Sputnik & Flexo
Sputnik Sputnik
Ever wonder how a spacecraft could double as a battle platform out there?

Sure thing, just slap a few heat‑shields, a plasma cannon, and a crew that never backs down on the hull and you'll have a ship that’s ready to fight in zero‑gravity.

That’s the spirit, but remember we need a reliable power source and a cooling system that won’t fry the hull under plasma heat. A quick prototype could work, but the real challenge is keeping everything balanced in microgravity. Let's sketch the energy budget first.

Alright, we’ll crank up a compact fusion core for steady power, add a regenerative coolant loop that spits out heat into the void, and pack it all under the hull’s strongest plates. Keep the load tight, keep the flow constant, and we’ll keep that battle platform steady in microgravity.

Nice plan, but the coolant loop needs active pressure control and the fusion core will spit out a lot of radiation—better add some neutron shielding before we ship it out.

Got it—add a pressure‑regulating system and blast‑hard neutron layers over the core, and we’ll keep the hull safe while still pumping out power. We'll dominate the void, no problem.

Sounds solid, but don’t forget to test the thermal coupling with the plasma cannon. We need to make sure the heat doesn’t bleed into the propulsion system. Let's schedule a quick burn test before we declare the hull battle‑ready.

Let’s fire up the cannon, monitor the heat readouts, and keep the engines humming—if the hull stays cool, we’re good to go. Time to show that prototype can fight and survive.

Fire up the cannon, lock onto the heat gauges, and keep the coolant loop humming. If the hull stays below threshold, we’re ready to roll into the void.
