ThibEquation Rev C+3: Regenerative Space Infrastructure for Interstellar Cargo and Tactical Interceptors (TH-1517 & TH-V)

This technical report presents the ThibEquation framework (Rev C+3), a comprehensive methodology for quantitative anomaly detection in celestial objects and the design of regenerative spacecraft architectures. The framework integrates the GKSC v5.0 scoring system (Geometry, Kinematics, Spectroscopy, Context) validated with R²=0.88 across 100 calibrated objects. Two spacecraft platforms are detailed: TH-1517, a 91.4-ton heavy cargo vehicle optimized for interplanetary logistics with ΔV=40.2 km/s using NEXT-C ion propulsion, and TH-V, a 14.5-ton crewed tactical interceptor designed for rapid interception missions in high-anomaly environments (ThibScore ≥8.0). Key innovations include: (1) Chemical Vapor Deposition (CVD) Mond-Nickel regenerative hull system enabling in-flight structural repairs; (2) Advanced graphene-epoxy radiators achieving 5000 W/mK thermal conductivity with 18.8-ton mass savings; (3) NTVC/NTBF cyber-defense architecture for sub-nanosecond intrusion detection; (4) Integration of metabolic CO₂ recycling for nickel deposition in life support systems. The framework is applied to interstellar object 3I/ATLAS (C/2025 N1), achieving a ThibScore of 9.72/10 with 12 documented observational anomalies. A falsifiable hypothesis proposes a self-regenerating nickel hull structure, testable via JWST MIRI/NIRSpec spectroscopy (Ni(CO)₄ signature at 2040 cm⁻¹) in February 2026. All calculations (Tsiolkovsky rocket equation, Stefan-Boltzmann thermal analysis, Arrhenius kinetics) are reproduced with full traceability to source documents. This public version omits proprietary parameters (exact cyber-defense thresholds, composite material recipes, detailed mass budgets) to protect intellectual property while enabling academic validation. Applications: Deep space exploration, planetary defense, technosignature detection, cost reduction in space access (-95 % vs traditional architectures).
