A kilometer long craft seems original and might place China on the list of firsts, I just don’t see it happening.

Okay but I don't know how else "done everything that could be done" is supposed to be interpreted.

You can get an awful lot of noodles in a Kilometre-Long Spaceship.

I remember some thoughts I had about building bigger spaceships.

The form of it I don't know but the ship shall be big enough to carry 40-50 people and they shall each and one of them have a 2X3X2 squaremeter where they can be for them self. The ship shall also be so big it can maintain 40-50 life with food and water.

It shall also be so big that it is possible to gather satellite parts-Like a hangar deck on a carrier.

The engines should be a part of this spaceship.

Nothing but a crazy idea.

In my mind it makes perfect sense

Then I suppose you mean that all the baby steps have been accomplished. And they are nothing more than the baby steps leaving vast room for improvement in order to move ahead.

Or rice.. imagine what a missile with a water-filled "war"head would do to a rice-filled hull..

Boiled or fried?

We will first know in around 5 years from now whether they will construct this huge spaceship or not.

They have created a group of expert who shall investigate if it's possible to build such a ship and how. They have 5 years to this.

I say they will not be able to do it by them self, they should invite USA and Russia.

They boil the rice before loading it into the spaceship.
When the spaceship explode the rice become fried.

Sounds to me like it isn't a spaceship they're going to build but more of an interstellar wok.
