Oh For The Want Of A Stardreamer

Post by Geraldine »

Just noticed that the Mars 500 mission finished after 520 days. This was a fake mission to Mars to test how well astronauts would cope with such a long journey. Would have been a lot quicker if they had a stardreamer! :) Here is a link http://www.reuters.com/article/2011/11/04/us-mars-isolation-odd-idUSTRE7A349220111104

Gyrostasis or whateverits called.Stardreamer sound like some IP ripoff naming.Well its a test for reallife missions.We don't have the tech to put people in stasis like it a routine thing. So thats falles under fiction.So mission are restricted far from misson lenghs where it would be high in need.I would think more on movie where space mission wenn to a thriller because some crew member snapped and kill fellow members. Space sanity.That why they put couples in there instead dozen hetro men and a few lesbians.
