‘Most powerful’ space magnet could lead to superconducting thrusters for deep space
A team of scientists from the Victoria University of Wellington, New Zealand, aims to reduce the space industry’s reliance on ...
A number of concepts exist for exploiting the solar wind as a means of propulsion: the MagSail, the e-sail, and the plasma magnet. All of these concepts work predominately as drag devices and thus are ...
The VX-200 low temperature superconducting magnet has been delivered to Ad Astra’s Houston facility by its manufacturer, Scientific Magnetics Ltd. of Oxford, England and has successfully passed a ...
If we are sending manned interstellar missions to other star systems, it becomes very hard to keep masses and power levels nearly reasonable. Interstellar travel missions really work out better after ...
