Questions to Answer

This is going to be a running list of questions that the Galileo Project needs to have answered. Most of this is going to be technical, so get out the graphing calculator, and roll up your sleeves. We're relying on "donated" solutions. We'll cross reference as many solutions as possible to verify their accuracy.

1. What is the ideal altitude for an earth-orbiting space station (Space Station One)?
2. What is the ideal altitude for a moon-orbiting space station (Space Station Two)?
3. What are the lunar orbital characteristics (speed, distance from Earth, eccentricity, etc.)?
4. What's the best rocket fuel to use (cheapest, safest, most efficient, etc.)?
5. Where is the best place to land on the Moon (most interesting, easiest, most natural resources, etc.)?
6. Is there a "real" anti-gravity effect, and could it possibly be used to achieve orbit? Specifically check out work done by Russian scientist Eugene Podkletnov.

Well, I guess this works, I wanted to test it before I send everyone and there dog this way....

FK, earth would be the best base, anti gravity as a propulsion method is my favourite, if we could conquer that then mostly we'd be 90% there.

A craft with no holds on gravity could go *anywhere* and not need a base of types, we are assuming that NASA is telling us the truth about Mars atmosphere for instance...

Just thinking...
