cryogenic Florine as a propellant in the Cislurnar economy

cryogenic Florine as a propellant in the Cislurnar economy

There is Fluorine in compounds and minerals on the Lunar surface, possibly it would be safe to use in deep space as a propellant?

Blue Origins Hybrid Wet and Dry New Glenn Skylab Station

new_glenn_payload_user’s_guide_rev_c

 

(A)The proposed New Glenn Skylab would have a second stage wet lab with a dry lab space station making up the balance of allowable dry mass including the payload fairing, Under the payload fairing is only a docking port and a Space Shuttle Canada arm.

The available dry mass is both the wet lab and dry lab injected to just outside the Van Allen belts.

(B)The amount of propellant in the wet lab second stage is reduced or the volume of the second stage propellant tanks are reduced in favor of a larger dry lab. This stays in LEO and a second dedicated wet lab docks with it and sends it into an HEO. Possibly engines reduced to 1.

The second stage is 16.1 meters and 7 meters in diameter the proposed PLF is 29.9 Meters for a total of 47 meters. We propose not to use the PLF as a payload shroud but as a deployed solar array***. (there is no payload) This most likely means we can extend the Second stage dry lab to more than 16.1 meters.***This the concept we call Rappolee flowers        rappolee-flowers-payload-fairing-deployed-arbitrarily-large-structures/

The New Glenn can do 45,000 Kg to LEO we propose a wet lab/Drylab Hybrid of differing configurations. The dry mass of the second stage is with the PLF  no doubt less than this and there are likely restrictions on the maximum height of the New Glenn, we think therefore that we have leeway to have a number of docking ports and hatches between the propellant tanks of both the dry and wet lab tanks. If the trades favor a dry lab then we need to explore the third idea.

(C) (a)A New Glenn lofts a second stage that is itself a wet lab that docks with the New Glenn skylab in orbit. It docks with the NG skylab and takes us out to HEO and beyond the Van Allen belts. As suggested it remains docked for outfitting as a wet lab. This wet lab is a tanker and as such could also sport a PLF Rappolee flower. (C)(b)Lastly, we have blogged about this many times before and that is what is the dry mass of the New Glenn first stage? without a payload can it do an SSTO mission? BFR and New Glenn first stages cry out for this final reuse after the economic life is over! A first stage wet lab to SSTO only needs a docking mechanism and as much dry mass as we can be given. Would we have an enough SSTO dry mass for a Rappolee flower PLF on a first stage to orbit?

 

The end product is a Blue Origin New Glenn based space station with a two-second stage based dry and wet lab and a used First stage SSTO wet lab. Possibly remove some engines? Possibly add SRB or CBC to core stage?

 

 

 

Mars Polar propellant depot and Mars point to point propellant transfer

The Mars poles may enable faster timescales for propellant production, Might enable easier access to Ice feedstocks so what would be the trades for using BFR to transport the propellant to other parts of Mars?

You are Hopping the BFR from the poles to the rest of Mars so its pace of polar propellant production Minus the propellant used to Hop the BFR to another location. Our power source is assumed to be the nuclear powered E Sleds from the previous post.

 

 

E Sled as Planetary polar rover

E sled as Mars polar rover

We propose a Tesla motor derived E Sled as a Mars Polar Lander. SpaceX might be the customer that resales the Data collected to a NASA anchor tenant. A Tesla motor would make for a large rover but most likely will need an RTG/Sterling and battery.

This system might be made to have buoyancy for Titan?  (Titan tours Duck E Sled 🙂 ) This would need some thoughts on characterizing the cryogenic Titan dunes to inform us as to interactions with the E Sled tractor system

 

This system might work on Lunar or Mercury Polar craters?

This system would need to be modified for rougher surfaces and cryogenic conditions

We need trades with a kilo power or decadel survey small fission reactor and the proposed RTG/Sterling battery idea. Any of the three systems above if flown represents a breakthrough for all other future missions

An E Sled sidecar could carry INsight type geology instruments to be dropped off and retrieved and redeployed

Next Post; The Poles of Mars as a fuel depot &  point to point fuel transfer! What are the maths for this idea?

We are citizens for expanding the University of California system

I wrote the powerpoint below some time ago, I think the idea of doing another round of voter-approved regenerative medicine bonds could fund the establishment of 3 or 4 graduate only UC
Campuses and their buildings that would surround the regenerative medicine campus owned by the new UC campuses would be amortized by federal research grants

I believe that in my old powerpoint I was advocating that these new medical research UC campuses would have medical schools. These should be free of tuition for those students who agree to practice in California under a number of conditions IE you must take Medi-Cal and Medicare patients.

Idea! A new round of Institute of Regenerative Medicine bonds could be repaid with UC  federal NIH research funding IE UC would own those buildings.

Over the following decades, Undergraduate programs would follow and expand these campuses

 

 

we are citizens for expanding the university of

New ideas post my original powerpoint, I believe strongly in a voter-approved geographical new UC campus siting plan

UCE University of California at Eureka a geographically remote area in need of economic development. Has that inspirational land and sea that humans love.

UCM UC Merced accelerate the planned school of medicine with a graduate school for research

Future blog article;   The BC Canada system of on and off system of academic and employment system my version of economic equality. The idea local community college admits certified nursing assistants these graduates have guaranteed admittance to the two-year nursing program. While in this program the UC partner employs them as work study or interns but only as fully pension health care employees. We are proposing a coop education/employee system. All of these student/ employees are guaranteed transfer to the UC Nursing program.here to the UC nursing student is a coop student.

 

semester 1 CNA student

Semester 2 paid work-study/coop at the nearby UC hospital

Semester 3 CNA/two-year nursing transition

semester 4 paid coop semester as a UC hospital  employee

semester 5 two years nursing student 1 and a half semester  of CNA

Semesters 6 UC hospital employee as a nursing student

semester 7 second/third semester as a two-year Nursing student transfer to or in a 4-year degree program

semester 8 UC employment at UC hospital as a Nursing intern

Semester 9 4th year Nursing semester have the right to transfer to Medical school or another grad program

 

Alternative California coop programs,

The California guard SMP program  and military ROTC  will offer  those who decline a 4-year scholarship but finish the degree a tuition-free

 

 

 

 

 

CITY AND COUNTY OF SAN FRANCISCO HUMAN SERVICES AGENCY Foster Child ABEL Account Sponsorship Project

CITY AND COUNTY OF SAN FRANCISCOHUMAN SERVICES AGENCY Foster Child ABEL Account Sponsorship Project

(A)(1) Place the foster child on the childhood SSDI program most likely with the help  of a legal aid organization; Place SSDI and other funds into an ABEL account***

(A)(2) San Francisco legislation placing the foster child into the Mayors homeownership program without a lottery when the child ages out of foster care. The ABEL account is a Part of the Home Downpayment

(A)(3)The Foster parent and a Court Appointed conservator would ensure that the long-term portion of the ABEL account dedicated to homeownership is not violated.

(A)(4) We propose to partner with the San Francisco Housing authority to explore the possibility of a foster child aging out into using a family choice voucher to pay the mortgage, unfortunately, most foster children in public housing age out into homelessness (How?) Can we legislate a no waitlist housing voucher for this program in partnership with the mayors home ownership office?

(A)(5) This proposed program would incentivize home ownership for the foster parent! The foster parent who has a housing voucher for the foster family size. This program could be a recruiting tool for foster parenting.

Some math!

5000 X (US$ 400) x 12 =
24 million US$
5000 foster children X $400 per month gifted into an ABEL account sums to $24 million per year
So what does this represent per foster child?
let us look and see
screencapture-bankrate-calculators-retirement-investment-goal-calculator-aspx-2018-12-28-19_01_40

Could we use Prop C funds for some of these children?

$400 per month for 18 years does produce about $150,000 with housing authority partners and the city we could move aged-out foster children into home ownership!

 

 

Screenplay concept; NRA employee dies suddenly from gunshot and his ghost comes back and is shown the ER by a DR for a week before the holidays

Screenplay concept; NRA employee dies suddenly from gunshot and his ghost comes back and is shown the ER by a DR for a week before the holidays. based on Dickens Ghost of Christmas past

Inspired by this  twitter exchange

I’d like to invite someone from the NRA to Follow me around for a week while I do my shift as an ER/Trauma MD. I’d like to have them go into that “dreaded room” with me, The room where we tell a parent that we did all we could for their child, but we could not save their lives.

This screenplay asks you to imagine that Dickens novel you know the ghosts of Christmas past

This screenplay is based on a Dicksen story of the “ghost of Christmas past” Could this be a short SNL skit?

California native grape

screencapture-boethingtreeland-plant-type-vines-bougainvillea-california-gold-html-2018-11-03-16_18_13(A(1) Experimental permitting; on every Tenderloin, block remove one car parking spot and extend the sidewalk out 4 feet in a half oval. Permit a larger tree here. In place, a poop proof cement bern and cement seating around for children’s bus stop. I have seen transport vehicles triple parked in front of 145 Taylor Street picking up children.

(A)(2) The new tree ordinance removes property owners from responsibility but an experimental permit could add in DOL job training programs in trellis and pruning management in a building owner public works partnership. This means the pruning could keep a larger tree in good behavior.

(A)(3) Urban Ag means permits for trees that produce fruit and the larger tree or its dwarf variety would fit more into a sidewalk garden permit

(A)(4) Urban AG permaculturists recommend the Kiwifruit vine for sidewalk trellis

Lake Nasser solar power and water conservation project

Ethiopia Egypt Lake Nasser floating photovoltaic Power for Peace Station

The Ethiopian Grand Renaissance dam is Africa’s main hotspot for international tensions, Egypt believes the filling of this reservoir would cut its supply of Nile river waters and to compound the problem Egypt’s Lake Nasser loses much of its mass through high desert photoevaporation

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grand_Ethiopian_Renaissance_Dam

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lake_Nasser

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nalubaale_Hydroelectric_Power_Station

We propose Ethiopia and Egypt would own this together and that in the end water saved from photoevaporation would be shared.

I came up with a possible solution in 2018 and I was inspired by China floating solar power plants that also alleviate photoevaporation.

The red Circles are the floating solar power plants and surface area in Square kilometers.

power station

Radius 4.99 kilometers

Area   78.36 square Kilometers for the third power plant here

Now the task is to calculate the power that can be generated by the third plant with its 78 square kilometers of photovoltaic cells. The slightly smaller power plant to the North East is most likely 60 square Kilometers and the larger plant to the north maybe 100 square kilometers

Total for this phase about 230 square kilometers!

This is about 34,500 MW!

To stop the loss of water from Lake Nasser through evaporation we need much more solar panels then this. 500 Square miles of floating solar power panels would be about 10% of Lake Nasser we need perhaps 40% to make a savings of lost water from Lake Nasser.500 square miles of solar panels would produce 75,000 Mw.

power station-2

 

power station-3Powerplants 4,5 and 6 represent a further 108, 137 and 73 Square Kilometers of floating photovoltaics cells on Lake Nasser

The Water levels of Lake Victoria is dropping from drought and here to Power loss at the Nalubaale power station could be supplanted or augmented by floating solar power. Lake Victoria also drains into the Nile River Basin

Nalubaale-1  20 Square Kilometers floating photovoltaic power plant

 

nalubaale power plant

The Grand Ethiopian Dam itself could hold this 75 square Kilometer floating solar power plant near its grand ethiopian rennaisance dam power sation75 Square miles of solar panels would produce 11.25 Gw of power

https://www.quora.com/What-would-it-cost-to-build-a-solar-energy-plant-that-has-1-sq-km-of-solar-panels-excluding-land

1 square Kilometer is 150 Mw and $150 Million to build out.75 x 150 Mw is our 11.25 Gw and 75 x $150 million = $11.25 Billion

If the panels housed aquaculture would this increase the surface area? We imagine roof like structures covering aquaculture facility

 

The second floating power station

The rights to water saved from Photoevaporation from the solar panels would be an important value to paying for the project

Our goal is to save and sell 5 Cubic Kilometers of water from  Lake Nasser every year!

California native tree Bonsai for Tenderloin Sidewalk garden

Our Theory is that native tree Bonsai would not require a Public works tree permit and would only require a permit for the native plant garden. The Bonsai project would be a part of a low-income housing employment and training program

Many property owners here in the tenderloin hate trees because they perceive them to be attractors of human waste, however, the large Nonprofit landlords employ an army of patience staff., You can see them every day hosing down the sidewalks, this is where you want to be a tree.

It is in the interests of the Hotel Sustainability council rooftop bee project to make the Tenderloin bloom, so I intend to try and enlist them to help us.

We need to build coalitions to convince Friends of the Urban Forest to do business here in the challenging environment of the Tenderloin. We need to build coalitions

 

The hotels should welcome not only trees but TNDC buildings all having sidewalk gardens because here we can make California native flowers common and within flying distance of the rooftop bees. (TNDC has agreed to sponsor trees)

Friends of the urban forest and the city economic development and job training folks all run summer youth job programs
