Pretty Space Pictures
Hi. I'm Snow and for my senior design capstone we designed stuff.
I wasn't involved in any of the CAD design for any of these, but I'm sharing them anyway, with some explanation, so there.
Look, pretty pictures!
First, our space station. We called it "Habitat Orbiting Mother Earth" or HOME. It orbits at 72,000 km radius, or roughly 200 times as far from Earth as the International Space Suit. It's designed for three crew for time periods of six months at a time.
Here it is in the rocket.
Being deployed.
At final configuration in space. See how tiny the Earth is?
And second is our "Satellite Servicing Vehicle", or SSV. It goes to satellites that need servicing with one crew member inside of it.
It looks like a frog to me.
Interior view!
Servicing a satellite. The satellite here is particularly large.
The Robotic Servicing Module, or RSM.
Also we have fuel depots, not pictured. They're basically tanks of fuel.
Comments welcome either here or on Dreamwidth (
