6th October 2025:
This lecture is in two parts:
Part one:
The History of the Space Station: In Fiction and Speculation
Speaker: Griffith Ingram

Part two:
Island Zero: A first step in producing large-scale space habitats
Speaker: Jerry Stone

Called The SPACE Project – Study Project Advancing Colony Engineering – it was written up in two special issues of the BIS Journal (JBIS), and attracted considerable interest.
Also developed from this project was a small-scale habitat which would allow the medical studies required for people living under less than 1g. This was designated Island Zero. Uniquely, this could provide various g-levels – simultaneously!
Jerry has recently made some amendments to the design which will improve its efficiency, and has received from the US a strong message of support for the concept.
