Retrotechtacular: The Nuclear Cruise Ship Of The Future Earns Glowing Reviews 28 Comments I’m sure that’s an underlying reason for Venus neglect! Imagine getting rejected yet again, when you may be the only eligible mate within 216 million kilometers. I also think it no coincidence that Venus is the goddess of love, and of course nerds are terrified at the faintest possibility of that, even in the distant future in outer space. Because once you start factoring human life support into the Mars scenarios, Mars stops being fun. In KSP, life support simply has not been implemented into the game, so no wonder Kerbal fans speculate about Mars. So, yes, people want to go to Mars, but they are all odipútse. People don’t even like to travel the Sahara, and Mars is an exceptionally cold, empty desert planet with no sandworms or spice. And the possibilities for… Zeppelins! Awesome-sauce! Really, Mars is great for non-human exploration, but an incredible waste of resources to bring humans. I take exception to “nobody wants to go there”! That linked article explains “At an altitude of approximately 50 kilometers, conditions inside the Venusian atmosphere… (are) almost identical to surface-level pressures on Earth, and the average temperature is cool enough that liquid water can form”.

While Netflix has had a hand in some surprisingly realistic science fiction in the past, they’ve also greenlit some real groan-worthy productions (if you haven’t watched Away, don’t). The spinning spacecraft, which uses a spent upper stage to counterbalance its crew module and features a stationery utility node at the center, certainly looks impressive all the more so with the knowledge that it’s based on sound principles.

While naturally some artistic license was used, is excited by what he’s seen so far. So they reached out to, who in turn used KSP to throw together a rough idea of how such a ship might work in the real-world.Īs you can see in the video below, the CGI spacecraft shown in the film’s recently released trailer ended up bearing a strong resemblance to its KSP prototype.
The only problem was, they weren’t sure what that would actually look like. The writers of Stowaway wanted their film to take place on a Mars cycler, and to avoid having to create the illusion of weightlessness, they wanted their fictional craft to also have some kind of artificial gravity. An early KSP proof of concept for Stowaway. It’s worth noting that a similar cycler orbit should be possible for Earth-Venus trips, but nobody really wants to go there. The concept can be thought of as a sort of interplanetary train: where passengers and cargo are picked up and dropped off at “stations” above Earth and Mars.
The spacecraft couldn’t actually stop at either planet, but while it made a close pass, smaller craft could rendezvous with it to hitch a ride.
Put simply, it describes an orbit that would allow a vehicle to travel continuously between Earth and Mars while needing only an occasional engine burn for course corrections. The Mars cycler concept was proposed in 1985 by Buzz Aldrin as a way to establish a long-term human presence on the Red Planet. It turns out he used his virtual rocket building skills to help the creators of Netflix’s Stowaway develop a realistic portrayal of a crewed spacecraft in a Mars cycler orbit. But as revealed in one of his recent videos, YouTube isn’t the only place where his KSP craft can be found these days. Fans of the lusciously voiced space aficionado will know he often uses Kerbal Space Program (KSP) in his videos to knock together simple demonstrations of blindingly complex topics such as orbital mechanics.
