15 Future Space Station Ideas

Space: the final frontier. While only about six hundred people have ever been up there, we’ve had our eyes fixed on the stars. Star Wars and Star Trek taught us to dream big, 2001: A Space Odyssey helped to explain our place in the universe, and even the renowned jazz musician Sun Ra told us that space is the place and introduced us to the sounds of the astral plane. With the lunar landing in 1969 and the launching of the International Space Station in 1998, we’ve become one step closer to living a life in the vast reaches of space. But those aren’t the only human aspirations to date. People have been coming up with some great ideas of how we can slowly make our way to space and gradually establish a new life there. Some ideas are a little more far-fetched than others, but we can never shut down a dreamer! So join us for today’s video, where we look at 15 of the coolest concept space stations!

At mention of the Ringworld, I eyerolled so hard that the torque energy counteracted the Earth's spin. Pure fantasy. As realistic as the Wile E. Coyote aerospace concepts. Tensile strength like the strong nuclear bonding force. It wasn't built (in the novels) for living space by anybody who needed such a thing. Not a mention of the Stanford Torus, but you covered the orbital ring, the Brick Moon and the Ringworld?

@TheWadetube Жыл бұрын

There is an even better concept than the stanford torus. A tube within a tube, the outer tube is stationary, only the inner one spins and this offers both zero G in a station and the rating on the spinning section, anywhere from 1/4 to 1 full G force. Spinning the entire space station is a deal breaker.

@JFrazer4303 Жыл бұрын

@@TheWadetube See O'Neill's book "the High Frontier". One design called the "hatbox" had a stationary drum-shaped shell with narrow apertures that Sunlight was concentrated in through. Inside, a glass-roofed steel habitat spinning for G. A long spinning tube isn't suitable, as it's not dynamically stable and will tend to wander off-axis to spin end-over end. Yes, it can be anchored at the axes and stabilized actively, but it never makes sense to design to defy physics and then apply complexity to counter the design flaws. A drum-shape with a massive rim that's about as stable as a bicycle wheel shaped station is feasible. See the "Kalpana One" habitat.

I’m more surprised he said it is a space hotel since it is really the furthest thing from one. The Orbital Reef team have clearly stated that they plan to treat it like a business park. If someone wants to rent some of the station for use as a hotel I am sure they will be fine with it but the renter will be responsible for running the hotel themselves. This guy seems to have pulled all the facts he has about these stations out of his ass.

16:13 Sorry, but Paul Burch was *not* the "first person to propose a space elevator." That honour falls to the legendary Arthur C. Clarke, the man who wrote 2001: A Space Odyssey (the book that Stanley Kubrick adapted to the screen) was the original designer of the space elevator. He released a book called "The Fountains of Paradise," which was published in 1979, beating your man out by a good three years. Clarke is also responsible for designing things like space-based satellites (because line-of-sight is critical in establishing no-fault radio contact; Clarke designed one in his head during WWII as a radio operator, realising that trees, mountains and other obstructions are always going to be "in the way" of signals unless one puts a satellite in space)

Top Fives, so Pan Am made it outside of the Milky Way galaxy [that's what intergalactic means]? Hmm! Was that the Andromeda galaxy around a million light years away? I didn't realize we'd even made it past the moon yet. How'd I miss that?🤨 I bring this up because, as I remember, that all took place in low earth orbit, like our present day International Space Station. Why do I say that? Because the prefix "inter" means 'between', as in intercity bus, intercontinental flight, etc. The farthest afield we've gotten so far in space is the cislunar variety--between earth and the moon. Not until we fly past the orbit of the moon will we have reached interplanetary space. Then, when we pass the Voyager probes' present position, we'll be in interstellar space. To my knowledge, the only fantasy program which has ever made it to intergalactic space was Stargate SG-1.

The first 4 space stations are very likely to be built as they are all being particularly funded by NASA. All the rest are either unrealistic ideas that cannot be built anytime soon or basic concepts that never got fleshed out. But all his facts about the Orbital Reef, Starlab and Axiom space station are very wrong. He gets the Northrop Grumman pretty correct which the same basic facts apply to the other 3.

They should build the orbital ring around the moon, not earth, the concept fits better there reducing the size and with the right spin, gravity would be easier to maintain. great for staging operations for moon living and supply of materials to and from the moon from earth. Interesting concepts!

@sp66-know-try-think 6 ай бұрын

The supporting and strategic element of astronautics is space transport. The current concept of transport is based primarily on the use of chemical engines. These engines may be good for lifting cargo from Earth into orbit, but for orbital flights a) they have objective limitations b) they require significant fuel consumption. The fuel is essentially ballast most of the way. The further the flight, the more fuel is needed, fuel reserve = ballast, for which fuel must be added again and so on increasingly... This is a dead end situation from which we need to get out as soon as possible. An alternative to chemical propulsion in space flight is needed, if not today, then tomorrow. New engines are still in development. But there is another opportunity to reduce dependence on chemical engines and the need to carry large reserves of fuel into space. This solution is the creation in LEO of massive booster launch platforms-hubs, the task of which is to serve as a fulcrum and accelerator/decelerator for launching objects into higher/further orbits or for descent to Earth. And of course, to maintain their orbital motion, they must use energy and engines with high specific impulse. They may well be uninhabited.

You're right, it's usual as competitive and even though a little bit negative things due to some international space race and political tensions. We didn't accomplish many space programs because ideological conflicts caused national to international cooperation broken, so many projects had delayed or cancelled over the past decades. It's not easy to reach galactic civilization when both techs and societal issues would affects space development process. Thank you, keep your patience for space journey.
