lunar industries.auto lander with nuclear oxygen plant,and others


Recommended Posts

hello, well just a few more to do,this ones going to be a auto lander,with a nuclear powered oxygen plant,to extract the oxygen from the lunar regolith.vitally important,to fuel the mining plant and return journey,s.The dumb lander also acts as a storage facility for the oxygen,also im making my representations of the remote control vehicles used to scoop up the lunar dust,and transport to the oxygen plant,also making a portable oxygen/refueling vehicle,used to refill the returning landers etc..

this is the dumb lander,with the nuclear plant..

so start with the oxygen plant first,this will give me some idea as to the size of the rest of the plant..

wellthats about the shape...

somewhere near right shape?

044_zps9ab5cdb6.jpg

with the first version,of the remote control regolith collector

043_zps56192d7c.jpg

need to fill in the nuclear power plant,going to use various pipes?

045_zps55101644.jpg

046_zpsf747972e.jpg

trying a few different sizes??

047_zpsef88e736.jpg

048_zps7ad80c09.jpg

we,ll see where this goes..

050_zps0af205e7.jpg

now with the size of the plant sorted,i can work out how big the auto lander needs to be??

052_zps99ba9fe7.jpg

pretty big?

053_zpsb976d342.jpg

054_zps93da8991.jpg

so with a few bits,it will look something like this..

060_zpsa91c34bb.jpg

061_zps20524ad0.jpg

062_zpsbd721ec5.jpg

and with the fuel tanks on,which will also be the storage tanks for the oxygen produced,??

056_zpscc86cda2.jpg

057_zps4ce94e45.jpg

so need to decide on how im going to build the dust extractors?

023_zpsc0ccaeb0.jpg

ok on with the mobile storage vehicle and lander refueler,

002_zpse6a4d55f.jpg

start with chassis.

003_zps92b8fcec.jpg

trying to work out how big to make it??

005_zps79add402.jpg

004_zpsbb02a5a8.jpg

might use some of martins models resin,steelwork as tank carriers?

006_zpsf8157323.jpg

putting some detail on the trailer bed?

007_zpscd5f235a.jpg

going to use martin,s models, s.i.d. attachments,as bits...

015_zps6defaffd.jpg

014_zps0a447850.jpg

cut these down for sticky on bits...

013_zps3a8b2c94.jpg

which will look something like this,

008_zpsd8b33a60.jpg

010_zps40af0ebc.jpg

011_zps781bcd1b.jpg

going to use some of mmodels control panels as well..

016_zps2989b308.jpg

and maybe a light bar thing as well.

017_zpscb76b7c0.jpg

which will look something like this...

018_zps85311c0d.jpg

put two control panels on

020_zps445913f2.jpg

019_zps0f8de723.jpg
