MINERVA
Station Components
•EDEN Core : The EDEN core is an exact copy of the land based EDEN system and will run any and all root tasks on MINERVA. It will regulate life support systems and a small partition will be available for lab use and general computation until further components are brought into orbit.
•Life Support Systems : Two core systems are central to maintaining life on MINERVA. There are the Air Purification unit and the Waste Management and Recycling unit. Expected life of the units is about one year with monthly maintenance.
•AreoSpace Lab [incomplete] : MINERVA will host the first unit of the Areospace lab which will be able to analyze basic data and is equipped with instruments to take data on radiation levels. The full bio lab will be equipped on the next launch.
•Living Quarters : The outer ring of the MINERVA will host the living quarters for long term residents of the station. Maximum capacity of the living quarters is able to sustain 20 permanent residents and 5 visiting residents (17 days).
•Docking Bay : The docking bay is capable of mooring a maximum of 2 ships at a time and will be able to refuel ships (dependent on size and class of ship).
•Comunications Center [incomplete] : Using the latest of sub-space communications technology the CC on MINERVA will maintain a constant uplink with Ground Zero and act as the central router for all ISI communications.
