on MSNBC's Cosmic Log and elsewhere I started digging through my image & pdf files and found the following Lockheed document from mid-2006;<br /><br />Lockheed Atlas/CTV PDF....<br /><br />In hindsight it certainly applies to the Lockheed statements of this last week. 8 passengers etc. look to be right down Bigelows alley.<br /><br />I'm in the process of trying to visualize what Bigelow was saying about inflatable lunar bases that could be assembled at L1 and landed intact on irregular terrain. In his interview he stated that their regolith cover technique was going to be tried on a full sized BA-330 mockup, which makes one wonder if that's also the core for the base.<br /><br />Might have a 3D mockup once I get my head wraped around it a bit better.<br /><br />In the meantime the image below is of the Atlas/CTV launch stack enlarged a bit from the PDF. <div class="Discussion_UserSignature"> </div>
