摘要： A spacecraft capable of generating an artificial gravity environment comprises frame with a circular track with at least two modules traveling on the track. The two modules are configured to engage the first track opposite the first module to minimize mass imbalance, and a balancing system for the first and second modules configured to mass balance the first and second modules relative to each other. The frame itself does not rotate, and may have other mission supporting structures attached, including storage and supply modules, and observational modules, and spacecraft hangars and spacecraft docking modules. A method of operating a spacecraft to generate artificial gravity in a habitation module comprises operating a frame in space, propelling first and second habitation modules about the frame to generate artificial gravity environments in the modules, and mass balancing the first module relative to the second module to maintain balance of the spacecraft.

摘要： A habitation module with a gravity chamber that provides an artificial gravity environment. In one embodiment, the gravity chamber includes an inner cylindrical structure, outer wall segments that are attachable to one another to form an outer cylindrical wall, and opposing side walls having support members that are extendable. The gravity chamber has a first diameter when the support members are contracted, and has a larger second diameter when the support members are extended. The gravity chamber connects to the habitation module with rotating attachment members so that the gravity chamber rotates about an axis. The habitation module also includes an inflatable shell that encompasses the gravity chamber.

摘要： In a process for discharging a test mass that is free-floating in a surrounding electrode casing on board a satellite, the electrode casing is enclosed by a vacuum tank, and has one or more first electrodes for the application of electrostatic forces and/or moments to the test mass. In addition, the electrode casing also has one or more second electrodes for modulating alternating voltages (particularly, high frequency voltages) for measuring purposes onto the test mass as well as one or more light-emitting elements, which irradiate the test mass, the electrode casing and/or the electrodes particularly with ultraviolet light for generating a photoelectric effect. Automatically and iteratively, a test mass charge of the test mass is determined. A control operation for eliminating the determined test mass charge is carried out until the test mass charge has reached a defined target value.

摘要： A capsule contains fluid and a solid inertial mass that is free to move within the capsule. The capsule is embedded in a foam panel. A plurality of such foam panels are attached to the internal wall of a launch vehicle fairing. This device augments acoustic energy dissipation with damping the resonant frequency of the fairing to reduce the amount of energy that is transmitted into the acoustic volume contained within the wall. Incorporating a plurality of capsules respectively tuned to many frequencies provides broadband structural attenuation. This abstract is provided to comply with the rules requiring an abstract, and is intended to allow a searcher or other reader to quickly ascertain the subject matter of the technical disclosure. It is submitted with the understanding that it will not be used to interpret or limit the scope or meaning of the claims.

摘要： A facility for conditioning people for transition between different gravitational environments. The facility comprises a static cylindrical vessel and a revolving cylindrical habitat within the vessel. Within the revolving habitat are supported a number of habitation levels formed or derived from concave-up circular paraboloids, each shaped and sized so as to produce local net acceleration vectors orthogonal to its upper surface. On any one such surface, the local net acceleration magnitudes within a certain band of radii from the axis of revolution of the habitat will approximate that of the native acceleration present in a particular environment, such as Mars or the Earth. Living areas may be constructed on these surfaces, particularly within the target zones. Access to the habitation levels is provided by a central elevator shaft and system. The habitat is supported hydraulically and caused to revolve by hydromechanical swirling applied at its bottom surface. The preferred embodiments are designed for installation either on or below the surface of a planetary body.

摘要： The protective enclosure for a space vehicle with a magnetic propulsion system includes an insulated Dewar vessel formed of walls of superconducting material surrounded and suspended by superconducting magnets. The superconducting walls shield the interior of the enclosure from external magnetic and electric fields, and the superconducting walls and corresponding magnetics act to cushion passengers or equipment within the enclosure from acceleration or gravitational forces. One or more accelerometers are preferably provided for sensing acceleration or gravity in each of the three orthogonal axes of the enclosure, and a control unit is also preferably provided for controlling the superconducting magnets of the enclosure responsive to output signals from the accelerometers.

摘要： A unique structure for constructing the emissive patch of a spaceborne radiative cooler is shown. The structure has very high emissivity for all angles up to a designed-in maximum angle and near zero emissivity for greater angles. The structure also allows the use of high emissivity, nonconducting paints while fully complying with the NASA Electrostatic Discharge Susceptibility requirements for spacecraft. To accomplish these tasks, two previous disadvantages of prior art methods are addressed; eliminating background thermal radiation sources and problems concerning the high emissivity paints used in association with the black body radiator. A reflector consisting of an array of parabolic concentrators is separated from a black body element by an electrically conductive spacer. The concentrators serve to limit the field of view while the conductive spacer eliminates the need to use a conductive paint on the emissive element.

摘要： A space vehicle adapted to provide an artificial gravity and earthlike atmospheric environment for occupants is disclosed. The vehicle comprises a cylindrically-shaped, hollow pressure-tight body one end of which is tapered from the largest diameter of the body, the other end being flat and transparent to sunlight. The vehicle is provided with thrust means which rotates the body about its longitudinal axis, generating an artificial gravity effect upon the interior walls of the body due to centrifugal forces. Sunlight is directed into the interior of the body through the transparent end by means of a mirror which is oriented independently of the rotation of the body. The sunlight is dispersed to the internal surfaces of the body by means of a structure of concentric reflecting and deflecting rings. The walls of the tapered end of the body are maintained at a temperature below the dew point of water vapor in the body and lower than the temperature near the transparent end of the body. Due to the temperature differential between the two ends and rotation of the body, warm air and water vapor flow from near the transparent end towards the longitudinal axis of the body and towards the tapered end. The water vapor condenses on the walls of the tapered end and due to centrifugal force flows back towards the transparent end along the walls of the body. The cooled air flows back towards the transparent end adjacent the walls of the body. The walls of the body are lined with soil and provided with an initial supply of plants and livestock. Because of the controlled climate and sunlight, an earthlike environment is maintained wherein the carbon dioxide/oxygen balance is maintained, and food for the travelers is supplied through natural system of plant life which can be maintained in the spacecraft. Waste products are treated hygienically and returned to the soil to serve as fertilizers. A pleasant earthlike environment is provided for space travelers on voyages of years or possibly decades in duration.
