The World's First Reactionless Propellantless Electromagnetic Thruster

A reactionless drive is a device that produces motion without the ejection of a propellant. This is supposedly in violation of Newton's third law of motion, which states that for every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction. Reactionless Drives produce indefinite lifetimes for satellites, dependent on the lifetime of capacitors and solar panels.

Giant Made-in-Space Telescopes

Giant made-in-space telescopes with paraboloid primary mirrors made from solidified liquid precursors.

Mirrors are created by spinning a liquid precursor simultaneously in two orthogonal axes (one to generate artificial gravity and another to generate paraboloid surface) and subsequently solidifying the precursor by either letting it cool or polymerizing it.

A Tail-Wagger Airplane

The illustrated airplane tail surface combines articulation and side shift, providing adjustable, on-the-go variable longitudinal control for straight in-runway landings. There is no more correction from flight configuration to ground travel.

Pilots must exercise greater skill and caution in crosswind landings to transition from flight to a landing configuration. Imagine, however,

μLauncher - Minimalistic Reusable Suborbital Vehicle

What is μLauncher

μLauncher is a small reusable suborbital vehicle. It will lift a 3U CubeSat payload at 150 km altitude and return it safely to the launch pad. It will operate at modest direct and associated per-flight costs. To achieve such an ambitious goal, μLauncher will merge innovatively proven technologies and use off-the-shelf components.

Automate System Safety Analysis (SAE ARP-4761) and Airborne Equipment Design (SAE ARP 4754) Processes

For safety critical airborne systems, the minimum reliability requirements are of the order of one allowable failure in one million flight hours. This implies that almost two thirds of cost and time for design and development is devoted to complying with certification requirements of the aviation regulatory authorities. The recommended design practices have two distinct categories.

A Simple Sensor for Detection of Ground from Water

There are a lot of data and papers describing how the presence of water is problematic in remote sensing. We use this problem as the source of information.

Application

An indication of surface information (water/soil) helps these in these three applications:

Amphibious seaplanes are easily wrecked when landing on water with wheel landing gear down.
