This is a spaceship I designed for a spaceship design competition at blendpolis, the german Blender-Forum.
I tried to invent a ship, that would be able to reach other solar systems with technologies that are already in use or are known as possible.
So for artificial gravity there are rings and it has two strong ion-engines. For Energy there is one Fusion-Power-Plant for every engine. It has also some landing-vehicles that look a little bit similar to a space shuttle.
It would last 50-200 years to reach one of the closest solar systems with this ship, but for this it has enough space for over 3000 people which could survive for some generations in this ship.
I know, that there must be many other technologies, that are in these days not on a level, that they would work perfectly enough for a ship like this, for example recycling technologies of everything the 3000 people waste (food, air, water...). But I think a ship like this is far more realistic than most of the ships we know from movies and tv-serials.

The 3D-model was completely build, textured and rendered with Blender. Only the layout was made in another programm (ArcSoft Photostudio).

I hope you like it...
