Merits and Limitations
Merits:• End Result: Clean energy for future generations• Creates many jobs: Eventually becomes its own industry• Brings participating nations closer• Wealthy individuals contribute to an Earth-friendly effort
Limitations:• ISS is in a high inclination orbit, SBSP based in GSO•Considerable amount of GEO space will be taken up• Maintenance of panels in GEO is not a trivial task
Earth Station: Global ISS Marketing – Future of Human SpaceflightASTE 527
A. SBSP is a viable concept ready to be tested in Space
B. The Space Tourism industry is picking up
A + B = ISSCOSH
Conclusion
• Trade Study: ISS vs. dedicated LEO equatorial assembly facility for SBSP modular buildup for GSO transfer
• EP interaction with Van Allen Belt during spiral transfer• Electrodynamic tether for plane change• Lunar fly around for Plane Change ?• How to fix broken panels and do maintenance in GEO• Covering a substantial amount of solar disc
Help global warming (Dr. Angel – U of A) • Microwave Radiation or Laser?• Limited Space in GEO: Who gets what?• Same plane as ISS, what altitude?
