Living aboard a satellite
Means
living on the moon a satellite of the Earth?
No
it’s an artificial satellite
Living
on one of them specially designed for living
A
concept generated, visualised by me
At
a time when satellites are miniaturised to
Nano
satellites, shrinking the size mani fold
This
is thinking big, visualizing big
A
big enough satellite to hold a room for living
With
all arrangements for living
A
satellite goes round and round the Earth
Making
it a mini space station when made livable
Suitable
for observations, sky gazing,experiments
Just
make it that big with more enough fuel
To
counter the constant free fall to Earth
Food
making, water, power, cxommunication,
Body,
other waste disposal all planned,
Provided
to enable round the Earth living
Heavy
payload is indeed a challenge
When
the satellite is made that much bigger
Yet
nothing to dismiss as impossible
Merits
examination, planning and trial
If
we succeed many more habitat like ones
May
come up making it a colony,
That’s
living aboard a satellite!
