Email Comments v1.1.1 / TOC (7 chapters) / 01 sep 04 / greg goebel / public domain * The 20th century saw the beginnings of space exploration, which was enabled by the development of new and powerful rocket propulsion systems that could lift heavy payloads into space, and give such payloads the ability to control themselves once they were in space. The development of spaceflight propulsion systems continues in the 21st century, with new technologies that offer greater capabilities.

Howstuffworks "How Electromagnetic Propulsion Will Work"
Get a sneak peek (even before NASA scientists) at a new type of spacecraft that could be jolted through space by electromagnets.
http://science.howstuffworks.com/electromagnetic-propulsion.htm

Extractions: For decades, the only means of space travel have been rocket engines that run off of chemical propulsion. Now, at the beginning of the 21st century, aerospace engineers are devising innovative ways to take us to the stars , including light propulsion nuclear-fusion propulsion and antimatter propulsion. A new type of spacecraft that lacks any propellant is also being proposed. This type of spacecraft, which would be jolted through space by electromagnets , could take us farther than any of these other methods.
Deep Space 1: Advanced Technologies: Solar Electric Propulsion FAQ
A beginner's overview of ion propulsion.
http://nmp.jpl.nasa.gov/ds1/tech/ionpropfaq.html

Extractions: Ion propulsion is a technology that involves ionizing a gas to propel a craft. Instead of a spacecraft being propelled with standard chemicals, the gas xenon (which is like neon or helium, but heavier) is given an electrical charge, or ionized. It is then electrically accelerated to a speed of about 30 km/second. When xenon ions are emitted at such high speed as exhaust from a spacecraft, they push the spacecraft in the opposite direction. What implications does this technology have for space exploration? If DS1 shows that electric propulsion works as well as is expected, there will be many new missions that will take advantage of it. Deep Space 4 is expected to use four ion engines to fly alongside a comet in 2004 so that it can land. Ion propulsion is not of value for missions that require high acceleration, and it often will not be worthwhile for missions that can be done quickly using conventional propulsion systems (such as missions to the moon). But for a wide variety of missions with high energy requirements (such as missions to asteroids and comets, Mercury and the inner solar system, and some to the outer solar system), the low but steady acceleration of ion propulsion wins out over the less efficient bursts from chemical alternatives.
Howstuffworks "How Fusion Propulsion Will Work"
Using current rocket engine technology, a trip to Mars takes seven months. Fusion propulsion would cut that trip in half. Find out what fusion is and how it
http://science.howstuffworks.com/fusion-propulsion.htm

Extractions: Humans have landed on the moon several times, and flying into Earth orbit today seems routine. Space is even a long-term settlement to some astronauts onboard the International Space Station . However, when you think of the size of our solar system, not to mention the universe, we have just taken baby steps into space. In order to go to Mars and other planets that are out of the reach of conventional rocket engines NASA is developing several advanced propulsion systems, including one that harnesses the power of the sun Basically, fusion-powered spacecraft are designed to recreate the same types of high-temperature reactions that occur in the core of the sun. The enormous energy created from those reactions is expelled from the engine to provide thrust. Using this type of propulsion system, a spacecraft could speed to Mars in just about three months. It would take conventional rockets at least seven months to reach Mars.
Theory For Gravitic Propulsion
Theory for Matter, Energy, SpaceTime and Gravitic propulsionintended to inspire debate and research that could lead to experimentation and prototyping.
http://members.shaw.ca/mike.anderton

Extractions: Universe Today - Space news from around the Internet, updated every weekday. PhysLINK.com Forward I would like to begin by informing the reader that I am not a physicist, I am an electronics design technologist. I have been researching electroluminescence since 1993, which resulted in my curiosity regarding the nature of photons (electromagnetic energy) and their interactions with electronic devices (matter). I would also like to qualify the title of this article. I did not entitle it " The Theory of Gravitic Propulsion" because it is not yet a complete theory, it is a new way of understanding our universe of matter and energy, based somewhat loosely upon some of the concepts outlined by Albert Einstein. The main focus of this article is the result of many years of thought and readings on the nature of energy, matter and gravity (which I refer to as matter's "gravitic effect" in space-time). It is my intent in this article to contrive a description of physical reality that binds and accounts for these "components" of our universe, while attempting to maintain compatibility with existing theories and knowns. In 1996, Dr. Miguel Alcubierre Moya, a physicist currently working (2001) at the Max Planck Institute in Germany, published a paper which demonstrates mathematically that the type of propulsion system I propose here is possible with certain limitations and apparent energy supply problems, which I believe will be solved as the true nature of physical reality becomes more fully understood. Unfortunately, I did not hear about or read his paper until 2001, 2 years after I first published this article and 5 years after his paper became available. I was surprised to discover that we both came to some of the same conclusions regarding the implementation of this as yet undeveloped technology. I respectfully acknowledge Dr. Alcubierre's work and thank him for his contribution to this new branch of physics I refer to as "Gravitics".
Electric Propulsion - University Of Michigan Plasmadynamics & Electric Propulsio
Researching electric space propulsion with the goal of increased efficiency and better understanding of spacecraft integration issues.
http://www.engin.umich.edu/dept/aero/spacelab/

Extractions: W elcome to the Plasmadynamics and Electric Propulsion Laboratory (PEPL) at the University of Michigan Department of Aerospace Engineering . The lab was founded in 1992 under the direction of Professor Alec Gallimore and since that time has been embarked on an experimental and theoretical program with the following goals: 1) To make electric propulsion (EP) devices more efficient and of better performance; 2) To understand spacecraft integration issues that could impede the widespread use of these devices on scientific, commercial, and military spacecraft; and 3) To identify non-propulsion applications of EP systems (e.g., plasma processing, space-plasma simulation). The centerpiece of the laboratory is the large vacuum test facility that was built in the early 1960s by the Bendix corporation and was later donated to the university in 1982. This cylindrical stainless-steel clad tank, which is 9 m long and 6 m in diameter, is the largest vacuum facility of its kind at any university in the nation. At high-vacuum, the chamber employs seven cryopumps, with a combined pumping speed of 500,000 l/s on air, and 240,000 l/s on xenon.

La Propulsion Ionique
Une explication sur le fonctionnement du moteur propulsion ionique qui ne rechigne pas faire faire un mimimum de math©matiques, niveau bac scientifique.
http://archedenoelle.free.fr/ionique.htm

Extractions: La propulsion ionique consiste à utiliser les propriétées des champs électrique et magnétique ainsi que la charge électrique des ions pour accélerer ces ions de manière beaucoup plus efficace que l'agitation thermique d'un gaz chaud. Malheureusement le nombre d'Avogadro est vraiment trés grand et quand on attrape les ions un par un, au total on ne déplace que trés peu de matière. Un électron-volt, c'est le travail fourni à une charge de un électron lorsqu'on la déplace avec une différence de potentiel de un volt. Ce travail vaut dans un autre système d'unités 1,602*10 Joules. Le Joule c'est le travail d'une force de un Newton qui déplace quelque chose de un mètre. C'est égale à l'énergie cinétique de l'objet déplacé au final, si au départ le sujet qui reçoit cette force est à l'arrêt. La masse d'un ion de Xénon, c'est 131 grammes pour le nombre d'Avogadro d'atomes. Soit M Soit finalement v=1,214 km/s . Il suffit donc de un volt pour propulser à 1,214 km/s ce trés gros atome qu'est l'atome de Xénon. Avec 300 V, on obtient 21 km/s. Comme vous le voyez c'est énormément plus efficace que l'agitation thermique liée à la chaleur.
