I need to build a spaceship in 4 weeks?

Question

Can someone link me to a design or something. I have a crew of 6 and a lot of the materials already purchased. I also have a lot of books on space and videos to watch and prepare me.

Answer 1

So, you have cracked the 'secret' of 'anti-gravity' then ?

I suggest you bribe a few under-paid guards at one of the ex-soviet naval bases and purchase an ex-cold war submarine .. the soviets have lots to spare and access to a fully functioning Nuclear sub isn't likely to cost more than a few $ million - tell them you are making a movie and they might even let you in for free !

Once you are, all you have to do is fit your 'anti-gravity' drive and just leave (take off straight up & fly at about 100 ft to avoid the radar)

NB. Make sure you get one with a fully recirculating cooling system - those that rely on external water for cooling are not going to function too well in space :-)

Answer 2

It took 400,000 people 3 years to build one Apollo Saturn V vehicle and you want to build what in 4 weeks? It ain't happening.

Answer 3

Do you mean a friggin billion dollar spaceship as in NASA projects? Or just a rocket....... if you're going for the big cheese.... errr.... I don't think thats legal.

Answer 4

Steve B - if he figured out antigravity (in the form of exotic matter), he could just make a wormhole and skip the whole process.

Do that.

Answer 5

in 4 weeks...ey? if its so urgent there think of other ways of going to space. u don't even need a spaceship! starting with dope

Answer 6

If you don't even have a design yet, how do you know that you've already purchased a lot of the materials?

Answer 7

A space ship being built in 4 weeks is unreasonable unless you literally have hundreds of millions of dollars stashed away.

Spaceship One (funded by Virgin) made orbit (barely) and then landed, and that was after more than five years of development ... and you want to build one in four weeks?

You cannot possibly learn what you need to in so short a time at our current level of technology.

Answer 8

Is this an assignment or something???

Answer 9

High concentration hydrogen peroxide poured over an aluminum grating would be a strong enough reaction to get you free of the bonds of Earth.

Hydrogen peroxide is the way to go...

Answer 10

Good Luck then!!!

Answer 11

Don't worry, it's not illegal to fly your own man-made craft.  Perfect design that has a patent on it, but you could vary your own design just enough to not get sued.
