The Tailored Force Fields technology offers the potential of automatically assembling structures of specified wall shape in microgravity using resonant acoustic or electromagnetic fields. Scaled to radio wavelengths, it opens a way to build large rad

The primary difficulties with the dream of Space Solar Power (SSP) for Earth, are the extreme launch costs of solar power satellites to Geosynchronous Earth Orbit (GEO), and the absence of an evolutionary path to SSP. This makes the cost‐to‐first

This paper describes a machine, to quarry construction material, sinter walls, and assemble future space station modules. In prior work, we explored the solar energy requirements to build a 50m diameter, 50m high, cylindrical module out of pulverized

The use of tailored electromagnetic fields is considered to build solid-walled structures of specified geometry from random-shaped debris in Space. In previous work, a unified view had been established, linking experiments and theoretical results fro

This paper follows up on the idea of using potential fields for automatic construction of massive objects of desired shape in Space. In STAIF03, we showed the commonality between the theories for acoustic and optical positioning/shaping methods. Usin
