Icarus Star is a commitment to science and technology makes human interstellar travel in the true sense of non-profit organization in 2100, initiated by the British Interplanetary Society and the Tau Zero Foundation, physicists, postdoctoral researcher Richard• Ao Bose (Richard Obousy) is co-founder of the scheme. Although many researchers to investigate the conduct of human interstellar voyage, but this mission is not to be a lot of attention, this is because of Aerospace Science and Technology Development, Star Trek and return mission will take a long time span.Human galaxies navigation tasks involving spacecraft initial boost phase, the cruise segment of the technical issues, the next step will be arrived at the front of the target objects to slow down and around the orbit phase, during which the scientists on the detection and collection of scientific data. Finally, the spacecraft will launch the second phase of the the afterburner propulsion segment, target for the return of the solar system, the need to slow down again after the acceleration section of the interplanetary cruise, and now the solar gravitational capture. Icarus interstellar travel plan is a preview of the interstellar voyage of the future manned constant, in principle, the astronauts returned safely to Earth.
The scientists
further found that antimatter could provide the highest density energy source,
very suitable for in interstellar voyage. In addition, the antimatter reactions
release energy is spontaneous and does not require any complex reactor systems or
heavy start-up procedures for the conduct of the induced reaction. An
anti-material rocket power the possibility of technology related to the
Schwinger pair production of quantum effects, we explore through experiments to
the energy of all known forms in the universe, the universe can be accurately
described as a quantum field. The mode of each of the vacuum acts like a
harmonic vibration generator, the quantum mechanical properties of the harmonic
vibration of the ground state fluctuations show, as a result of the Heisenberg
uncertainty principle.
Antimatter
continue to accumulate to a sufficient amount of the spacecraft will have a
return fuel supply to meet the return acceleration section and deceleration
section of the power demand, the scientists think that this is a future for
human interstellar voyage to explore the possibleapproach. However, there is a
critical and unique factors, the scientists recommended by the electric field
to create a proton - antiproton right, through the spontaneous formation of an
additional electric field particle mechanism has been applied to the
contemporary field of particle physics, including quantum evaporation of black
holes near the black hole the formation of electron - positron. Although this
study is still in early development of the initial stage, but the relevant
papers have been published, such as the 2011 released "interplanetary
exploration spacecraft systems: from vacuum to the antimatter rocket.
Spacecraft power
systems developed based on the theory of fuel consumed by the acceleration and
deceleration during interstellar navigation can be greatly reduced, only to
meet the fuel carried by the spacecraft. Arrival at the target star system, the
spacecraft will automatically calculate a stable orbits, the energy supply of
the huge solar panels, the role of the stage, the scientists designed solar
panel area will reach hundreds of square miles. Star light energy is converted
to laser energy to create antimatter from the vacuum quantum effects through
the Schwinger positronium.
Like in classical
physics, we believe that the vacuum is not the lack of matter and energy, but
it is also the active stage of quantum effects. Dirac relativistic quantum
mechanics equations describing the electron motion, a Nobel laureate physicist
Julian Shi Unger (Julian Schwinger) to realize that a strong enough electric
field to create electron-positron pair. When the laser intensity is greater
than a critical value, the vacuum polarization can be induced by pair
production, however, a prerequisite to achieve the process requires a strong
electric field. Laboratory studies progress makes the people of their increased
hope and found that the laser can quickly help us achieve this very critical of
the electric field.
Recently, the U.S.
National Aeronautics and Space Administration has started to develop the Solar
Probe, which is the first fly into the corona detector of exploration, the
scientists to design a super-accelerated route, seven accelerated by Venus
gravity, making the detectorspeeds of up to 125 miles per second surprising, more
than seven times the speed of the Voyager 1 spacecraft, if interstellar travel
at this speed, you only need 6450 years before we can reach another star.
Although this is an incredible achievement, Aerospace Propulsion technology
development to interstellar navigation, cruise time sufficient to consume the
time of generation.If only deduced by Russian rocket scientist Tsiolkovsky
Tsiolkovsky rocket equation developed interstellar spacecraft power system, we
will find the challenges of interstellar travel becomes even more evident. This
equation can be found the necessary speed of the available interstellar
navigation, rocket jet speed is under control the speed of light, as well as
the huge mass ratio and mass flow rate ratio.
Icarus interstellar voyage engineering studies related to the study of the interstellar medium, the target planetary systems, the exploration of the field of planetary science, including the existence of another planetary system planets and large moons, asteroids, and other, more important is the celestialbiology research in the field will find habitable planets may exist. Although the program is exciting, but the main challenge remains how to solve the maximum range of navigation within the shortest possible time. In 1977, the U.S. National Aeronautics and Space Administration launched the Voyager 1 spacecraft is now one of the flight the longest man-made objects, the present rate of more than 10 miles per second, about 36,000 kilometers per hour. Even if it is such an incredible speed, takes seven years to reach the nearest star of the distance of the solar system.
