a year ago give or take and don't you think that we as a species should be more playing nice before we start major construction on outer space just a thought let me know what you think.

All we need now if for space x starship to be able to launch & then a person starship.

At what altitude above Earth would it be at? It would be cool if it were a bit higher up than ISS so could see more of Earth at a time instead of like it is now with ISS when it basically looks like high altitude flying.

A 550km Sun-synchronous orbit is best for power generation and avoiding thermal fatigue, but it's up to our customers where they want a station built.

People do not realize or understand what an operational starship means for our immediate future. Fully reusable starships that are mass-produced will change everything. Starship is about to open the flood-gates for companies and investors like nothing you've ever seen before. A true 'space age economy' that will mark the beginning of the next industrial revolution and has the potential to immortalize the species. People are going to be SHOCKED at how much development will happen as soon as starship becomes fully operational. The Wright brothers invented the first airplane in 1903 - only ~60 years later and NASA set foot on the Moon! We had developed thermonuclear intercontinental ballistic missiles! We went from asking the question: "Can humans even fly - bro?" ...to... "We can destroy the ENTIRE PLANET at the touch of a button!!!" *all in the span of a single human life* 🤯It is a miracle that we are still here... but the socio/politico/economic ramifications of Starship are an order of magnitude greater than this; far beyond the scope of my imagination. Like 'Max-Q' for human civilization, itself.

Let's goooo

every time that some one makes a prediction or statement about when this or that rocket or spacecraft is going to fly it always ends happening then or even earlier than that, recent history proves it

You should have called the Vallhala station the longship perhaps?

Instead of aluminium, just build it out of the same materials as Space X rockets...They used stainless steel. Probably save on cost and the supply chain is establish for the Space X logistics. Then again aluminium is lighter and has the same durability. Maybe they rather be working out the kinks for the heat shield. Anyway, two sources of materials is a good thing too. Beside the dormant supply logistic chains for the NAVY LCS, Boeing aircraft, and etc....it might be a good thing.

How will the Sargon Construction Ring (CR) get out of the way as it nears completion of the torus? As Sargon reaches a point where about 10 Panel Rings are left, we extricate the machine from the construct (the torus) and produce the final "wedge" of rings ( all one piece, like a pie wedge) and insert it into the gap where a special weld ring of vertical EB welders will weld it into place. The Sargon CR will then start creating another Torus, and the special vertical seam welder inside the torus will be dismantled and removed so it can be used again to complete the next torus.

Having rotating space stations around Earth will be the gateway to become a space-faring civilisation. But the possibilities are then opened up once the process is fully understood to start to establish RSSs around all the other satellites: the Moon, Mars and in fact any planet or moon in the solar system, as well as heliocentric orbits between Earth and Venus and Earth and Mars. I do believe the RSS is the key platform to colonising the solar system.

@ErkiEntveg

Жыл бұрын

It would be intresting to see RSS, but it makes sense only as vacation spot or in orbit, where you can not land, like Venus and gas giants. But gas giants have moons, where you can land. And you know, Earth has orbiting space station, where is small gravity and you can land, it is called Moon. Why build one, when you already have one?

@yggdrasil9039

Жыл бұрын

@@ErkiEntveg That is a really good point. I think there will be both. Both RSSs and Moon bases. Habitable rotating space stations and Moon bases (very few planet candidates apart from Mars at the moment.) The thing is with RSS you can recreate 1G. On Moons you basically take what you get in terms of gravity, and that's always going to less than 1G. This is fine for short periods, but we know that long periods sub 1G is not healthy. So I am certain that it will be both RSSs and MBs, but it's possible that those living on Moons will need to go to a local RSS to recover their strength from time to time. Or even if a bio-fix is found, RSS will always offer a step ladder or stepping stone to any place in the solar system where a regulated environment can or needs to be created.
