Two Words, DEATH STAR! Yeah, I'd build a moon sized fully functional Battle Station. Why? So I could make people fear my wraith of course, or at least get a cheap grin from the Starwars fans out there;]
I've seen the fully intact humerous of this speciment in Big Bend. By its self it was at least 24 feet long. That makes for just on of the bones of the beast larger that the entire wing span of my hang glider. There are a few questions though. My glider supports my 230 pounds of body mass, and aprox 30 additional pounds of equipment. To fly I have to have about 25 mph of airflow under my wings. My sail is about 190 sqr feet. True the aluminum of my glider is stronger than bone, but with the cross wired internal structure It would be interesting to see how close they come in terms of weight loading, and shearing stress.
Hi all, Just have to say that Homeworld in all its beuty and splendor is wasted in the world with only on processor to drive it. It needs the clean path access to the system that Linux can provide. What joy and beuty in watching the hulls of your enemy's split and crack at insane resolutions.
