ABSTRACT I

Space community is the sixth in succession socio-politic paradigm of the civilization. There are two polar opposite views on space ideology: geocentric and cosmocentric. The challenge is to look from space at

Earth as at one of civilization’s numerous spacecrafts and to perceive it as an ordinary part of space nature. It is 88 constellations and not gods of Ancient Egypt, Greece and Rome that will become orienting points for cosmonauts-astronauts.

There are no earth tops and bottoms, days and nights, no seasons, equinoxes, solstices, months varying length and no moon phases in space. Space community’s spacecrafts will be absolutely independent of

Earth’s industrial potential as well as of Earth itself as the community’s life-spring and the cradle of civilization.

The sixth socio-economic paradigm is cosmocentric and astrocentric. This makes it different from the five previous paradigms which were geocentric: primitive communal, slave-owning, feudal, capitalist and socialist. Five

Basic ideas of space expansion are stated in the article.

ANNOTATION I 


Space society is the sixth socio-economic formation of civilization. There are two diametrically opposed points of view on cosmic ideology: geocentric and cosmocentric.

The challenge is to look from space to Earth as

On one of the many spaceships of civilization and perceive the Earth as an ordinary part of the nature of space. Landmarks for astronauts-astronauts will be 88 constellations, and not the gods of Ancient Egypt, Greece and Rome.

In space there is no earthly top and bottom, day and night, there are no seasons of the year, no equinoxes, no solstices, no months of different sizes, no phases of the moon. The spaceships of the space society will be completely independent of the industrial potential of the Earth and of the Earth itself as its source and the cradle of civilization.

The sixth socio-economic formation is cosmocentric, or astrocentric, and in this it differs from the five previous geocentric ones: primitive communal, slave-owning, feudal, capitalist and socialist. The article outlines five main ideas of space expansion.

Key words: space society, geocentrism, cosmocentrism, astrocentrism, homeostatic ark, NASA centrifuge spacecraft.

I. INDUSTRIAL REVOLUTION IN SPACE

What will be the main parameters of homeostatic arks [1]? What will replace the modern ISS, Space Shuttle and Soyuz? The creation of artificial gravity is the main condition for long-term manned expeditions in deep space.

S.P.Korolev began designing a spacecraft with artificial gravity to reach and master the Moon and Mars back in 1963. To reduce its size, he proposed using a counterweight - a system of interconnected rotating bodies. For the orbital ship, the counterweight was to be the empty last stage of the launch vehicle, which today is simply thrown away.

NASA astronauts Gordon and Konrad implemented Korolev's idea on a spaceship

Gemini 11. The launch was made on September 12, 1966 at 14:42:27 UTC, landing on September 15, 1966 at 13:59:35 UTC.

They connected the last stage of the Agena XI missile to the Gemini 11 with a 30-meter cable. The system revolved around a common center of mass with a shoulder - a radius of about 15 meters - that is, it was almost equal to the size of the TsF-18 centrifuge at the Yu.A. Gagarin CTC, which has a shoulder - a radius of rotation of 18 meters.

The Gemini - Agena line connected by a cable was brought into rotation. With the help of the Agena engines, the apogee of the orbit was raised to a record height: 1372 km (853 miles) [2]. The world's first centrifuge spacecraft was created.

II. THE CONCEPT OF TOTAL SPACE INDUSTRIALIZATION

Astronaut flights to the International Space Station are of great importance to the space industry, but the ISS has a limited orbital duration. The wall thickness of the station is ≈2-3 mm of aluminum (in some places - only ≈1 mm). She is not able to protect the crew from the destructive effects of cosmic radiation.

Therefore, NASA has strict standards for staying on the ISS for astronauts. Due to the negative effects of radiation, a 45-year-old man is allowed to stay in near space for 344 days (≈11.5 months) versus 187 days (≈6.2 months) for a 45-year-old woman [3].

In this case, according to the conditions of "reversible" destruction of the skeleton, there is a strict limitation of the time spent in microgravity conditions, it is ≈450 ÷ 600 days [≈15 ÷ 20 months]. Thus, today the radiation limit is ≈2 ÷ 4 times stricter than the microgravity limit.

Image above: Creation of artificial gravity on the spacecraft: two parts of the spacecraft, connected by ropes, are brought into rotational motion around the common center of mass by radiation ≈2 ÷ 4 times tougher than the limitation by microgravity.

During relatively short-term flights in low orbits in the vicinity of the Earth below the Van Allen radiation belt, the microgravity factor is in the shadow of the radiation threat - it is not yet paid serious attention to.

Image above: To protect a large industrial space settlement from radiation, it is necessary to apply passive protection, the mass of which will be at least 4.5 tons for every two square meters of the outer walls: the total mass of this protection will be almost 10 million tons.

But in long-term interplanetary flights, the microgravity factor will inevitably dominate all other threats.

For a real flight to Mars "there and back" it will take at least 33 months (2¾ years or about 990 days) [4], which is more than twice the theoretically calculated critical level of 450 days (1 about 15 months) for a person to be in the conditions microgravity.

The ISS was born on November 20, 1998. On this day, at 9:40 Moscow time, the first element of the "space constructor" - the "Zarya" module - departed from Baikonur. Zarya is 12.6 m long and 4.1 m in diameter.

Now this module is used mainly as a warehouse. During the first three years of the ISS construction, the Russian Mir station was also in space. Therefore, the ISS construction crews lived on it. The first humans entered the ISS on November 2, 2000. The American segment of the ISS has already been fully built, and the creation of the Russian segment has been delayed, it is planned to be completed only by 2020.

By 2019, the outer casing of the International Space Station began to gradually collapse due to the use of materials in it that were unable to withstand the effects of harsh cosmic radiation for a long time.

At the same time, the estimated life of the ISS ends in 2020. However, in 2015

Roscosmos and NASA have agreed to extend the life of the station until 2024 in the form in which it is now located [5].

At the moment, it is obvious that the ISS is outdated morally and physically even before the completion of its construction and putting into final operation. It makes no sense for the United States to develop the ISS in the long term. Instead, NASA plans to:

1) creation of a large orbital station in earth orbit (up to 50 crew members);

2) creation of a small orbital station in the orbit of the moon;

3) creation of a habitable base on the moon;

4) manned expeditions to Mars;

5) landing of people on the surface of Mars;

6) commissioning of two new manned shuttle ships for changing crews operating at orbital stations [6, 7].

A modern manned spacecraft is, first of all, an integral part of a specific program. It makes no sense to develop a new ship without knowing the tasks of its operation. New US spacecraft are being designed not only for the delivery of cargo and crews to the ISS, but also for the purpose of flights to Mars and the Moon, for which the ISS is unsuitable in principle.

The closer the planned decommissioning date is, the more actively there is talk about an alternative to the ISS. They offer a variety of options.

Back in the second half of the 20th century, projects appeared to create real autonomous industrial cities in orbit. You can remember

O'Neill's Island, Bernal's Sphere or Stanford Torus. All of them were projects of giant orbital stations with artificial gravity, designed for thousands of inhabitants.

It seemed that each of the projected space industrial megalopolises would be able to provide itself financially and maintain autonomous working capacity, which, of course, is very important in the context of the gradual development of the complete independence of permanent residence stations (STs) from the industrial complex of the Earth.

Now such projects seem to the world community too complicated, expensive and even somewhat naive. However, experts from DC United Space Structures, Washington, DC United Space Structures, Bill Kemp and Ted Mazeyka, do not seem to think so. In any case, their projects are clearly created under the influence of the titans of the past years.

The experts proposed a whole family of industrial stations. The diameter of the smallest of them was 30 meters (shoulder - radius of rotation - 15 meters), and the diameter of the middle one was 100 meters. It is on the latter option that the greatest hopes are pinned. In any case, DC United Space Structures presented images of this station and diagrams of its internal structure [8, 9].

According to American scientists, in order to protect a large industrial space settlement from radiation, it is necessary to apply passive protection, the mass of which would be at least 4.5 tons for every two square meters of the outer walls (2.25 tons per 1 square meter of surface).

That is, the total mass of this protection will be equal to almost 10 million tons. Naturally, the task of delivering such a gigantic cargo to orbit cannot be performed purely technically, given the current level of technological development of the space industry.

Hundreds of reusable rocket systems are needed. A total, unprecedented industrialization of space is needed in the era of space society, which gradually naturally and inevitably comes into the history of civilization following the industrialization of the primitive communal, slave-owning, feudal, capitalist and socialist.

We are talking, first of all, about a huge industrial space orbital spacecraft-centrifuge NASA ("mushroom" ship), against the background of which even such an impressive ship as the "Space Shuttle" will seem small. But the development of DC United Space Structures is, rather, a compromise between the existing ISS and the giant orbital cities of science fiction writers.

The NASA mushroom spacecraft will have a diameter of 100 meters and a length of 500 meters. The ISS has a much more modest size: its width is 109 meters, and its length is 73.15 meters with a living part of 4.44 meters in diameter.

The habitable volume of the promising station - NASA's "mushroom" spacecraft - will be 2.8 million cubic meters, which is approximately 3000 times more than the volume of the modern ISS, which has 916 m3. On the other hand, for example, the DC United Space Structures project cannot be compared with the Bernal Sphere either, because the diameter of the latter, according to the idea, was supposed to be 16 km.

Such a city will be able to accommodate simultaneously from 20 to 30 thousand inhabitants. It is planned as a large industrial complex with full self-sufficiency, as the center of the space industry.

At the same time, the "mushroom" will inherit the main idea of old projects - artificial gravity. It is planned to create it by rotating the station around the central axis (shoulder - radius of rotation - 50 meters). It will be a "centrifuge in space", the rotation speed of which will be ≈4.25 rpm (≈255 revolutions per hour). This will generate a centrifugal force approximately equal to ≈1 g = 9.8 m / s². It will allow everyone on board the station to avoid weightlessness and feel like on the surface of the Earth.

For a limited period of time, a person can adapt to weightlessness, but it will become much more difficult to perform habitual actions. Warming up food, taking a shower, going to the toilet - all these things familiar to earthlings are not so easy to do on board the ISS.

Weightlessness negatively affects the human body as a whole in the long term. One of the most unpleasant effects of weightlessness is rapid muscle atrophy, including the muscle of the heart and the muscle tissue of the blood vessels. Destruction of the bone skeleton, the hematopoietic system of the red bone marrow, followed by a progressive decrease in all basic physical parameters of the body.


Image above: Homeostatic Ark - the development of DC United Space Structures - is, rather, a compromise between the existing ISS and the giant orbital cities of science fiction writers.

To combat the negative effects of weightlessness, the ISS today uses special simulators with varying degrees of efficiency.

But it is impossible to completely avoid the named consequences with their help.

Therefore, it would be preferable not to have them at all, introducing artificial gravity for the entire spacecraft as a whole, or at least only for its residential part, in combination with reliable protection of the crew from hard space radiation.

We do not yet know anything about the long-term problems (more than 15 months) of human being in microgravity. Many Soviet cosmonauts and American astronauts have been in space for short periods of time many times. But no one has ever lived there continuously for many years (more than 15 months).

Projects like the one conceived by DC United Space Structures imply long-term human presence in space.

“If we want to stay in space for more than a year, we need to make an artificial gravity system on the NGN, or we will endanger the lives of people,” says Bill Kemp, founder and CEO of United Space Structures.

In the United States, the upper criterion (limit) of the continuous stay of an astronaut in zero gravity is considered to be about 12 months.

You will have to get used to the conditions of the space "mushroom". Artificial gravity has noticeable differences from its natural counterpart on the surface of the Earth.

So, walking in the direction of rotation of the station will be similar to descending a slope, and there will be a feeling of the floor leaving from under your feet. If you walk in the opposite direction, you get the feeling of going uphill. And when walking perpendicular to the rotation, the astronaut will feel that he is "tipping" to the side.

“The chosen speed of rotation depends on the radius-arm of the rotating object and the degree of artificial gravity that we need: the larger the radius, the lower the speed of rotation, and vice versa,” says Kemp.

III. NASA INDUSTRIAL ORBITAL SPACE CENTRIFUGE PROJECT

The main cylindrical body of the orbital station ("mushroom stem") will rotate in one direction, and the dome ("cap") - in the opposite direction. This is necessary to compensate for the gyroscopic effect, or the stabilizing effect of the spinning top. Otherwise, it is difficult to control and orient the station in space.


Image above: The unique conditions of the station will allow it to become a platform for revolutionary research in the field of biology and medicine. For the first time, it will be possible to study the long-term consequences of man's stay in space.

Such a design is required for the further arrangement of the docking module, which is supposed to receive spacecraft. The station is planned to be made using composite materials, some of which are yet to be created.


Image above: The Wheel of Life is an industrial space station module. Herman Potocnik-Noordung (1928).

At the base of the station will be located industrial equipment for collecting space resources, which contain, for example, comets or asteroids.

Then - a section where several spaceships will be waiting in the wings, for example, for a flight to the Moon or Mars. In the images presented by DC United Space Structures, the spacecraft have a futuristic appearance: so far nothing like this exists.

Further, production facilities will be located. Microgravity creates unique conditions for production, so the benefits of the new station are difficult to overestimate. Closer to the "hat" of the giant "mushroom" will be placed a hotel, a 3D arena and other recreation areas.

The largest part of the station - its dome - is supposed to serve as a place to grow food for the crew, which is extremely important within the framework of the concept of self-sufficiency. In addition, it is in the dome that the command center, the equipment necessary for the work of the station's crew, and a rescue ship will be located, which in the event of an emergency will deliver people to Earth.

The unique conditions of the station will help to better understand the climate changes taking place on Earth. The station can also become a platform for revolutionary research in the field of biology and medicine. For the first time, it will be possible to study the long-term consequences of a person's stay outside their home planet.

There are a lot of options for using the mushroom spacecraft. At the same time, unlike O'Neill's "Island", "Bernal's Sphere" or "Stanford Torus", it cannot be regarded as a kind of new world where earthly civilization would find its autonomous salvation in the event of a global catastrophe. The dependence of the first versions of a promising orbital station on the industrial complex of the Earth will remain very significant.

When exactly do they plan to build the station? Construction, according to preliminary data, will take about 30 years: this is three times longer than it took to build the ISS.

And the estimated cost of the project is immeasurably higher - $ 300 billion (approximately $ 10 billion a year).

In 1977, O'Neill's project to build a homeostatic ark (stations with artificial gravity) failed in the United States due to its high cost of about $ 100 billion.

For comparison: today, the current annual maintenance of the ISS alone costs NASA $ 4 billion, which makes these projects competing and fully explains NASA's desire not to have meaningless expenses in the long term, preferring the construction of a more advanced space object, which is an orbiting industrial city in the form of a homeostatic ark-ship-"mushroom" (Fig. 2).

But how exactly will the DC United Space Structures station be built? According to the idea, for this they use special insect-like robots that have many "arms" to simultaneously perform various tasks. While no such device exists yet, the concept of orbiting construction robots has been around for many years.

So, when creating the ISS, "Kanadarm-1" and "Kanadarm-2" were used. The latter robot plays a key role in the assembly and maintenance of the space station. It moves equipment and materials within the ISS, assists the crew in outer space, and maintains instruments and other payloads on the surface of the station. For the manufacture of construction robots, as well as the centrifuge station itself, they plan to use the latest composite materials.

IV. ECOLOGY OF SPACE

The project from DC United Space Structures is, in fact, just a bold initiative, a well-developed design plan. The creators themselves note that they do not yet have the opportunity to answer all the technical challenges. It is not entirely clear how exactly they are going to achieve protection from radiation. The developers hope that the corresponding technologies will be created in the future.

A large station will also need reliable protection from cosmic dust and debris, which is becoming more and more in orbit. Now there are about 17.8 thousand relatively large objects, the size of which is 10 cm. If we talk about small (from 1 mm in size), then their specialists number more than one billion.

How dangerous is it? In 1983, a tiny grain of sand, approximately 0.2 mm in diameter, left a serious crack and a 0.4 mm depression in the Space Shuttle's porthole. Much later, in 2016, a centimeter pothole was found on the glass of the ISS window, supposedly left by a tiny piece of paint or metal.

In other words, at an orbital speed of more than 27 thousand km / h, even a 10-centimeter fragment can become fatal. So the risk for the ISS is very high. What then can we say about a larger object with thousands of people on board?

V. CALCULATION OF THE OPTIMUM FRAME PARAMETERS OF SPACE HOMEOSTATIC ARKS

Hermann Potocnik-Noordung published a book on manned interplanetary stations in 1928.

The Noordung project envisaged the creation of an artificial gravity for the crew by arranging living quarters and auxiliary premises on the rim of a wheel with a diameter of 30 meters (shoulder-radius 15 meters) rotating at a speed of 8 rpm or ≈480 revolutions per hour with an acceleration of ≈9 , 8 m / s² = 1 g [10].

In the real version, the centrifuges-ships in orbit will always be paired tori rotating in opposite directions to compensate for the angular momentum. The question arises about calculating the minimum allowable shoulder - the radius of rotation. With a decrease in the radius of rotation, the peripheral speed of different parts of the body increases and, therefore, its percentage change in the direction from the legs to the head (or vice versa - from the head to the legs) of a standing person increases.

A gradient arises, that is, the distribution of artificial gravity in the direction "head - legs" or "legs - head". In other words, more gravity will act on the legs than on the head, or vice versa when placed backwards. There will be no such distributed gradient if the person is located on the floor - then the head and legs will be on the same line of distance from the center of rotation.

Tests on centrifuges have established that this change between the extreme parts of the body should not exceed 10-15%; otherwise, during the movements of the cosmonaut, Coriolis accelerations, unfavorable for his well-being, will appear.

Based on the average height of a person (≈1.8 meters), it is easy to calculate the lower limit for the circumferential speed of rotation of the cab. It is equal to about 6.7 m / s [11].

The size of the shoulder - the radius of rotation of the SPP should be in the range from ≈25 to 3600 meters for a stable achievement of the level of artificial gravity equal to that of the Earth at ≈1.0 g.

The minimum shoulder is the radius of rotation of such a station, calculated according to the classical formula:

a = ω²R,

a - acceleration (a = 1.0 g = 9.8 m / s²), ω - angular velocity (measured in radians per second, ɷ = 0.6260 rad / s), R - radius (R ≈25 m).

One revolution per minute corresponds to a revolution of ≈0.1046 radians per second (2πR / 60 sec = 0.1046667 rad / sec) (Fig. 3).

If the shoulder - the radius of rotation is ≈100 meters, then in order to obtain an acceleration of 9.8 m / s² (1 g), rotation must occur at a speed of about three revolutions per minute or ≈180 revolutions per hour.

If the shoulder - the radius of rotation of the SPP is ≈900 meters, then in order to obtain an acceleration of 9.8 m / sec², the rotation should occur at a speed of approximately one full revolution per minute or 60 revolutions per 1 hour (1-hour cycle ). It will be a grandiose space clock, consisting of two double, coaxial, rotating in different directions tori.

A similar version of the SPP with a diameter of 1800 meters was proposed by Wernher von Braun in 1951-1952.

If the shoulder - the radius of rotation is ≈3600 meters, then in order to obtain an acceleration of 9.8 m / s², the rotation must occur at a speed of approximately 0.5 (½) revolutions per minute (one full revolution in two minutes) or 30 revolutions in 1 hour (2-hour cycle in 60 full revolutions).

If the shoulder-radius is ≈2.7 meters (small radius centrifuge), then in order to obtain an acceleration of 9.8 m / s², rotation must occur at a speed of approximately 18.25 revolutions per minute or ≈1095 revolutions per 1 hour.

In a compact version, a small-radius centrifuge (≈2.7 meters) can be used not only for periodic training in the "gym" of the orbital station, but also for individual sleep.

It is believed that if cosmonauts spend eight hours every day on such a simulator centrifuge-bed, theoretically this can remove some of the gravitational problems in long-term expeditions [12].

But astronauts are unlikely to perceive more than 1000 revolutions per hour as a comfortable rotational speed of a small-radius centrifuge. However, a decrease in the rotation frequency, although it will partially reduce the effect of microgravity on the level of destruction of the skeleton, will not completely solve it.

Small-radius centrifuges are a kind of intermediate temporary palliative that does not solve the problem of permanent residence in space for the entire spectrum of the space population, including women in labor, newborns, children, young people and the elderly, as well as animals and birds.

As can be seen from the above calculations, to solve these new problems of building homeostatic arks, space complexes with shoulders - radii of rotation in the range from 100 to 3600 meters are needed with the best results at ark radii from 1000 to 4000 meters.

In space, at the first stages of its exploration in the mode of permanent residence on NGN, only such “space” mega-sizes will be adequate.

Space colony. Illustration by Don Davis. 1970

Historically, the predecessor of all modern spacecraft-centrifuges is the famous TsF-18 centrifuge at the Yuri Gagarin Cosmonaut Training Center, which has a mass of 305 tons.

Her cabin accommodates two subjects at once. The arm of the apparatus is a radius of rotation of ≈18 meters, at which the share of the influence of Coriolis acceleration on the vestibular apparatus becomes insignificant, and the person no longer notices that he is being twisted - it seems to him that he is flying in a straight line. The lack of sensation of rotation makes it possible to present the G-forces in their purest form - as they would be felt during the linear motion of the ship.

In 1971, a technical assignment was drawn up for the construction of a new large centrifuge for Star City. It turned out that for the domestic industry to create such a machine is not an easy task.

Firstly, this would require stopping several aircraft factories for a considerable time. Secondly, technologies for creating large-scale precision mechanics were available only to countries that had experience in the manufacture of hydraulic units, and the USSR was by no means a leader in this area. The choice fell on the Swedish company ASEA [13], which has been successfully building centrifuges for a long time.

Scandinavian machine builders produced products of much smaller size than required by the customer, but they coped with the technical task of Star City perfectly - still TsF-18 has a significant unexploited resource. ASEA estimated its services at 11 tons of gold.

It took 10 years to realize the designers' idea, and the result of the work of the Swedish engineers was a real work of art - a dynamic simulator with an 18-meter lever. The starting power of the TsF-18 is 27 megawatts.

The TsF-18 centrifuge was put into operation in 1981. It is capable of developing overloads up to 30 units (30 g) with a maximum acceleration gradient of 5 g / s. The design provides for the evacuation of the cabin up to 20 mm Hg. Art., temperature variation from +5 to +55 ° C, as well as a change in the gas composition of the cabin atmosphere.

An overload of ≈30 g is achieved at approximately ≈38.63 rpm (≈2318.23 rpm), this is the maximum design value for the TsF-18 centrifuge.

Centrifuge TsF-18 at the Yu.A. Gagarin Central Industrial Complex

At ≈21.16 revolutions per minute (≈1269.74 revolutions per hour), the overload will reach ≈9 g, that is, the calculated value that is used today to train the cosmonaut's body when simulating an emergency situation arising from an AES orbit using an emergency ballistic trajectories.

At ≈15.77 revolutions per minute (≈946.41 revolutions per hour), the overload will reach ≈5 g, that is, the calculated value that is used today for routine training of the cosmonaut's body when simulating the launch of spacecraft into a low near-Earth orbit of satellites. At ≈7.05 rpm (≈423.24 rpm), the overload will reach ≈1 g.


Image above: The construction of a large centrifuge for Star City was carried out by the Swedish company ASEA. For Scandinavian machine builders, this was a fundamentally new technical task - traditionally they produced products of a much smaller size.

During the tests, three types of seats are used - regular seats, Kazbek-UN space seats and seats used in Russian Air Force fighters. While the astronaut is spinning, seven doctors constantly monitor his physical condition.

The construction of a centrifuge with a radius arm (in the form of a tubular truss) with a length of 18 meters required special industrial technologies. The most interesting unit of the apparatus is a huge support-and-guide plain bearing, on which the shoulder-radius of the TsF-18 rotates almost silently. In fact, the centrifuge is placed on a closed container, into which oil is pressed with the help of rotary pumps.

At the start, the centrifuge rises to the height of the oil film - only 40 microns, but this microscopic layer is enough to ensure smooth rotation at high speeds in a very economical mode.
