Whether or not they’re compatible with the laws of physics, these sci-fi visions are a thrill to take in, inspiring a sense of wonder about the possibilities of the future and the technology that might already be present in the far-off reaches of outer space.
NASA Garbage Ship by Vaughan Ling
Concept artist Vaughan Ling envisions a ship for NASA that would collect and recycle garbage in space. He wrote to io9, “My fantasy concept is a system composed of the collector, a net dispenser and a recycling station in low earth orbit. Considering the launch cost can range from $ 4-5k per pound, not including the precious metals often used for satellite constrution, I thought that recycling could be a viable business one day. The collector would use nuclear power + highly efficient VASIMR rockets for propulsion and a detachable holding bay for dropping off at the station plus an arm similar to Canadarm on the space shuttle and ISS.”
