Re: BigelowOrion "version TWO" + "BigelowDragon" & "BigelowACTS&quot

.

five months ago I've developed the idea of a "BigelowOrion" (a smaller Orion capsule with a Bigelow-like inflatable module to have MUCH MORE internal space and LESS total weight) published here:

http://www.gaetanomarano.it/articles/01 … Orion.html

the only problem of my first version was the (complex) two-modules design, so, I've developed a new and simpler "version TWO" of my "BigelowOrion" built around a SINGLE module:

http://www.gaetanomarano.it/articles/030versionTWO.html

in my new article you can see also the SpaceX "BigelowDragon" and the ESA/RSA "BigelowACTS" versions and an early "concept" of lunar (or earth) space station built with these (simpler) BigelowOrion modules
