Plasma power transmission system Quantum Power system design
Magnetic Stability & Propulsion Systems
Land Space

Magnetic control technology, for high-speed propulsion and low-friction stabilization and suspension. In the vacuum of space, traditional mechanical bearings can fail. This technology for vehicle control is being designed for space-like environments, and could enable future spacecraft magnetic suspensions for cryogenic propellant storage, and for satellite gyroscopes and reaction wheels.
