- Dartz - 05-12-2012 It's getting slashdotted into the ground. But This one should work. It's not actually that insane of a plan. The saucer-section contains a rotating crew compartment behind the hull. Having the nuclear reactors seperate from the crew modules in the engineering section makes perfect sense from a safety standpoint. And the nacelles, I think, would make damn fine radiators. ________________________________ --m(^0^)m-- Wot, no sig? - robkelk - 05-14-2012 Looks like we should revise the Vesta entry a bit, to bring it up to http://apod.nasa.gov/apod/ap120514.html]current RL knowledge.
