The purpose of the vault experiments was to help prepare the Enclave for either re-colonizing Earth or colonizing another planet if Earth turned out to be uninhabitable.
O vôo espacial sempre fez parte do plano, mas não está claro até que ponto essa parte foi desenvolvida durante os 23 anos em que o programa operou antes que as bombas caíssem.
Coisas legais no espaço:
Arquimedes , Nova Vegas
It should be distinguished from Archimedes II, the second iteration of the system, which is an orbital based laser system and can target any outdoor location in the Mojave Wasteland.
Calças de água alta , Fallout 3
Highwater-Trousers is a computer program that was meant as a last resort, to be activated when an invading enemy had the SatCom Arrays under siege. From SatCom Array NW-05a it was possible to activate the program from the control terminal and call in nuclear strikes from an orbiting platform.
B.O.M.B. , Projeto Van Buren (jogo cancelado)
The Ballistic Orbital Missile Base 001 (abbreviated B.O.M.B.-001) is a large, donut shaped U.S. space station capable of firing twenty-four nuclear-tipped ballistic missiles. While it is currently staffed with eight individuals, it is capable of housing six people long term. A sister station, B.O.M.B.-002, existed alongside B.O.M.B.-001 until some point after the Great War. The layout for B.O.M.B.-001 shows areas designated for living, recreation, medical treatment, and a separate area for the station's true purpose; a nuclear missile control and launch center.
USSA , Fallout 2 (fonte não confiável, embora apresente uma possível ligação com os hubologistas tendo um ônibus espacial)
United States Space Administration
The following is based on Fallout 2 cut content and has not been confirmed by canon sources.
The U.S. government's real plan to survive a nuclear war was simply to find another planet to live on after having helped to destroy the Earth. A spacecraft designed to ferry the human race to another planet was either under construction or ready to go before the Great War broke out. The plan was for the government to flee to the Enclave's Oil Rig, wait out the conflict and then pack up the populations of the Vaults to head into space. The Vaults were funded by the U.S. government and, accordingly, the government had control over them. Ostensibly, they were intended to allow a selection of privileged United States citizens to survive the Great War. Secretly, however, a large part of the Vault Project (Project Safehouse) had a far more sinister goal.
Come Fly With Me é uma missão secundária em Fallout: New Vegas , conduzido principalmente no REPCONN test site , que ainda tem três foguetes um pouco funcionais.
REPCONN Aeroespacial ( R ocket E ngineering e < A produção de produção CO MPA N y de N evada) era uma empresa aeroespacial regional promissora com sede em Nevada. especializada na fabricação de foguetes, principalmente para o governo dos EUA. Seu propósito original era desenvolver sistemas de propulsão orbital.
The company was purchased by the giant RobCo company just before the Great War, in a hostile takeover. New security countermeasures were installed, and more militaristic plans were undertaken, especially after the discovery of a special radioactive igniting agent that interested senior RobCo management staff.
Sistemas ArcJet , Fallout 4
ArcJet Systems was a pre-War military and civilian aerospace contractor in the United States, specializing in communications, propulsion systems, and custom-built high-tech aviation equipment. One known facility is located in Cambridge. They produced electronics and rockets used by the USSA until 2077.
In 2075, ArcJet began working on a nuclear-powered rocket, the XMB booster engine, in hopes of convincing the United States Space Administration to award them the lucrative contract for their Mars Shot Project.
O Projeto Mars Shot , foi um plano da USSA para uma missão tripulada a Marte, e estava programado para o lançamento em julho de 2078.
As sondas espaciais são a verdadeira questão.
Lançamos as sondas espaciais Voyager ou seus equivalentes durante o alinhamento planetário uma vez a cada 175? Se pudéssemos encontrar uma representação de Saturno no universo de Fallout com um anel sólido ao seu redor, saberíamos que não o lançamos, pois somente depois que a Voyager 2 visitou Saturno, soubemos que ele havia sido lançado. muitos anéis separados.
É um ponto discutível, considerando que é um jogo feito por uma empresa cujo logotipo é um foguete dos anos 50 em órbita da Terra, em forma de V2, e que as sondas de espaço de construção sem transistores são altamente improváveis. divergência , que demarca o ponto crítico em que nossa história se divide com o universo de Fallout, como a invenção do transistor.Algumas das tecnologias do final dos anos 70 que as Voyagers empregavam eram digitais e necessariamente assim. A fragilidade e o consumo de energia dos tubos de vácuo são grandes demais para alcançar o que esperamos das sondas espaciais modernas. Em Fallout:
Miniaturized electronic capacity was never developed past [American society's] prime. This is why small television, radio, newspapers and even word of mouth are still prevalent. (reddit)
Até mesmo os foguetes do Programa Apollo usavam circuitos integrados; tubos eram quase inexistentes a bordo deles. Seja como for, o homem aterrou na Lua no universo de Fallout, e a Grande Guerra de 2077 deixou muitos anos à sua frente, nos quais provavelmente começamos a explorar o cosmos.
Todos os seus históricos pertencem a nós agora .
De falta notável são basicamente todas as realizações soviéticas (Wiki), que foram exemplar no real mundo . Aqui (abaixo) temos evidências de uma possível reescrita da história como contraposta a uma divergência. Para o vencedor pode ter ido os despojos:
Defiance 7 was the space capsule in which Captain Carl Bell of the United States Space Administration (USSA) made his historic flight, becoming the first human in space, on May 5, 1961. This claim was disputed by both the Soviet Union and China. Captain Bell's flight lasted twelve minutes and seven seconds, and made a full revolution around the Earth. Bell died when the capsule crashed on its return to Earth.
Notes
It is not possible to complete an orbit of the Earth in a "coasting" spacecraft in less than 89 minutes. Most likely this is a minor writing error; otherwise, an implausibly complex explanation would be required. It should also be noted that the 1950s-esque science of the Fallout universe differs from the actual physics of our universe, so this is another explanation. It is also entirely plausible that the US government lied about this "accomplishment", and the error was in fact a subtle hint towards this fact.
Carl Bell , Nota:
In the real world, May 5, 1961 was the date of the flight of the first American in space, Alan Shepard. Unlike the Fallout universe, the actual first man in space was Soviet cosmonaut Yuri Gagarin, who became the first person to orbit the Earth on April 12, 1961.
Talvez as aterrissagens lunares tenham sido falsas depois de tudo; os russos nos agrediram.
