Dual Harp Space Station

An open source / open hardware project for a space station. The basic concept consist of two single pylon cable-stayed harp bridges connected by their pylons with a cable.

Dimensions

The approximate dimensions of the station are:

  • Radius: ~1000 m
  • Bridge span: 300 - 500 m
  • Width: 30 - 50 m
  • Pylon height: ~200 m

Rotation

The Station would rotate approximately at 1.5 rpm to achieve a centrifugal acceleration of 1 g.

Bridge design

The cable-stayed bridge design is based on the Ada Bridge in Serbia.

Materials

While the Ada Bridge main construction material are concrete and steel, the Space Station would replace steel with kevlar or other light material.
