thanks for the help

Hello everyone its me again i need help in desighning plans for the factory modoule that can be put on the moon in my earlier Orion project can I get some help on the design of said factory? Key Parts: Chemical Plant for the production of rocket fuel / chemicals needed in the production of rocket parts Metal smelter for the production of metal for metal parts 3D printer capable of printing parts in both metal and ceramic glass factory for the production of glass parts like windows If you can think of anything else please feel free to post

somewhere in the hundreds of billions assuming that we can get a mining colony for ores costs can be paid by production of bigger and bigger facilities on the moon as well as reducing the fuel costs dramatically to put ships in orbit as long as said fuel is made on the moon

if we can put a factory on the moon it could lower costs of space exploration in the long run

i under estimated the cost so I switched small factor to main factor

I don't I have a job yet I just want an estimated amount for this project I might get government funding if I'm lucky This is mainly a proof of concept build that may go into production for the future

Hello I am looking for a substitute for the nuclear war head in an Orion drive rocket. the main reason for this is I want to launch a probe controlled (during launch) habitat module of ridiculous proportions into space or possibly land it on the moon. money will be a main factor in this project of mine so I will want an estimate of the total cost (including habitat frame of various sizes) the charges for the engine can be of various shapes and sizes/types (EX: liquid/solids) for maximum efficiency if possible I want 3D models / animations but pencil drawings will work if they are relatively neat. consider structural integrity people! but otherwise good luck and may the games begin Ps: this needs to be able to work if all else fails I will make reference to the military for help/suggestions.
