Public Business Plan: Phoenix Orbital

Vision: Pioneering the Future of Space Travel

Executive Summary

Phoenix Orbital intends to develop a revolutionary spacecraft designed to take passengers to the Moon and Mars with unprecedented ease and affordability. Our single-stage vehicle can handle the entire journey from takeoff to landing and back, using advanced automation and robotics to reduce costs and risks. The project requires a total investment of $5–6 billion, with the first unit expected to be ready in about 10 years. Once operational, it could generate $28.75 million to $47.5 million or more with government contracts in annual revenue from a fleet of 5 units, plus additional income from partnerships. We’re seeking $500 million to $1 billion in initial funding to bring this vision to life.

Project Overview

Our spacecraft is a compact, sleek vehicle built for both Earth and space environments. It seats 4 passengers and includes features for comfort during long trips, like areas for eating, sleeping, and staying healthy. The project also includes a 50,000 square meter facility for building and testing, with room for offices, living space, and future expansion to produce more units.

The facility will be set up in phases, starting with construction and followed by equipment installation. The spacecraft itself will be assembled mostly by robots, ensuring precision and efficiency. We plan to start building in Year 2 and have the first unit ready by Year 10.

Artificial Gravity System Breakdown: Revolutionizing Crew Comfort for Long-Duration Missions

Thank you for your interest in the Stealth MPD SSTO’s artificial gravity system—it’s a game-changer for human spaceflight, addressing the challenges of zero-gravity environments that have plagued missions since the Apollo era. This tethered counterweight design simulates gravity without compromising the craft’s compact, stealth-inspired hull, ensuring passengers on Mars (6.5-month round trip) or Moon (5–7 days) journeys remain healthy and productive. Powered by the 6 MW fusion-fission hybrid reactor and integrated with the ECLSS (Environmental Control and Life Support System), it provides a seamless, cost-effective solution. All costs are included in the $4.046B initial build, with innovations drawn from private partnerships like Lockheed Martin for tether materials, keeping us autonomous from NASA.

Overview: A Simple Yet Brilliant Gravity Solution

The artificial gravity system uses centrifugal force via a tethered rotation, where the 8 m crew cabin (now expanded for comfort) detaches from the main hull and spins like a bolas, generating 0.38 g (Mars-like) or adjustable to 1 g (Earth-like). Unlike bulky rotating rings (e.g., NASA’s Nautilus-X concepts), this lightweight design (700 kg) deploys in 30 seconds, fitting the 22 m craft’s profile. It complements the ECLSS by enabling natural fluid flow (e.g., water recycling) and reduces zero-G health risks by 60–80% (e.g., bone loss, fluid shifts). For investors, this means healthier crews, higher mission success rates (99.99% reliability), and a competitive edge in the $1T space tourism market—passengers can eat, sleep, and exercise normally, turning space travel into a luxury experience.

Key Benefits for Investors:

• Health & Efficiency: Cuts medical risks by 70%, boosting productivity and revenue ($28.75M–$47.5M/year for a 5-unit fleet).
• Safety: Redundant cables and AI control minimize failures, with a 10% cost margin for testing.
• Innovation Edge: Enables $500M–$1B military contracts for long-duration orbital ops, where gravity enhances crew performance.
• Cost: $60M total (1.5% of build budget), scalable to $10M/unit for future crafts.

How It Works: Step-by-Step

1. Deployment (30 Seconds, Post-Ascent):
   • Trigger: AI (quantum processor) initiates once in stable orbit (e.g., 200 km LEO, after 5-minute atmospheric phase).
   • Process: The 8 m crew cabin (2.5 tons, housing 4 passengers, ECLSS, and facilities) detaches via hydraulic locks (200 kg mechanism). A 50 m carbon-fiber tether (100 kg, retractable from the payload bay) extends, connecting to the main hull (53 tons). Auxiliary thrusters (200 N, 100 kg) fire briefly (0.01 m/s² impulse) to start rotation at 2 rpm around the center of mass (25 m radius).
   • ECLSS Integration: During deployment, ECLSS switches to gravity mode—passive flow in water recyclers (97% efficiency) and bioreactors (92% oxygen production), reducing power draw by 20% (from 2 MW to 1.6 MW).
   • Safety Check: AI monitors tether tension (0.001 ms updates), aborting if anomalies (>0.01% strain) occur.
2. Operation (During Transit):
   • Gravity Generation: Rotation creates centrifugal force, simulating 0.38 g in the cabin (adjustable to 1 g by varying speed, 1–4 rpm). Crew accesses facilities (bathroom, galley, sleeping quarters) naturally, with MREs and hydroponics (50% fresh produce) benefiting from gravity (no floating crumbs).
   • ECLSS Support: Gravity aids sedimentation in algae bioreactors (Chlorella/Spirulina, 200 kg) and hydroponics (150 kg), boosting efficiency (oxygen: 0.8 kg/person/day, water: 2 kg/person/day). Sabatier reactor (100 kg) processes CO2 for oxygen, with ISRU extending supplies on Mars.
   • Duration: Continuous during Mars transit (3–3.2 months one way), using
   • Monitoring: AI tracks rotation stability, with manual override console (50 kg) for emergencies.
3. Retraction (30 Seconds, Pre-Landing/Reentry):
   • Trigger: AI halts rotation with thrusters (reverse impulse), retracts tether (winch mechanism, 100 kg), and reattaches cabin via magnetic docks (100 kg).
   • ECLSS Transition: System switches to zero-G mode, with harnesses (50 kg) for brief periods (e.g., 10-minute reentry).
   • Safety Check: AI verifies dock integrity before descent, with redundant cables (2 units) as backup.

This step-by-step process ensures smooth transitions, with the tethered system adding minimal complexity while maximizing benefits.

Highlights and Features

• Features:
  • Deployment Speed: 30 seconds, AI-controlled with manual override.
  • Adjustable Gravity: 0.38 g (Mars) to 1 g (Earth), 2–4 rpm, via thrusters (200 N).
  • Safety: Redundant cables (200 kg total), AI tension monitoring, emergency detach with parachutes.
  • Integration: Tether deploys from payload bay (2 m × 1 m), compatible with retractable wings (15 m expanded, 8 m retracted).
  • ECLSS Limited Info: Includes algae bioreactors (200 kg, 92% oxygen), hydroponics (150 kg, 50% food), and Sabatier (100 kg for ISRU), optimized for gravity (passive flow, no harnesses).

Innovations Needed

To realize this, we focus on in-house R&D innovations and private R&D (Lockheed Martin for tether mechanisms, Helicity Space for rotation dynamics) for breakthroughs by 2035–2040:
