The world's first space hotel is expected to operate in 2027. Will hotels in space be safe?

According to the US "World Journal" report, an American space construction company recently announced that it will start construction of the world's first space hotel in low earth orbit in 2025, with theme restaurants, cinemas, spas and rooms that can accommodate up to 400 people. It is optimistic that it will start operation in 2027. ?

It is reported that this is called? Traveler? This space hotel was built by American Orbital Assembly Company (OAC).

Traveler? The outermost part will be attached with 24 modules, some of which are operated by the American Portal Foundation, providing air, water and electricity, astronaut accommodation and various infrastructures needed for long-term residence. Some of them will be sold to official space agencies and private enterprises for experiments or as training centers to Mars, and people can also buy modules for building private villas or high-end hotels.

It is reported that the Voyager space station will have more than 1 1600 square meters of habitable space. The total diameter is 200m (the International Space Station is 73m long and109m wide); The estimated mass is 2,465,438+08 metric tons (International Space Station: 465,438+09 tons); The estimated volume is 5 1, 104 cubic meters (the pressurized volume of the international space station is 9 15 cubic meters).

The Voyager Space Station is based on the legendary rocket scientist Werner. Feng? Braun's idea, he is one of the main commanders of NASA's Apollo program. This 200-meter-wide wheel-shaped habitat will rotate at a high enough angular velocity to create artificial gravity similar to the moon for its residents.

According to the information released by OAC, it orbits the earth once every 90 minutes? Traveler? It's a big ring (it can turn 16 times a day). How many stops are there? A ring? The artificial gravity produced by rotation is similar to the gravity level on the surface of the moon. ?

Although the space of the space capsule hotel is small, it does not affect its safety. The main material of space capsule products is flame-retardant ABS combined with high-strength steel frame, which can greatly reduce the fire risk of hotels. What needs to be pointed out in particular is that the Cang Hong Science and Technology Space Capsule adopts aviation-grade high-temperature resistant and flame-retardant ABS plate, which has better fire resistance. The capsule is equipped with a brush-off induction entry system. You can't enter the capsule unless you brush the matching door card designated by the hotel, which ensures the personal safety of the passengers. In addition, some well-equipped space capsule equipment is also equipped with emergency equipment such as smoke detectors and fire extinguishers, which adds a safety barrier to safety. In addition, Cang Hong Science and Technology Space Capsule products are also equipped with safes, which is a good guarantee for the crew's property. ?

So we don't need to worry about security. If you have the conditions, you can still experience it in the future.
