NEW YORK, NY / AGILITYPR.NEWS / June 08, 2021 / Completion Will Achieve Critical Milestone in Construction of the World’s First Low Gravity Hotel in Space
Who:
Orbital Assembly Corporation, the first large-scale space construction company, and a leader in industrial space development enabling humanity to work play and thrive in the space ecosystem.
What:
Will highlight the Demonstrator Structural Truss Assembly Robot (DSTAR) fabricator, a new robotic automated assembly system technology designed to build the world’s first space hotel with lunar levels of gravity moon.
Orbital Assembly develops semi-autonomous robotic machines capable of building and assembling large structures in space quickly, and efficiently for the Voyager space station.
When: Open 6 P.M. Saturday, June 19th Program begins 6:45 P.M.
Where: 13052b Dahlia St, Fontana, CA 92337 (Video will be available after the event)
Note to reporters: Media must R.S.V.P. in advance for admission
Background
Gravity is essential for comfortable long-term habitation in space, so this project has overcome this barrier by producing its own simulated gravity. In addition to space hotel guests, the hotel is designed to welcome national space agencies conducting low-gravity research.
Once complete, guests will experience a string of luxury amenities like a health spa, gyms, themed restaurants, concert venues, Earth-viewing lounges and bars and accommodations for up to 400 people.
Following the successful DSTAR test, the upcoming demonstration mission will launch a flight version of DSTAR, the Prototype Structural Truss Assembly Robot (‘PSTAR’), in low Earth orbit. It will assemble 52 meters (156 ft.) of truss in a circle, creating a ‘ring’. Four on-board propulsion modules will ‘spin’ the ring, to demonstrate Orbital Assembly’s construction capabilities with the PSTAR and delivering, for the first time ever, lunar levels of artificial gravity.”
