Екологічно чистий міжпланетний транспорт

Abstract

The article investigates the problem of the man-made impact of traditional rocket launches on the state of the ozone layer and global climate processes in the context of the rapid growth of the space industry. The environmental risks associated with emissions of soot, aluminum oxides and water vapor into the high layers of the atmosphere are analyzed. The transition to a new technological paradigm is justified - the concept of "Aetheria Interplanetary", which involves the rejection of chemical thrust in favor of ground-based electromagnetic and kinetic acceleration systems operating on renewable energy. The effectiveness of using solar-thermal engines with water as a working fluid for interplanetary transit is proven. The results confirm that the implementation of the proposed architecture allows reducing emissions into the stratosphere by 90–100%, radically reducing the cost of cargo removal and ensuring the environmental safety of interplanetary logistics.
