Ship 01
Medical
A dedicated medical bay and research ship — surgery-ready care, isolation, and a lab for studying how the human body actually holds up over years in orbit.
02The Reusable-Ship Era
Five ships. Five purposes.
A single reusable ship is only so big — so we stopped trying to cram an entire station into one hull. Instead, each ship in the cluster becomes a specialized module. Five purpose-built ships dock to the Oakheart at their core and together become the Oakheart Orbital Complex. The architecture is open to any heavy-lift reusable vehicle — no single builder required.
Ship 02
Habitat
The one that feels like home. Private quarters, a curved lounge, a galley to gather in — the leisure and normalcy that make long-duration living sustainable.
Ship 03
Science
An observation and experiments ship, ports aimed down at Earth and out at the dark, purpose-built for the science that only microgravity makes possible.
Ship 04
Laboratory
A working lab and fabrication deck — benches, glove boxes, printers, and robotic arms. If it needs to be built, tested, or repaired, it happens here.
Ship 05
Provisions
Food and stores. Tiered hydroponic gardens under grow-light glow, dry-goods vaults, and water recycling — the pantry and greenhouse of the complex.
Why five, not one
Specialize the ships. Simplify the station.
Each ship keeps the exact footprint that once bolted to its heavy-lift booster — no new airframe, no exotic parts. Give each ship one job and it can be outfitted, launched, and swapped on its own. Lose a module and the other four keep the complex alive.
