A Japanese team tests a re-entry magnetic brake that diverts plasma to more than 7 km/s and approaches safer and reusable spacecraft. The entrance University of Tokyo tests a re-entry magnetic brake that diverts plasma to more than 7 km/s for safer ships aparece primero en Merca2.
Researchers at the Metropolitan University of Tokyo have created a new system to test the magnetohydrodynamic braking of spacecraft returning to the atmosphere. Their platform generates intense magnetic fields with a powerful electromagnet when a miniature ship is struck by a shock wave moving more than seven kilometres per second (4.3 km).
Powerful new magnetic system could help spacecraft survive the brutal heat of reentry
Researchers produced 1.58-tesla magnetic fields and changed the shock layer around models traveling through simulated reentry conditions. The post Powerful new magnetic system could help spacecraft survive the brutal heat of reentry appeared first on The Brighter Side of News.

A Force Field Against the Fire: Magnetic Shields for Spacecraft Take a Major Leap in the Lab Every spacecraft coming home from orbit survives a descent that is, in essence, a controlled catastrophe. Plowing into the upper atmosphere at several kilometers per second, the vehicle rams air molecules so violently that the gas ahead of […]
Japanese test a 'force field' to slow down returning ships in the atmosphere
Researcher at Tokyo Metropolitan University Created A ground-based experimental facility for testing magnetohydrodynamic braking (MHD) of spacecraft during re-entry. The idea is to use the ship’s magnetic field to protect the craft from heat and provide additional braking, like a force field from science fiction, and it works.
