Self-Healing PCB Circuits for Autonomous Space Electronics

Spacecraft electronics are vulnerable to damage from temperature extremes, impacts, and long missions. Traditional PCBs cannot repair themselves after cracks or fractures, risking total mission failure.

This invention introduces self-healing PCB circuits using embedded microfluid channels underneath the electrical traces. If a trace fractures, conductive liquid metal flows into the break and restores the circuit automatically.

Portable Clean Room

In traditional aviation maintenance, all composite damage components have to be removed from the aircraft and sent to a controlled environment to perform the repair. This causes time and money to be lost. Even for a very minor damage, the component still has to be removed from the aircraft and repaired under a controlled environment. So,

Aircraft Sealant Scrapper

In the traditional aviation industry, sealant removal is one of most terrible types of work for front line mechanics. Until now no mechanic would like to pick up this kind of task if they have the right to choose especially inside fuel tanks and or very limited space. As I had over 40+ years in aviation maintenance,

Flexible Multilayered Ceramics

Traditional ceramics, while offering exceptional hardness and durability, are inherently brittle, limiting their use in applications requiring both flexibility and impact resistance. This study investigates the mechanical performance of soft, multilayered ceramics, focusing on how hexagonal tile size, adhesive interlayer thickness, and layer configuration influence flexural compliance, penetration resistance, and energy absorption.

"Rescue Hopper 911" First Responder Rescue Aircraft

The "Rescue Hopper 911" is a VTOL thrust vectoring aircraft used for search and rescue missions. The Rescue Hopper is uniquely safe and low noise with an enclosed propeller system.

Helicopters and other multi rotor aircraft have dangerously exposed propellers that can cause a blade strike which can lead to a hard landing.

Platinum

Platinum from Asteroids. Many sought it. Technology fell short. Here's the answer, just released (Advances In Space Research, Elsevier):

$1,370,000,000 in Pt from Main Belt asteroids per each 12-month mission, now possible.

Three innovations make this possible:

Fe and Ni are boiled off M-class ore, leaving platinum group metals behind.

Hypersonic Launch Featuring Propellant Capture with Suppressed Acoustic and Heat Signature

Green Launch has just successfully completed development of extended capabilities for our light-gas kinetic launch system. As proposed by Jules Verne we have found the fastest way to space is a hypersonic space launch tube. In our case we have substituted 3x faster hydrogen for gunpowder. We have launched projectiles horizontally to hypersonic velocities,
