I'm currently designing a small luxury space yacht for a high ranking executive.
The engine design uses water as fuel, and one of the cool features that came to mind is using one of the fuel tanks as a swimming pool (Not really an original, i think this was written from one of the space odyssey books) My intent is that the pool will be a standard fuel tank (with some minor internal customizations) and when half the fuel was used it would be used as a pool. How would you stat this, in terms of fuel capacity? Here is the design for reference purposes. Peregrine space yacht (TL10, SM6) This is a winged, streamlined design. Capable of both atmospheric flight and excellent space performance. And best of all is quite cheap to operate since it uses water as it's reaction mass. A perfect craft for the busy executive or a crack team of operatives. 0.12g , 72mps, 30 tons of water. Front 1) Adv. Metalic laminate 2-5) Habitat (Passengers: 1 Luxury cabin, 2x Standard cabins) 6,Core) Fuel tank (Water, doubles as a swimming pool) The entire front section is mounted on an axis an spins to create artificial gravity. Middle 1) Adv. Metalic laminate 2-5) Fuel tank (Water) 6) Control room Rear 1) Adv. Metalic laminate 2-5) Fusion rocket (High thrust, Water: 0.03 per engine) 6) Engine room. Core) Habitat (Crew: 1 Bunkroom) Last edited by adimar; 06-06-2012 at 01:13 AM. |
