Star One: building your own Space Scifi

Starship Design
Bacically I use the basic volume-mass calculation of stone, granite as it represents a kind of 'ceramic'-like structure distinct from titanium starships. Armor Points is directly equal to Mass in tons.

Starships
Dimensions: volume in cubic feet
AP Mass: calculated using 76* ton/1000 cubic feet
*76 ton per thousand cubic ft being our starship hull ceramic.

Heavy Weapons and AP
Heavy Weapon                            AP
Navy Ship Rail Gun                    500,000
Orbital Kinetic Weapon            540,000,000
Little Boy Nuke                           630,000,000,000
Fat Man Nuke                             840,000,000,000


In the year two thousand and seventeen, the shard, tumbling on it axis, passed through the Sol System like a snapped spear-tip. It drew the attention of an increasingly violent and self destructive humanity. The Ecosystem had departed in search of a better future. It had failed to protect its occupants. The atmosphere had leaked out through the hull breach forming cryogenic frozen structure on the hull that evaporated as it closed on its slingshot around the star.

 

Ormuamua
Scout Class Probe
Origin: Interstellar
Interstellar velocity: 26 km/second
Status: hull breach, atmosphere loss, considerable physical impact damage.
Method of Gravity: Artificial (currently tumbling)
Atmosphere: Liquid Eco system
AP Mass: 477,522 ton
Hull type: Ceramic
Length: 800 ft
Diameter: 100 ft

AP is under the AP of a Railgun suggesting it was vulnerable to an impact.


How would interstellar travel work?

Assuming the tumbling is to generate gravity in the decks furthest from the centre, the centre is a spherical chamber of liquid where sonoluminesence is utilized on a liquid centre sphere to provide 'light'. Its also possible the liquid environment served as atmosphere for the passengers.
