We derive optimum values of parameters for laser-driven flights into low Earth orbit (LEO) using an Earth-based laser, as well as sensitivity to variations from the optima. These parameters are the ablation plasma exhaust velocity vE and specific abl

Project SEE (Satellite Energy Exchange) is an international effort to develop a space-based mission for precise measurements of gravitation. Gravity is the missing link in unification theory. Because of the unique paucity of knowledge about this, the

We present results of computer simulations of the launch through the atmosphere of a cone-shaped flyer which demonstrate that laser ablation rockets, using a 1MW ground-based laser, can lift 6kg payloads into low earth orbit. We discuss optimization

In 1995, the NASA Project ORION investigated the feasibility of orbital debris removal using ground-based sensors and lasers (Ref. 1). This study focused on high peak-power pulsed lasers capable of initiating plasma blow-off impulse. The conclusions

Approximately ideal flight paths to low-Earth orbit (LEO) are illustrated for laser-driven flights using a 1-MW Earth-based laser, as well as sensitivity to variations from the optima. Different optima for ablation plasma exhaust velocity VE, specifi
