jaf Posted February 5, 2022 Share Posted February 5, 2022 im gonna keep this short and simple Ive been thinking that what if for colonies on low gravity bodies you could use a mass accelorator like system to get stuff into orbit, and it could work like runways where its a modular design and the more "mass accelorator track" you have the better your chances for getting into orbit/faster you go to get into high/low orbits. Ive also been thinking what if for planets/gas giants with dense atmospheres you could have floating colonies/airships, in fact if you have one in a gasgiant this could be how you get mettalic hydrogen and it would make launches to orbit easy if its on a planet like eve. thank you for coming to my ted talk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
