PROPELLANTLESS ELECTRICAL SPACE PROPULSION
An Exclusive Look at Our Technology
This is our main project, which is formally known as: 4He Based Closed Cycle Non-combustion Electrical Powered Space Propellant-less Propulsion. It represents the materialization of a scientific breakthrough that has been anticipated for nearly a century.
Operating under the principle of Fuel-Free Space Propulsion, this system eliminates the need for any kind of fuel (neither electrical, nor nuclear, nor chemical). It is based on a 1930 patent by Albert Einstein and utilizes advanced thermodynamic principles to generate thrust.
Lab Testing
Astrum Propellantless Propulsion
Testing is conducted in a certified vibration-isolated room. The propulsion system is placed on a highly sensitive scale and produces downward-directed thrust, which results in a measurable increase in the system’s apparent weight.
The prototype generates approximately 50 mN of constant thrust, which is sufficient to reach most planets in the solar system in under a year.
It is important to highlight two key points:
- The scale starts at zero and returns to zero once the propulsion drive cools down, indicating that the system’s mass remains unchanged.
- The entire drive rests on a single metal ball to ensure that the observed effects are not influenced by uneven weight distribution.
Field Testing
Astrum Propellantless Propulsion
In this experiment, we use helium balloons to reduce the weight of the propulsion system to just a few grams, as the system produces thrust in the same range. This setup allows us to visually observe how the system operates.
Next, we drop the system from a height of 50 centimeters. You can compare the drop times with the system turned off (in the first test) and with it turned on (the next three experiments). The shorter drop times when the system is active clearly indicate the presence of additional downward force generated by the propulsion system.
Advanced Propulsion System
Key Features:
Zero-Emission Propulsion: The Closed-Cycle Advantage
It is a closed cycle, we release nothing into space except for heat – no burned fuel, no exhaust, nothing.
Enhanced Operational Safety Through Non-Combustion Technology
Non-combustion means that we are not burning anything, so it is significantly safer to operate.
Sustained Operation: The Power of Electrical and Nuclear Integration
Electrical powered means that this propulsion system runs purely on electricity and by using nuclear power source it can run for years with no need of refueling.
Momentum Transfer via 4He Superfluidity Phase Transition
based means that we are utilizing the super-fluidity phase transition of Helium to release the excessive momentum into space as heat.
Dedicated Design for Interstellar and Deep-Space Trajectories
Space propulsion means that it is specifically designed for space traveling.
True Propellant-Less Propulsion
Means that it doesn’t use propellant.
Over Conventional Rocketry
Game-Changing Advantages
Revolutionizing Endurance: Years of Continuous Operation vs. Minutes
The rockets can run just for a few minutes, our propulsion can run for longer, years longer in-fact; It is safer because it doesn’t involve controlled micro-explosions or the mixing of super-hot chemicals.
Exponential Payload Capacity: Mass Reduction Through Fuel Elimination
It is significantly lighter which allows several times more useful cargo as we don’t burn fuel which is of the rocket mass.
