The First Interstellar Colony - Our First Home Among the Stars
youtu.be/r1VZVmnIZDg
Before we plant flags on alien worlds, we’ll build homes that can cross the void. This episode explores how humanity’s first interstellar colony might be born inside the ship itself.
In Manchester (UK) on Wed 19th Nov ?
In this talk Rob and Adrian from the Graphene Engineering and Innovations Centre and @isecdotorg.bsky.social , will explain what graphene is and how it will enable the ultimate civil engineering project: The Space Elevator.

The technical detail is excellent, and I like the comment about the BIS exceeding the scope of their name...

WSPEC perhaps should concentrate on finding a large corporate sponsor, though maybe few would want to be involved with Space Elevators...

Here's an interesting paper by our member @adamsspaceresearch.bsky.social et al.
There's been criticism that it proposes alien origin for 3/Atlas, but it says that is not so : it's an academic exercise mentioning our habit of seeing pattern in randomness.

Here's a recent video from @hoojiwana.bsky.social talking about the recent 'Pulsar Fusion' publicity.
Are his conclusions correct ? Or will Pulsar take us to the stars ?
Comments are welcome !!
Spoiler alert ! So it has no radiators, no realistic fuel supply and irradiates any cargo or crew ? It might have a smart website, but I won't be investing...

How will it impact the industries it'll transform ? If it enables the #SpaceElevator, how will that impact space transportation & industries such as Space Solar Power #SBSP ? Be there for answers...
Photo of speaker and slide. Text as follows : Space elevator climber can be made with today’s technology • Requirements for an Earth-based SE • strength/weight • candidates • Graphene Super Laminate • new material • layering of graphene sheets prevents tears • From lab-scale to industrial scale • roll-to-roll processing • multi-layer PCG 1 km lengths
Here's a photo of our President, Dr Dennis Wright, at the recent NSS #ISDC2025 conference in Orlando at FL.
He's presenting an important message : "The #SpaceElevator Climber can be built with existing technology..."
