USS Vanguard

Post by Graham Kennedy »

An interplanetary ship from the Coalition universe, fielded by the USA in the 2060s. The first ship designed with rotational pressure hulls for artificial gravity.

I've done a few ships designed for rotational gravity, and I've done a few animations, but this is the first time it's occurred to me to animate rotating hulls! Looks very cool, I think. The rotation speed is correct for the scale of the ship, giving a 0.8 gee rotation in the pods.

Give a man a fire, and you keep him warm for a day. SET a man on fire, and you will keep him warm for the rest of his life...
