you do realize that WW2 used up a hundred times the resources/effort/money that the entire "space race" consumed, right? and if instead of WW2 breaking out in armed conflict it had become a "cold war" between the Allies and the Axis we could just as well have had a space race to the moon, in that timeline von Braun still would have landed men on the moon it's just they would have planted a different flag and it might have been in 1959 instead.

true and I can not explain it except the designer thought this is the best layout, probably is to get it "sold"

hey if they have to launch Dragons with crew up to single-launch 250 ton stations then so be it, or mate two together and make a 500 ton station even better

the hub of the station (should you decide to have one) is always effectively 0g

if anybody could have brute-forced Sea Dragon into reality it would have been the Soviets in the early 80s, and their submarine pressure-vessel building expertise would have come in handy

reasoning out the shape and size of the Earth was a triumph of the Aryan mind, flat urf is for jews and their stooges
>This chapter describes the talmudic model of the universe. The rabbis of the Talmud believed that the world was flat, and that the sun revolved around the Earth every day. There is a debate about the length of the solar year in the Talmud, and its consequences and the rare Jewish ceremony of the Blessing of the Sun (Birkat Hahammah) are discussed. The view of the talmudic rabbis is contrasted with that of the contemporary Greek astronomers. While the rabbis of the Talmud argued about the size of the flat Earth, the Greeks had determined the Earth to be a sphere, had calculated its circumference and had moved on to consider other questions.
