We recently approached another group with regard to some cooperation in space development. This group had some interesting ideas but the further we probed into their claims the more apparent it became that they were not at the stage they claimed to be. This is unfortunate as we are always happy to hear of others with space development plans.
Two changes coming soon.:
1) We are re-engineering our asteroid mining system. We are compacting it to reduce the number of launches required to lift the entire system.
2) We are designing an orbital (LEO) platform as a multipurpose facility. It will become a transfer point for minerals we are delivering to Earth. There will also be fueling, zero 'G' labs and a full gravity ring to accommodate tourism and "perks" for our membership. The ring, fueling and initial lab space will be built before work begins on the Habitat.
Stay tuned, more to come soon!
