Beat me to it. We have virtually none of the technology needed to build this starship. The idea is ludicrous.

We could build it, but it would just sit there. The “whoosh” doors would work, the “life support systems”, lights and comfy chairs on the bridge would all be there.

Communicators, etc.

We could probably also build it in Low Earth Orbit. I’m sure SpaceX can give you a quotation for delivering material to the jobsite. Bigelow could provide jobsite dormitories & cafeterias and probably even Assembly Buildings in orbit.

Hey, maybe the new Facebook IPO billionaires need something to do with all that money.

Not true. We already have better video screens, tablets and computers.

Yes, but since we’ve discovered dilithium crystals in Rayall 5,anything is possible.
