This, the original Box-Sat format has been superseded by the Container-Box-Sat format.
.
. As illustrated above and in the logo is the original BOX-SAT formation, it’s 27 (8 M sq) BOX-SAT units cold welded together in the vacuum of space for a BOX-SAT server center (24 M sq).Built to operate in a vacuum in the vacuum of space. Proposed Robot / Optimus and A.I. / Grok build and maintenance. Below is V.1. BOX-SAT in the format of cube boxes (8 M square) X 27 cold welded together as a design for a STARMIND server center.
.
.
Below is first draft for BOX-SAT that evolved from Star Trek Borg cubes, Terminator head chip and a Rubik’s cube.
.
STARMIND in box-sat format as the most logical and functional utility of space, where build and maintenance is by Optimus robots, maybe one cube in 27 houses a sphere pressurized for human habitation but mainly built to be in a vacuum in the vacuum of space.
.
.
The Terminator chip reference is meant to be a funny thing to inspire the, not to scale, boxes in the cube sat formation, the chip picture was Photoshop cut and paste to 3x3x3 cube sat formation.
.
.
Box-sat format in six sided cube assembly, say 8 M sq, X 27 in variety, mainly data server blocks, but also a small scale nuclear reactor, probably the center unit surrounded on all sides, then an Optimus robot unit, liquid oxygen tanks and pressurized sphere units in the cubes for human habitation.
.
There will be a variety of box types, 8 + M length, breadth and height, the unifying format, most will be fitted out as server blocks with computer blades wall to wall, roof and floor, fully accessible to humanoid / human form factor, Grok representation below.
.
The potential of STARMIND as a concept is to evolve from present day small satellite units to V.1 box-sat cubes (max diameter possible for Falcon Heavy launch @ 8 M sq) X 27 for a Rubik’s cube 3 X 3 X 3 style object, cold welded together to make a V.1. BOX-SAT STARMIND server center.
Box-Sat V.1 has served it’s purpose as an important stepping stone to the much more competent Container-Box-Sat and is important in that context, not being developed any further.
