Why does the ISS have such a weird shape?

Nu are legătură cu programarea, dar e o chestie geeky și prea interesantă pentru a nu fi dată la alții :smiley:

Când se uită la filme SF cred că omu’ simte cam la fel ce simțim noi când ne uităm la filme ce implică ceva interacțiuni cu PC-ul:

When I watch science fiction, I find myself looking at the smooth, uniform, symmetrical ships and asking myself questions like “How do they reject heat? Where are they getting their electrical power? Where are the communications antennae? How does a docking vehicle avoid pluming? Why did they put the tanks on the inside where they are harder to replace? Why are they using so much more material than needed? Where the heck did they build that thing? And so on.”
