We were at school together <a href=" http://www.theotherjameswebb.com/press.html ">buy careprost bimatoprost ophthalmic solution</a> In May 1962, Berglund filed a patent for an “erectable” artificial-gravity space station that would reach orbit on a single two-stage Saturn C-5 (as the planned Saturn V rocket was then known). Folded atop its launch vehicle, Berglund’s station would measure just 33 feet across (the diameter of the rocket’s second stage, to which the station would joined as it ascended to orbit). The station would unfold in orbit into a hexagon 150 feet wide. Three spokes would link the hexagon to a central hub where piloted Apollo-derived logistics spacecraft would dock. The hexagon would revolve like a merry-go-round to create acceleration, which the crew inside would feel as gravity. “Down” would be away from the hub, toward the hexagon’s outer rim.
