... that are used to build the modules will be assembled on Earth. The modules will then be packed into a rocket and flown into space to be inflated. Currently, building from scratch in space is very difficult. We try to build ... safe. These components will then be sent up to space and be assembled together by robotic equipment and spacewalking astronauts. Building in space under weightless conditions is quite challenging. Spacewalking astronauts on ...

Building faster rockets generally means that the specific energy and specific power must be increased. Improving ... vertically launched single stage, limited primarily by shielding weight. Horizontally launched single stage nuclear rocket vehicles can, theoretically, achieve orbit. This is because the thrust requirements can be reduced since the ...
