ORBITAL
Loading
ORBITAL builds the systems required to move people, energy and materials beyond the atmosphere — and to keep them working once they are there.
Orbiter is the workhorse of the transfer fleet: crew and pressurised cargo between stations and staging orbits, refuelled in orbit, returned without refurbishment. Select a system.
Communication, navigation, observation and logistics spacecraft share one layer. A message routes around an occultation without the sender knowing it happened.
A modular station is a machine for keeping a small volume of atmosphere and water in a state a human body will tolerate, indefinitely. Explore the modules.
Private quarters, real darkness, a schedule the body can keep.
Fresh growth alongside stored supply. Meals people look forward to.
Two hours a day, non-negotiable, designed into the routine.
A call home that feels like a call, not a transmission.
Somewhere to be alone. It is a life-support requirement.
Shared space, shared meals, shared work. A crew, not occupants.
The first place off Earth where ORBITAL builds things that stay. At the south pole, within two kilometres of permanently shadowed ice.
Primary crewed base. Twelve residents, continuous.
Water and oxygen from the regolith. Power from the ridge. Most of what the base consumes never came from Earth.
Cargo, propellant, people and equipment moving continuously between Earth, the stations and the Moon. The trajectories above are flying now.
Forty tonnes of power, structure and processing equipment, pre-positioned six years before any crew. You cannot improvise on Mars. You can only have already decided.
Quarters, galley, common space. Daylight-spectrum lighting on a 24h 39m Mars cycle.
