Design of an Intake and a Thruster for an Atmosphere-Breathing Electric Propulsion System
F. Romano, G. Herdrich, Y. -A. Chan +25
Challenging space missions include those at very low altitudes, where the atmosphere is source of aerodynamic drag on the spacecraft that finally defines the missions lifetime unle…
Development and analysis of novel mission scenarios based on Atmosphere-Breathing Electric Propulsion (ABEP)
S. Vaidya, C. Traub, F. Romano +28
Operating satellites in Very Low Earth Orbit (VLEO) benefits the already expanding New Space industry in applications including Earth Observation and beyond. However, long-term ope…
CLOVER Robot: A Minimally Actuated Jumping Robotic Platform for Space Exploration
Alejandro Macario-Rojas, Ben Parslew, Andrew Weightman +1
Robots have been critical instruments to space exploration by providing access to environments beyond human limitations. Jumping robot concepts are attractive solutions to negotiat…
Intake Design for an Atmosphere-Breathing Electric Propulsion System (ABEP)
F. Romano, J. Espinosa-Orozco, M. Pfeiffer +29
Challenging space missions include those at very low altitudes, where the atmosphere is source of aerodynamic drag on the spacecraft. To extend the lifetime of such missions, an ef…
Solar activity simulation and forecast with a flux-transport dynamo
Alejandro Macario-Rojas, Katharine L. Smith, Peter C. E. Roberts
We present the assessment of a diffusion-dominated mean field axisymmetric dynamo model in reproducing historical solar activity and forecast for solar cycle 25. Previous studies p…
