THE FIRST FRENCH SPACE SHIP
PHOENIX
Phoenix is part of the new generation of space ships. Made to carry ten passengers at once, it has all the equipment needed for long-duration missions. Safe and reliable, it is the best option available to send humans to orbital destinations. It will soon become the first space ship ever to autonomously dock to the Space Habitat.
It has been created by a team of six talented engineers and is exceptionally well-conceived. The first demonstration flight will be launched on April 17, 2020 at 15:30 pm CEST.
The final departure is set to 2022, still waiting for authorization from the International Space Agency directed by Mr. Deligny.
OVERVIEW
The Phoenix SpaceShip, thoughtfully conceived, is divided into three parts: the storage, life and command modules. They all have specific characteristics and precise purposes.
This layout enables our spaceship to carry up to ten passengers. Material resources and food supplies will be at the disposal of the astronauts during the mission. The Docking System will serve as a mooring surface, facilitating the link-up with the Space Habitat.
Our spaceship is propelled with the most powerful and reliable engine ever created, enabling an even more secured ascension.

STORAGE MODULE
This module is the storage part of our spaceship. Aimed to contain all the material resources and food supplies crucial to the stable progress of the spatial mission, it will help the astronauts avoid lacking of ressources. Furthermore, thanks to a brand-new automated component, the Docking System, we can dock with the Space Habitat.

LIFE MODULE
The life module is, as its name hints it, the place where the astronauts live. This is also the command hub and the control system of the spaceship. To rest, the astronauts have reclining seats. The instruments panels and the calculator constantly analyse flight data and aide in piloting the spaceship. Many tanks, batteries, and sensors allow this module to be totally independent. Furthermore, it carries an aquarium, in order to do scientific research on fishes.

LATEST ACHIEVEMENTS
SECONDARY MISSION
Why do humans should be the only specie brought to space? We are leaving Earth with an aquarium full of medakas fishes!
ASTRONAUT HELMET
Discover a brand-new helmet created to ensure our astronauts' safety. It will keep them unharmed in the outer space and provide everything they need. We got your head!
NEW TECHNOLOGIES
Get to know a few of our best creations. Have a better sight of their structures and how they look on the space ship.
SECONDARY MISSION
Avenir Light est une police épurée et élégante et appréciée des designers. Agréable à regarder, elle s'adapte parfaitement aux titres et paragraphes.
We are bringing an aquarium to space with medakas fish which have a quick reproduction cycle. This will allow us to study the impact of microgravity on living beings and will help us understand the consequences of microgravity on successive generations.
Maybe it would be a great start to introduce animals on Mars.
Furthermore, having something alive to take care of can entertain our astronauts.
ASTRONAUT HELMET
The astronaut's helmet protects its wearer from micrometeoroids and solar ultraviolet radiation.
It includes the following features :
-
Stable internal pressure of 0.29 atm
-
Temperature regulator adapt from -100°C to 120°C
-
Offer a large visual field
-
Linked to a drinking system
-
Anti-shock and anti-fog system
