Pelican: A New Approach to Fueling Space Exploration

Despite its appearance as a barren, hard vacuum, Low Earth Orbit (LEO) has a very precious resource: Earth’s atmosphere. The atmosphere does not end at the official boundary of space (100 km) but grows increasingly rarified to an altitude well beyond that occupied by the International Space Station. At 180 km, there is a thin mixture of nitrogen, oxygen,

Rectification of Anomalous RAMA Thrusting Effects

Identification and Significance of the Innovation

Anomalous propulsion effects where there should be none were observed as alternate thrusts in tests of a self-contained so-called RAMA device, developed at Instituto Universitario Aeronáutico (Argentina). This device, involving ring shaped high-K ceramic capacitors with wrapped around toroid coils, generates crossed time harmonic electromagnetic (EM) fields in phase quadrature.
