Stanford Torus rendering & question
I'm trying my hand at making some 3D models of classic space habitat
designs. My first effort can be seen he http://www.strout.net/info/science/s...enderings.html This is based on a NASA painting from the '70s (linked from the page above). But one thing puzzles me about the original painting: where are the radiators? Would a habitat of this size need to have substantial radiators to get rid of excess heat? (I'm assuming those purple things spread between the spokes within the mirror ring are solar panels.) Thanks, - Joe |
