The Ring
An optimized spaceship for the 21st century
Up to now spaceships were conditioned by missile shapes, with multistage launchers and relatively small payload capability conditioned by the cylindrical fairing dimensions. Such conditions could be drastically changed by a proposed new vehicle with a different shape: the ring.
PROJECT'S NAME:
Educational Toy: The Portable Tree J-1
PROJECT SUMMARY:
This innovative design is a toy model with a similarity to the Atmospheric Transformation Project: The Portable Tree which had a worldwide projection between 2010-2020 from its conceptual design to the functional construction of the laboratory practice
In this project a model of an alternative energy source is simulated. In recent years due to increases in greenhouse gas the world needs to shift its energy generation from non-renewable energy sources to renewable energy sources.
A. Cliper is a simple device that attaches to glasses and becomes a fixture for your mask’s ear straps. Cliper also works with safety glasses, sun glasses and fashion glasses.(1) Cliper will fit “standard size” eyeglasses(2)
B.
The innovation solves the problem of massive demolition, earthmoving, and drilling without using explosives or explosive propellants. The innovation utilizes a linear motor device and projectile (such as a railgun) to create tunnels and shafts, break rock, and move soil.
In comparison to 2020, entry speed controlled bidirectional mechanical traction is applied on B1 and B2 of modified inclined plane to keep A1 and A2 at 45°automated by motorised screw and bolt,
If there's thrust here then, it should boost these.
This isn't so much a design than it is a question: it is entered in this contest so it can be examined and rejoined by individuals skilled in the arts.
Consider: the Laval – a tube having a converging section,
Coastal cities continue to face flooding, and one solution for sustainable development is buoyancy. Floating on the surface above the rising tides, vessels have inherent seismic resistance and the lack of costly deep foundations. Modular construction of large structures also lend themselves to ease of deployment,
