Project
Utilizing Electromagnetic Systems for Hybrid Space Launches
Project #1303
Our project is geared towards hybrid electromagnetic launches for energy efficiency and long term usage. Through electronically timed electromagnets, speed is attained without chemical propellants. The launch track involves coil windings and accurate distancing between solenoids with controlled sensory data and input voltage for accurate power cycling. To reduce atmospheric drag and friction, the launch track is placed within a vacuum tube with a graphene coating on the guided rail to reduce friction on the payload. Alongside internal tests, additional research and proportionality calculations allowed for scalability and efficiency rate comparisons of initial phases with traditional launch systems.
