Constructions Cranes at the Launch Site

https://space1usa.blogspot.com/2021/06/construction-cranes-at-launch-site.html

Compare these cranes to the spacex versions used for sharship construction over at Boca Chica Texas at Elon Musk's starport.

Above: red crane at the skyscraper top floor during construction.

Left: This large yellow crane is situated at the top of skyscraper floor 23 with all new construction. Blue safety netting is in place. When the skyscraper has completed its job, the crane is literally dismantled, piece by piece. This happens several ways, depending on the type of crane, but most cranes are made to be easily taken apart. This allows workers to detach pieces of the primary crane and slowly lower them back down to the ground.

A crane boom is a long fixed or hydraulic arm that is used to move large objects in construction. It bears most of the weight when positioning a load, and its length determines a crane's maximum reach. Crane booms take on a variety of roles and appearances depending on the type of crane.

Cranes are owned or rented. In general, small mobile cranes cost around $200 per day to rent and large operated cranes cost closer to $1,000 per day. Large tower cranes can cost around $15,000 to rent for a month.

Two cranes are visible at the top of this skyscraper. The cranes are weighted down and anchored to the skyscraper floor. When a floor is complete, the crane is dismantled and raised to the next higher floor. Skyscraper construction uses heavy steel beams,  hoisted by the cranes.

This is the rare Asian white elephant crane. It's not very often when one sees a crane painted white, including a white main tip head and a white hook block. At left, a second smaller crane is visible.

Construction Cranes at the Launch Site

REMNANTS OF A BYGONE ERA

Massive Industrial Construction Cranes at the Launch Site

These are typical construction cranes for this locality, used at the launch site and vicinity. From top to bottom, the largest MegaLift, Behemoth, and Dueling Matches.

— the space industry is rapidly changing and evolving with the winds of science and technology —

 (Showing several cranes out of many) Construction work is moving extremely fast in the launch site mega complex and is highly competitive. Construction crews are working around the clock. For night work, the cranes have FAA red and/or white warning light systems installed on top for low flying aircraft warning. Structural towers are steel constructed lattice work. The leftover massive construction cranes are available for lease.

Singularity Observatory 1,325-inch Telescope

Spectacular COSMIC Vision
Singularity Observatory:
Building a New Massive 1,325-inch Diameter Dialectric-Amped Telescope
Blazing stars and flashing lights go off as Singularity Observatory is once again celebrating the construction of a massive telescope, with a huge investment in astro parts, this time to make a second fully amped telescope. The new telescope is at 1,325-inches of diameter with robotic AI computerized GOTO machines that will be mounted high atop the open Skyway at the observatory in the vast wide open Pacific Ocean this Summer.

The highly precise telescope optics with forth ordered differential glass curves are custom crafted by a team of professional master opticians working in two countries and then double certified for a go or no go approval. The final completed telescope will be comprised of precision optical and machined parts from companies 1, 2, 3, and 4. This includes multiple special dialectric coatings designed to achieve 99% effectiveness, using from Physics - the constructive interference of light waves, making the overall telescope perform like a much larger diameter telescope. The overall exciting and breathtaking monstrosity of a telescope will be meticulously built - assembled and tested by Humanoido working in the Pacific Ocean.

The schedule for telescope completion depends on the receipt of all parts, and should be completed in the following month. Parts are expected to arrive in April and the telescope should be completed in May, ready for First Light in June. The previous telescope was put into operation last year (2018) at Singularity Observatory and is 1,800-inches in diameter which is 475-inches of diameter larger. Both ELTs, extremely large telescopes, are capable of incredible cosmic vision to the edge of the Universe and making spectacular discoveries. Stay tuned as we update the status on these two giant telescopes. These two massive twin telescopes will be in full operation during 2019 and ready for the Mars opposition in 2020.

The good news is that Mars oppositions are not over. In 2018, Mars approached the Earth at a super close distance of 35.8 million miles on July 31st. However, two years later in 2020, Mars will be only 38.6 million miles from the Earth, and once again very favorably located with a large looming size during the October 6th closest approach, ideal for superior telescope observations. Given the clarity of no global dust storms, the 1325 telescope will be ideal for Mars as it cuts through a smaller diameter Earth weather seeing cell, minimizing angular deflection of light rays, thus producing relative ultra sharp images of the finest clarity.

Space1 Rocket Lab Advancement

Rocket Lab Advances to a New Level
Space1 Rocket Lab has advanced to new levels this week with the introduction of new keeping technology to further streamline rocket development.

Exampling lab Source

A circle cycle of research, order placement, receiving, inventory, construction, testing, implementation is in effect.

As the EM Rocket is proven technology and returning tons of data, the Lab will switch over to the new Rocket X. Rocket X and the EM Rocket are the most advanced and sophisticated rockets ever created in the history of SPACE1. Both Rocket X and the EM Rocket are Safety Rockets invented by Humanoido and built at SPACE1 Technologies. The technology may be licensed to private space industry in the future.

Space1 Heavy Infrastructure

SPACE1 Heavy Infrastructure Construction

After the glorious move to new property in the Pacific Ocean and claim staking, work immediately began on the construction of a telescope astronomical observatory to support space missions, rocket launches, and the gamut private industry space program conducted by SPACE1.

Heavy work continues on SPACE1 infrastructure with specific machinery. The estimated timeline, more or less, is to finish the construction asap. Heavy work continues at a second site where rockets are manufactured, including the new Rocket X, and the rocket laboratory which conducts tests and research in various fields of aerospace and advanced technologies including machine intelligence, new life forms, and establishing a base of rocket technology inclusive of spaceports.

Space1 Pioneer Heavy Rocket Update

SPACE1 Pioneer Heavy Rocket Update
So far in 2018, SPACE1 has constructed a fleet of three basic Pioneer Heavy rockets with parts and supplies incoming for add ons consisting of crew quarters, NC fairings, parachute and/or hardened recovery devices, trinary flight computer, internal cameras and camcorders, rocket decking, external cams, and the possibility of an on board genetically supplemented, augmented, or modified human or other being conditioned for space travel. The first flight is expected to carry Humanoido's sports car as payload to map out the mass carry ratio of the rocket. This will help serve as a thermometer to lofting other payloads into space. The three rockets are currently in prime condition for unmanned launches and will, at a later date, have more devices installed for more functionality.

Space1 Chinese Rocket Construction Resumes

The Chinese rocket Stanton is a beam placed in position to support the rocket suspended in the air prior to launch. The beam is seen crossing the center of this photo, and holding up the rocket in the upwards air position on the launcher. Upon launch, the rocket is released and the entire weight (rocket + payload + fuel) forces the rocket to come crashing down to the launch pad base whereupon mechanical force from gravity and depression causes ignition activation and the rocket is launched. The Stanton is mechanically activated by physically removing it from the bottom rocket support plate, a process that occurs from a remote site to maintain safety from the powerful blast.

Resurrecting a Chinese Rocket
Space1 haulted the assembly of a Chinese rocket acquired from the Science Center due to some very strange valve and catchment designs not functioning as intended. After a week of work, it was decided to give the project a rest.

https://space1usa.blogspot.tw/2017/12/space1-china-rocket.html

Suddenly an idea was put into place. If American thinking could not resolve the Chinese designed rocket valve issues, why not add a new perspective - one of Chinese origins? Space1 invited a Chinese thinking engineer to look over the situation. In a time frame of only 30 minutes, the valve and catchment were disassembled and reassembled, and worked flawlessly! Space1 gives full credit to its Chinese origins engineer for resolving the rocket issues.

It's good Space1 did not give up the ship as it's a real learning experience. The rocket uses the most unusual launch system Space1 has ever seen. Instead of ignition at the base of the launch pad and the rocket rising upwards, the upwards mounted rocket is held high in the air by a single launch pad Stanton, then released, and gravity causes all its weight to come crashing down on the base of the launch pad where mechanical means then activate the rocket sending it skyward.

Work is now progressing on the recovery system - the timer and parachute are completed and being installed into the rocket. Completed are the four missile nukes that reside connected to the bottom of the rocket. Each missile has one fin vane protruding in an orientation 90 degrees orthogonal to the rocket body.

Space1 USS Pioneer Rocket

USS PIONEER ROCKET
Construction work begins around the clock. Crews are all on shifts to work ardently on  construction of Space1's new USS pioneer ROCKET. The extremely large flag ship is the largest rocket in going on five years of Space1 rocket fleet development history. It's the most powerful, capable of lofting hundreds of times more payload mass due to its new S1 engine and fuel.

Part of the construct process is parts acquisition, encompassing an inventory of thousands of parts that need to be received, tested, classified, inventoried, and incorporated into the rocket build. The illustration is a conceptual design for illustrative purposes only and may vary significantly from the actual flagship when completed.

Space1 Rocket Contracts

ANNOUNCEMENT
Space1 has announced the procurement of space contracts and permits for parts acquisition and the construction of a large 2018 USS Pioneer spaceship, designed to undergo construction and engineering overseas internationally. The USS Pioneer spaceship will take a new generation of space faring tourists into the exciting new realm of space. The USS Pioneer is the largest designed rocket since the beginning of Space1 Industries and represents going on five years of work and refinements.

Space1 Rocket Body

Ten raw rocket bodies are inventoried and being prepared for Space1 rockets and tests in 2017

Space1 has acquired materials and inventory stock items at the international Taiwan Space1 construction site for rolling massive rocket bodies.

Ten bodies; eight massive long barrel structures and two sleek air penetrating rocket bodies, are now completed in rolling their raw form, and now available for rocket construction throughout 2017. Ten units would appear to make ten rockets but this is not always the case. Space1 rockets have continued to become larger in diameter and longer in length. So it will be likely that rocket bodies will be welded together to achieve greater lengths.

A longer rocket can support more activities, including the Delta Wing Flyers, internalized Space Station, Astronauts, supplies, and payload like the Space Telescope, satellite, or other science experiments, tests, and machines. Much of this space inside current rockets is slated for Astronauts, telemetry, electronics, optics, cameras and imaging machines, instruments, control panels, and recovery equipment.

Rocket bodies must be light weight with strong welded seams. Rocket designs often include internal reinforcement and floors to minimize flexing. Divisions are included at key areas, such as the astronaut capsule, engine, ejection stage, and stations.
