Can you do this?

Hres whats going on your creating a space craft well we are. We only have 200,000$ and want to show NASA what you can do to send a human in space with this money share your designs this will be sent to NASA. Please Comment I beg you.

What's with the melodrama? Is this a hypothetical or are you serious? What makes you think people here would be dumb enough to surrender their ideas for this kind of thing to a complete stranger in a public forum?

Because I want to make sure that more humans go to space and if a design is made I can send it to a space agency with credit for every user who helped me.

Maybe a suctioned craft to stop you from flying everywhere?

Hmm for propulsion maybe a one staged vehicle launched from a plane will this work.

I think it's gonna cost more than 200,000$, you might get the fuel with that, but then again maybe not. More like billions of dollars. Then there's the math and science, engineering etc... A spaceship is a very complicated vehicle. Designing a spaceship is one thing but making sure it will work and be reliable in space is another.

But hey I'm always up for a challenge, so what do you need first? Do you have any ideas? Do we need to just design one and then let Nasa do the rest?

aeroman, trust me, NASA doesn't care. Remember, the military, which does include NASA, is actually about 40 years more advanced than the equipment they let the public see.

NASA knows people want to be in space. The government doesn't WANT us in space.

Your heart is in the right place, but all NASA will do is break it for you. Nevertheless, I give you a lot of credit for pursuing a great dream.

First we need to have the design and a fuel we can launch it from a jet.

Here's how spaceship one did it. Hopefully someone knows more about fuel because I don't. "Rocket fuel that is."

Maybe a glass tank.
Fuel could be a battery acid mixture.

Ok, yea, getting someone INTO space is half the battle. Getting back to earth is a big deal.

200k won't even get you close to being able to do this.

With that type of attitude it cannot be done sorry

We dont need to launch a rocket take that off the list.
Then we could for re-entry there are amazing heats so we need to have cooling chamber without a heat sourcing metal.

It needs to be a liquid solid gas hybrid metal to use.

Water turns into ice liquid and vapor can any metal type thing do this.

Is battery acid safe for fueling a spaceship That sounds a little scary.

just watch astronaut farmer. if billy bob thorton can do it anyone can. he just got all his stuff from an airplane bone yard. i mean anyone could have figured that out. i think he only spent 50grand on fuel.

I dont see why not it wouldnt rocket fuel can be dangerous.
The glass would absorb energy for the whole ship. Like a big battery

Shape a ball would fly well for a moon or mars mission.
Suction would work well to and fuel source is contained in the middle like a core and we live around the core with heat see its all glass and the computers energize on this source to.

ok one more thing before im done with this thread, dont you think nasa knows the lowest price they can send some one to space for. and lets suppose you do build this rocket what on earth makes you think the government would be willing to let you go through with this.
