CHAPTER 1 : INTRODUCTION[

In this chapter, we are going to discuss our Space Settlement (Colony). About the name of our colony,
advanced features, the location of our settlement & Materials used to construct our colony.
1.1 WHAT IS SPACE COLONY?

According to us a space settlement is a human habitation beyond earth which would provide suitable living
conditions for the survival of our race. But Generally, Space colony are also called space colonization, or we
can say splitting the beauty of humans into fabulous space. It also helps us to expand then research of human
beings further into space. It also helps us to carry life for our future generation and continue the life race of
humans.

Till now we have not started space colonization but let us hope we can in the future. Our technology is much
improved so that there are many chances for us to do space settlement in our future by our next generation.

We get raised so many questions when we hear the word why space settlement is needed.

1.2 WHY DO WE NEED SPACE COLONY:

1. Overpopulation and Resource Scarcity: Earth's population is continually growing, and there is increasing
pressure on available resources. Space colonies could provide additional living space and access to
extraterrestrial resources.

2. Environmental Sustainability: Establishing colonies in space could help alleviate the environmental impact
of human activities on Earth. It offers an opportunity to develop sustainable practices without depleting the
planet's resources.

3. Scientific Exploration: Space colonies can serve as bases for scientific research and exploration of
celestial bodies. They provide a unique vantage point for studying space phenomena and conducting
experiments in microgravity environments.

1.3 WHAT ARE THE BENIFITS OF A SPACE COLONY:

1. Shifting the overpopulated population from the earth to the space


2. Exploring the horizons and the edges of the universe
3. Restoring the resources on the earth
4. Prevention of the extension of humanity and the life on the earth
5. Allows us to access the resources in the space
6. Advancement of the technology of the space and the earth

1.4 LIMITATIONS OF SPACE COLONY


Establishing a space colony poses numerous challenges, ranging from technological and engineering
obstacles to physiological and psychological considerations. Here are some of the key problems that need to
be addressed:

1. Air and Water Recycling: Developing efficient systems to recycle and renew air and water resources within
a closed environment is crucial for long-term habitation.

2. Food Production: Creating sustainable and efficient methods for growing food in space is essential for the
colony's self-sufficiency.

3. Shielding: Protecting inhabitants from harmful cosmic and solar radiation requires innovative shielding
solutions for both the habitat structure and spacesuit design.

4. Health Concerns: Prolonged exposure to microgravity can have adverse effects on human health, including
bone density loss and muscle atrophy. Countermeasures need to be developed to mitigate these effects.

5. Rotational Systems: Implementing rotating structures to simulate gravity requires engineering solutions to
manage structural integrity, energy requirements, and the potential for motion sickness among inhabitants.

6. Cost and Efficiency: Developing cost-effective and reliable transportation systems for ferrying people and
resources between Earth and the space colony is crucial.

7. Isolation and Confinement: Dealing with the psychological impacts of isolation, confinement, and the
distance from Earth on the mental well-being of the inhabitants.

8. Ecosystem Balance: Maintaining a balanced and sustainable ecosystem within the colony, including waste
management and ecological considerations.
Technological Innovation:

9. Advanced Technologies: Continued research and development in various fields, such as materials
science, energy production, and automation, to enable the construction and functioning of a space colony.

1.5 NAME OF THE PROJECT:

We have decided on the name “ONISM” for our space colony.

The meaning of the name “ONISM” is the awareness of how little of the world you will see
1.6 FEATURES OF THE PROJECT:

We are keeping the following features to our Space Colony.

Super Structure

Provisions

Wireless Technologies

Artificial Intelligence

Robots

Lot of Engineering principals

Advanced Communication Systems etc.

1.7 LOCATION OF OUR SETTLEMENT:

Space is nothing but a vacuum. A vacuum is a volume of empty of matter or in which the pressure is so low that any
particle or Object in the space do not affect by any process being carried. So, in this vast area (1KM above Ground level
to infinite distance), location of the settlement can be chosen based on two criteria’s,

Earth orbits

Lagrange Points

For the location of our settlement, we are taking the option Lagrange Points. In that Lagrange points we are choosing
our location as the Lagrange point 5 or simply L5.

We have chosen the point L5 because,

It is the point where there is low risk of space debris loke asteroids, meteoroids, etc and there relatively proximity to the
earth.

The L5 point is a point where you can get maximum sunlight (more than L4) for the residents of the space colony.
Because you will be in the topmost point of all Lagrange points.

The L4 and L5 are in such a way that they are equidistant from both earth and the moon and they form an equilateral
triangle between the celestial bodies with 60-degree angle.

In this location can have interplanetary dust which is a problem to overcome. Thankfully this can be overcome by a few
different methods
CHAPTER 2 : STRUCTURAL ENGINEERING

2.1 BASIC SHAPES:

To construct any space colony, we need some specific shapes they are sphere, cylinder, torus and dumbbell.

The following is reasons on why we use sphere, cylinder, torus and only some other shapes:
Cylinder: A rotating cylinder that provides living space on the inner surface. This shape allows for large
habitats with a controlled, gravity-like environment.
The area of the central cylinder is given by 6911 square km.
The area of the central hub is given by 1725 square km.
The area of the docking port is given by 15 sq.km
Torus: A torus (doughnut-shaped) habitat that rotates to create artificial gravity on the inner surface. This
design allows for a mix of residential and agricultural areas.

The area of 4 tori in the settlement is given by 3290815000 square feets.

Sphere: A large rotating sphere that creates artificial gravity on its interior. This design is compact and efficient
in terms of structural integrity.

The area of 4 spheres in the settlement is 750 square km

2.2 CHOOSING AMONG THE BASIC SPACES:

Each of the geometric shapes you mentioned—torus, sphere, cylinder, and dumbbell—has unique properties and
applications. Here are some benefits and characteristics associated with each shape:

1. Torus:

Efficient Space Utilization: The torus, or a doughnut shape, provides efficient use of space. It has a large surface area
relative to its volume, making it suitable for applications where space optimization is crucial.

Structural Stability: The torus is inherently stable due to its continuous and symmetrical shape. This stability makes it
suitable for certain architectural designs and engineering applications

2. Sphere:

Uniform Stress Distribution: Spheres distribute stress uniformly across their surface, making them ideal for
applications where pressure needs to be evenly distributed. This property is crucial in engineering, such as for pressure
vessels.

Maximum Volume with Minimum Surface Area: Spheres maximize volume for a given surface area, which is
advantageous in containers where maximizing internal space is essential.

3. Cylinder:

Storage Efficiency: Cylinders are often used for storage due to their efficiency in utilizing space. Examples include
tanks, pipes, and containers.

Mechanical Stability: Cylinders offer stability in one direction, making them suitable for structural applications like
columns and beams. They also resist bending forces well.

4. dumbbell:
Variable Mass Distribution: The dumbbell shape allows for variations in mass distribution, making it versatile for use in
sports equipment, fitness tools, and certain mechanical applications.

Balanced Design: The symmetrical design of a dumbbell ensures balanced weight distribution, which is essential for
exercises and physical training. It provides stability during movements.

Overall Considerations:

Versatility: The versatility of these shapes allows for their use in various industries, from architecture to engineering,
and even in the design of everyday objects.

Aesthetic Appeal: Each shape can have aesthetic appeal, influencing design choices in architecture and art.

Functional Design: The choice of shape depends on the specific function and requirements of the application. For
example, a torus might be suitable for a space station design, while a sphere is optimal for a pressure vessel.

Understanding the benefits of each shape helps in choosing the most appropriate one for a given application, whether
it's structural stability, space optimization, or functional design.

Onism shall have 28,000 full-time residents and the other 7,000 people as temporary resident ‘s. i.e., traders, official
businesspeople, guests, people who come for vacations from Earth, etc. Residential torus A shall contain 15,000 people,
out of which, 3,500 are temporary. Similarly, Residential torus B shall contain the other 20,000 people, out of which,
5,500 are temporary. Keeping all this in mind, the total population in is 35,000 people.

2.3 DIMIENSIONS:

Our project finished should look like this

2.4 STEPS OF CONSTRUCTION:


Onism is going to constructed in the following sequence:

First, base camps on Moon and Mars will be constructed to provide the Lunar and Martian mineral necessary for the
construction of ONISM.

DETAILS OF THE PARTS MENTIONED ABOVE:


Residential torus A and B: This torus is used for the living purpose for the people and the children in the space colony. In
this there will be shopping malls, parks, groceries shops, hospitals, medical shops, schools, etc. In this space settlement
24 thousand people (about the seating capacity of Madison Square Garden) are going to live.

Agricultural tours: In this torus we will grow the crops which are used for the citizens in our space colony. These crops
will also be exported to the earth also. These crops will also be sent to the hotels in our space colony. By this also we can
generate the economy, and the money which we have invested in the construction of the space colony. We will do the
farming by methods like hydroponics etc.

Industrial torus: In this torus there will be the industries which will make the major economy and we will get most of the
money which we have kept for the construction of the space colony. In this there will be electrical devices Manufacture
Company, medical manufacture company, auto mobile company, food processing company, etc.

Entertainment: In this part of the space colony there will be machines for playing games and some physical games like
virtual reality games, zero gravity games, gymnastics, golf, etc.

We have also concentrated on the games because these will calm the frustration of the citizens in the space settlement.

Research and development: In this part of the space settlement, we carry out research of asteroids, and developing the
features of the space colony. By this we can upgrade the features of our space colony.

Docking sections: In this part of our space settlement the spacecraft will dock, and they will unload and load the goods
and the people will also come and go from the space colony and here there will be some small shops.

Central hub: In this Part of the space settlement, we will control and monitor the space settlement, and the constitution
of the space colony will also be controlled from here. From here we will also monitor the industries and the agriculture
of the space colony. Here there will be a thruster also for the rotation and the movement of the space colony.

2.6 ROTATING AND NON-ROTATING SECTIONS:

We should create gravity in our space colony for the people who are living here. Gravity plays an important role in our
space colony. Gravity will hold the people on the ground.

The whole colony is going to rotate 2.387671627 rpm

2.7 MORE ABOUT DOCKING PORTS:

Docking port helps in transportation in and out through the space colony of people, goods, minerals & materials. They
are one of the main parts of the space colony. Without the docking port we cannot make a proper space colony as it is
the only way to get in and out of the settlement.

In our ONISM, there will be the thrusting section at the Lower Docking Section. We will convert the lower docking area
to the lower thrusting section anytime, and anywhere.
It is the place where superficial actions including transportation and other activities are done.

2.8 MATERIALS REQUIRED:

Basically, on earth we are constructing the houses, buildings, villas, etc… with cement, bricks, sand, water, construction
chips but we cannot construct a space colony with these materials. So, we will use some special construction materials
to build our colony.

2.9 THRUSTERS AND BOOSTERS

VASIMR (Variable Specific Impulse Magneto plasma Rocket) is a type of advanced


electric propulsion system that has been developed for potential use in space missions.
Here are some key features and characteristics of VASIMR thrusters:

1. Electric Propulsion: VASIMR thrusters belong to the category of electric propulsion


systems. They use electrical energy to ionize and heat plasma and then expel it at high
velocities to produce thrust.

2. Variable Specific Impulse: One notable feature of VASIMR is its ability to vary its
specific impulse. Specific impulse is a measure of the efficiency of a propulsion system.
By adjusting the energy and power input to the thruster, VASIMR can control its specific
impulse and adapt to different mission requirements.

3. Magneto plasma and Magnetic Field: VASIMR utilizes the principles of magneto
plasma, where a gas is ionized and transformed into a plasma by the application of a
strong magnetic field. The plasma is then heated and accelerated to generate thrust.
4. High Exhaust Velocities: VASIMR thrusters can achieve high exhaust velocities
compared to traditional chemical rockets, which allows for faster and more efficient
propulsion over long distances.

5. Proposed Applications: VASIMR technology has been suggested for a range of space
missions, including satellite repositioning, orbit maintenance, and deep space
exploration. Its high efficiency and long-duration operation make it suitable for missions
requiring sustained thrust.

6. Current Technology Readiness Level (TRL): While VASIMR has shown promise in
laboratory testing and ground-based demonstrations, its full-scale implementation and
deployment for space missions are still in progress. Ongoing research and development
are focused on improving technology and addressing the engineering challenges
associated with its integration into operational spacecraft.

It's important to note that VASIMR technology is still evolving, and its practical
application in space missions will depend on further advancements, validation, and
integration into future spacecraft designs.
CHAPTER 3: HUMAN NEEDS IN SPACE

In this chapter, students write on Space, its characteristics and on introductory content on
his/her Space Project theme (Colony/Hotel/Asteroid Mining).
It mandatory to cover mainly below specified four Topic

3.1 GRAVITY:
Gravity plays a main role in human life. It holds us on the surface of earth gravity is the weakest
force, but it is the important force for the evolution of universe.

CONSEQUNS ORGUSIMS FACE WITH OUT GRAVITY

In the absence of gravity, Organsimis faco various Challenges.

Microgravity experienced in space, affect the musculoskeletal system Causing bone loss.

It includes in heart muscle mass and change in volume distribution

In microgravity environment, such as space. may experience muscle deconditioning due to


reduced use and resistance. This may read muscle atrophy, where muscles cose mass and
strength

Heres how we are going make gravity

Spacecraft Rotation:

A spacecraft could be designed to rotate, creating artificial gravity Example: Some science
fiction spacecraft designs incorporate rotation to address the effects of microgravity.
The space colony is going to have 9.8g’s

3.2 FOOD:

Food is a substance that helps us get energy. Food helps the functioning of the human body.
heance, we need food to live in space but there is no food for us in space. So, we need to make
food in space

Hydroponics:
Hydroponics is a method of growing plants without soil, where the plants receive all the
necessary nutrients through a nutrient-rich water solution. Instead of growing in traditional soil,
hydroponic systems provide physical support to the plants while their roots are suspended or
submerged in the nutrient solution.

In hydroponics, various techniques and setups can be used, but they all share the common
principle of delivering the essential elements required for plant growth directly to the plant roots
in a controlled environment. Some key components and characteristics of hydroponic systems
include:

1. Growing Medium: Instead of soil, hydroponics utilizes different types of inert growing media to
provide mechanical support to the plants. Some examples include expanded clay pellets,
rockwool, perlite, vermiculite, and coconut coir. The growing medium anchors the roots and
allows for the passage of water, oxygen, and nutrients.

2. Nutrient Solution: A precisely balanced mixture of mineral nutrients is dissolved in water to


create the nutrient solution. This solution contains all the essential elements required for plant
growth, including macronutrients (such as nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium) and
micronutrients (such as iron, manganese, and zinc). The nutrient solution is regularly supplied to
the plant roots, ensuring optimal nutrient uptake.

3. Water and Oxygen: Hydroponics systems provide a continuous supply of oxygen and water to
the roots. Oxygen is essential for root respiration, and water is necessary to deliver nutrients.
Oxygenation is achieved through various methods like using air pumps or oxygenating the
nutrient solution. Proper water management is crucial to prevent waterlogging and promote
oxygenation.

4. Control and Monitoring: Hydroponic systems often incorporate methods to monitor and control
environmental factors such as pH levels, nutrient concentration, temperature, and lighting. This
control allows for precise adjustments to optimize plant growth and productivity.

5. Advantages of Hydroponics: Hydroponics offers several advantages over traditional soil-based


cultivation. These include faster plant growth rates, higher crop yields, reduced water usage,
efficient nutrient uptake by plants, and the ability to grow plants in environments with limited
access to arable land or adverse soil conditions.

Hydroponics has been applied in various contexts, ranging from small-scale setups in home
gardens to large-scale commercial operations. It provides a flexible and sustainable approach to
agriculture while offering the potential for year-round cultivation and food production in
controlled environments.
3.3 WATER:
Methane for Methane-Oxygen Combustion:

Methane-oxygen combustion is a chemical reaction that occurs when methane (CH4) and oxygen
(O2) react in the presence of heat or a spark. The reaction can be represented by the following
balanced equation:

CH4 + 2O2 -> CO2 + 2H2O + heat


In this reaction, methane (a hydrocarbon) is the fuel, and oxygen acts as the oxidizer. The
reaction produces carbon dioxide (CO2) and water (H2O) as products, along with the release of
heat.

Methane-oxygen combustion is an exothermic reaction, meaning it releases heat energy. This reaction is commonly used
in various applications, including:

1. Energy Production: The combustion of methane is an essential process in natural gas power plants, where methane is
burned to produce high-temperature gases that drive turbines and generate electricity.

2. Heating and Cooking: In households and industrial settings, methane gas is commonly used as a fuel for heating and
cooking appliances, such as gas stoves and furnaces.

3. Internal Combustion Engines: Methane can be used as a fuel in internal combustion engines, such as those found in
vehicles. When methane reacts with oxygen in the engine's combustion chamber, it releases energy, which is converted
into mechanical work to power the engine.

4. Space Exploration: Methane-oxygen combustion has also been studied as a potential propellant for rocket engines.
Methane offers advantages in terms of energy density, storability, and potential for in-situ resource utilization on other
planets or celestial bodies.

It's important to note that the combustion of methane and other fossil fuels produces carbon dioxide, a greenhouse gas
that contributes to climate change. Therefore, efforts are being made to develop more environmentally friendly
alternatives and to explore methods for capturing and reducing the carbon emissions associated with combustion
processes.

3.4 OXYGEN AND ATMOSSPHERE:

Oxygen and hydrogen production:


1. Electrolysis:
 Electrolysis Cell: A container with two electrodes (usually made of a conductive
material like graphite or platinum) immersed in water or an electrolyte solution.
 Power Source: A direct current (DC) power supply is needed to drive the
electrolysis reaction.
2. Electrolyte:
 Pure water is a poor conductor of electricity. Therefore, an electrolyte (such as
potassium hydroxide, KOH) is often added to enhance conductivity.
3. Efficiency:
 Electrolysis for hydrogen and oxygen production is not 100% efficient. Factors like
overpotential, side reactions, and heat losses can affect overall efficiency.
4. Applications:
 Hydrogen and oxygen produced through electrolysis can be used for various
applications, including fuel cells, industrial processes, and as a clean energy
carrier.
5. Environmental Considerations:
 Electrolysis can be a clean method of producing hydrogen if the electricity used is
generated from renewable sources, such as solar or wind power.
It's important to note that electrolysis is just one method for producing hydrogen and
oxygen. Other methods, such as steam methane reforming or water-gas shift reactions,
are also used on an industrial scale. The choice of method depends on factors like cost,
energy source availability, and intended applications.

Microbial Systems for Waste Recycling:

Employ microbial systems to break down organic waste, producing methane (CH4) as a
byproduct. Methane can be further processed for energy or other applications.
Plants for Oxygen Production:

Utilise plants in a controlled environment to perform photosynthesis, generating oxygen as a


byproduct. This biological process mimics Earth's natural oxygen cycle.

Carbon Dioxide Scrubbing:

Implement systems to capture and scrub carbon dioxide (CO2) from the air. This captured CO2
can then be used in processes like electrolysis or chemical reactions to produce additional
oxygen.

Closed-Loop Life Support System:

Utilize gases such as oxygen and carbon dioxide within the colony's environment to create a closed-
loop system that supports human life. Oxygen produced through electrolysis or other methods can be
circulated for breathing, while carbon dioxide exhaled by inhabitants can be captured and processed
to regenerate oxygen. This closed-loop system helps maintain a sustainable and self-sufficient
environment, reducing dependence on external oxygen supplies and minimizing waste.
3.5 TEMPARATURE:

To live we need a perfect temperature that can be predictable. In our Onism, we are giving the
artificial temperature that can be suitable to live. The temperature in our space settlement will
give the ultimate experience than the other settlements and the earth.

We will maintain the temperature from the

Central hub. Controlling the temperature inside the space colony means controlling
the humidity, greenhouse gases and the inbuilt heaters. By changing the temperature, we can
get the same feeling as we are living on the earth. To controlling all these temperatures, we
will use the systems called HVAC SYSTEM…

For maintaining the temperature, we will increase the temperature gradually from
early morning to the afternoon and we will decrease the temperature from afternoon to mid
night. The temperature on the day time will be higher when compared to the night times. See
this table for the maintaining the temperature day by day.

We are giving the default temperatures day by day as per the weeks in out settlement.
But residents can change their own temperature only in their houses with the high security of
Biometric Authentication.
3.6 DAY, NIGHT AND SEASONS:
To complete our daily life, we need a perfect climate in our environment. So that we need
regular day and nights. We are used to the day and night system on earth if we change the the
day and night it will take some time to get used to it
So, days, nights and seasons in the space colony is going to be same as on the earth.
In a space colony situated far from any celestial bodies, the experience of day and night is
unique and differs from the familiar cycle observed on Earth. Here's an explanation of how day
and night are perceived in a space colony:

1. Artificial Lighting: In the absence of natural sunlight, space colonies rely heavily on artificial
lighting systems to provide illumination. Powerful lighting fixtures strategically placed
throughout the colony simulate daylight, creating a consistent brightness level. This artificial
lighting ensures visibility and allows for regular activities to take place without the need for
darkness.

2. Time Zones and Schedules: Like on Earth, space colonies may adopt time zones and
schedules to maintain a sense of routine and synchronization. These divisions help regulate
sleep patterns, work shifts, and recreational activities, ensuring that residents can follow a
structured daily life within the colony.

3. Astronomical Simulations: To offer residents a sense of connection to the outside universe,


simulations of celestial bodies and their movements are often created. These simulations can
be displayed on screens or projected within communal spaces, mimicking the appearance of
stars, planets, and galaxies. These simulations help recreate a simulated day and night cycle,
offering residents a gentle reminder of the passage of time.

4. Artificial Skylights: To introduce an ambient variation in lighting, space colonies may feature
artificial skylights or "windows" that simulate natural phenomena. These skylights can project

7.2 SCHEDULE
Determining the schedule or the timetable is a very important task to pre-plan our
construction. The following is an approximate illustration for the timetable of the
construction process of the settlement.

After completing all the primary works like finalizing the project, getting the
approval, appointing the construction team, collecting the funds (capital) and raw
materials etc., the construction shall be started by 2026.
2026-2027: - the construction will be initialized by setting up base camps on the
Moon and Mars. The labs and research centers in these bases will start working
and extracting minerals from the surrounding.
2028-2050: - Using the already available raw materials as well as the resources
extracted from Moon and Mars, the construction of the main settlement will be
taken out in the order mentioned in the construction sequence.
2051-2056: - The final change to the settlement will be given by building the
complete interior, setting up all industries and other buildings, deploying drones
and robots, initializing the growth of plants in the agricultural tori.
People and animals will then be brought into ONISM, and life will take its place.
Finally the construction of the Onism will be done within 30 years of the
span.
