the mega-yacht/airship nods to the historic airship n1
Measuring 204 meters (699 ft) in size, the Colosseum mega yacht is an itinerant floating docking station for a removable ship. The undertaking Pierpaolo Lazzarini is a tribute to the airship N1 (later renamed Norge) which took off for its first take a look at flight from Rome a century in the past. With the Colossea, Lazzarini reimagines its iconic design with at the moment's supplies and applied sciences, providing the identical measurements with improved supplies and propulsion. Designed to be constructed completely of carbon fiber, from the inside constructions to the outer floor of the blimp, the airship shall be propelled by eight electrical motors, with the higher construction comprising a take-off/touchdown space modeled after the form of the blimp.

Italian designer Pierpaolo Lazzarini pays tribute to the Norge, an Italian-built semi-rigid airship that, with a flyover on Could 12, 1926, accomplished the primary verified journey of any form to the North Pole, in addition to the primary plane to fly over the polar ice cap between Europe and America. Contained in the airship Colossea, 22 remoted compartments home numerous installations akin to LH2 (liquid hydrogen) tanks, batteries, cabins and all inside constructions. The overall quantity of the service fuel compartments is 30,000 m3, which supplies the plane sufficient house to launch sufficient H2 in any compartment. LH2 is launched within the compartments to regulate the mandatory weight stability and in addition as a backup of H2 in case of fuel loss.
The identical LH2 is devoted to offering the mandatory energy requirement to every engine, able to pushing the flying craft to an estimated most velocity of 165 km/h (about 90 knots), whereas the yacht is as an alternative pushed by three HTS engines at most. velocity of 22 knots. Airship propellers can even improve and help navigation effectivity. The brand new airship with 10,000 kg of payload and weaponry can now accommodate as much as 24 passengers (plus 10 crew), though as an alternative the yacht presents 22 indifferent visitor suites and several other aft decks with swimming swimming pools for a complete load capability of as much as 44 friends and 20 crew members.
