Many ideas have come and gone, but Project Daedalus was a uniquely ambitious plan from the 1970s that never quite came to be.

Establishing a moon base will be critical for the U.S. in the new space race and building safe and cost-effective landing pads for spacecraft to touch down there will be key.
These pads will have to stop lunar dust and particles from sandblasting everything around them at more than 10,000 miles per hour as a rocket takes off or lands since there is no air to slow the rocket plume down.
However, how to build these landing pads is not so clear, as hauling materials and heavy equipment more than 230,000 miles into space quickly becomes cost prohibitive.
The animation describes the concept of launching a nuclear fusion reactor into orbit in sections for final assembly in space. The concept uses live footage of Pulsar’s existing hall effect plasma thrusters (HET) and hybrid rocket engines tested at RAF Westcott in March 2022. Pulsar is also developing LOX / Methane rocket motors to support this concept.
The ambitious proposal could help realize Elon Musk’s vision of SpaceX’s Starship as a “futuristic Noah’s Ark”.

Dreaming of an Earth-like environment on Mars.

The “extraterrestrial nature reserve”, or ETNR, would take the form of a greenhouse-like “forest bubble” designed to create an Earth-like ecosystem on the red planet. It would allow humans to experience a slice of home on Mars while also acting as a sustainable source of food and raw materials for early inhabitants.
