Technical ReportOpen accessIn the keywordsMagnetic Fusion Plasma DriveFlorian NeukartIn the evolving realm of space exploration, efficient propulsion methods are paramount to achieve interplanetary and possibly interstellar voyages. Traditional propulsion systems, although proven, offer limited capabilities when considering longer-duration missions beyond our immediate cosmic vicinity. This study introduces and thoroughly investigates the Magnetic Fusion Plasma Drive (MFPD) propulsion system, a novel fusion-powered propulsion mechanism. Through rigorous theoretical underpinnings and … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 17, Issue 2 · 4 Mar 2024 · 7,180 accessesView PDF Cite

Review ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSpace ProbesRelly Victoria Virgil PetrescuA space probe is an unmanned space vehicle launched into space to study more or less distant different celestial objects: The Sun, the planets, dwarf planets and small bodies, their satellites, the interplanetary medium or the interstellar medium.

Space probes can take a large number of … …Journal of Mechatronics and Robotics, Vol. 3, Issue 1 · 21 May 2019 · 7,407 accessesView PDF Cite

Review ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAn Exoplanet has Smothering Stratosphere without WaterRelly Victoria Petrescu, Raffaella Aversa, Antonio Apicella, Florian Ion Tiberiu PetrescuIn some earlier works, the authors of the present study have shown that a modern ship should resemble a UFO, an accelerated particle jet propulsion with a particle accelerator on board the ship, accelerating to the very best big. The problem as an idea is clear and simple, but the current technologies we have in the field of fixed particle … …Journal of Aircraft and Spacecraft Technology, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 22 Jan 2018 · 6,995 accessesView PDF Cite

Review ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractNASA Started a Propeller set on Board Voyager 1 After 37 Years of BreakRelly Victoria Virgil Petrescu, Raffaella Aversa, Antonio Apicella et al.If you try to start a car that has been in the garage for decades, you expect the engine not to respond. But a set of propellers onboard the NASA Voyager 1 spacecraft was launched on Wednesday, November 29, 37 years after its last use without any problems. Voyager 1 is the only man-made object that has arrived in interstellar … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 1 · 23 Dec 2017 · 8,899 accessesView PDF Cite
