The largest space station in history.

Blue Origin has presented together with Boeing, Sierra Space, Redwire Space and Genesis Engineering Solutions its Space Station project, the Orbital Reef and will be the largest space station in history.


The station will be made up of various modules and each one will have a different function, the crews will arrive at the station aboard the boeing Starliner ship and the food and other equipment will be sent using the Starliner version of cargo boeing and the futuristic Dream Chaser by Sierra Space.




The larger modules will be launched using the powerful New Glenn rocket and which will be capable of placing 45 tons in low Earth orbit, what is the problem with all this, well since Boeing's Starliner continues to accumulate delays and problems after its one and only failed orbital attempt, the Dream Chaser has not even flown into space and the new blend as you have already seen is not even built.


This is a project that is expected to finish in 2030 so there is enough time for it, if this is the case and the spaceships and especially the New blend end up being a reality, the main modules of Orbita Reef could be even larger than the main modules of the international space station, thanks to the great load capacity that New Blend will have, in addition the station will have inflatable modules so that the internal volume will surely be higher than that of the international space station.

The station will be able to house up to 10 astronauts inside and please see what the one-person vehicles will be like to carry out the spacewalks outside the ones they look like out of a space movie from the 60s, it has its charm, I hope and wish that everything They are proposing to go ahead and put all that technology in space because they have the money and the will to do it.

It seems that also its engines, which is the cornerstone of an aerospace company, are about to see the light, finally after years and years of delay, thanks to the company ULA (United Launch Alliance), the main rocket company hired by the nasa had reached an agreement years ago with Blue Origin so that its Vulcan rocket would be propelled with them, but finally this month of October new tests with these engines have been seen and Tonny Bruno president of ULA has confirmed in a recent interview that he hopes have the V4s are very soon and debut already in the first half of next year aboard the powerful Vulcan rocket.
