Thanks for the invitation to expand the paper rocket-sled to lunar orbit article.  I checked the max electric power use and at 850 meters per second and 50 meters per second squared acceleration an electric tractor would have to be delivering 51 MegaWatts to a 1.2 metric ton one man space ship.  That does not count the inefficiencies or the power used to accelerate the tractor itself.  The specifications can perhaps be made less arbitrary.  Capping electric power at 10 MegaWatts overall might be more reasonable.  The target velocity can be lowered to 1700 m/s and the electric portion to 300 m/s to keep overall length down.  I envision shutting down the electric cargo launcher for a half a minute or so whenever there is a passenger launch to divert power.  You could write up whatever version of a paper rocket-sled to orbit that seems good to you.  Perhaps we can find some way to integrate this idea into a reasonable overall operation.  I will keep working on stuff and welcome any help that comes along.--[[User:Farred|Farred]] 01:44, 8 August 2009 (UTC)

Paper Rocket-sled

Thanks for the invitation to expand the paper rocket-sled to lunar orbit article. I checked the max electric power use and at 850 meters per second and 50 meters per second squared acceleration an electric tractor would have to be delivering 51 MegaWatts to a 1.2 metric ton one man space ship. That does not count the inefficiencies or the power used to accelerate the tractor itself. The specifications can perhaps be made less arbitrary. Capping electric power at 10 MegaWatts overall might be more reasonable. The target velocity can be lowered to 1700 m/s and the electric portion to 300 m/s to keep overall length down. I envision shutting down the electric cargo launcher for a half a minute or so whenever there is a passenger launch to divert power. You could write up whatever version of a paper rocket-sled to orbit that seems good to you. Perhaps we can find some way to integrate this idea into a reasonable overall operation. I will keep working on stuff and welcome any help that comes along.--Farred 01:44, 8 August 2009 (UTC)

I don't recall inviting anybody to do anything, must have been one of the others :-)

Check that off the list of thngis I was confused about.

non Mars related advertising on Marspedia site

HelloMdelaney, New User:4400 has put a link to Puma shoes on his user page. I do not think this is the sort of contribution Marspedia seeks. I do not know if the corporation has anything to do with this. I could start with a comment on User:4400's talk page, but editing User:4400's user page may be necessary. I thought I would seek your input.Farred 01:24, 4 July 2010 (UTC)Jarogers took care of it. Farred 15:09, 5 July 2010 (UTC)
