Abstract
An interplanetary transportation system that includes a tunnel that spans between different planetary bodies and uses an electromagnetic propulsion system for propelling space-faring vehicles. The tunnel can be fixed and powered by outer space energy resources, such as the sunlight. The tunnels include fixed spaced rings and a mobile ring. The vehicle can be mounted to the mobile ring, wherein the spaced rings and the mobile ring propels the vehicle using motional EMF.
Claims7
An interplanetary transportation system comprising:
- a tunnel that spans between a first planetary body and a second planetary body, the tunnel has a slot at a bottom of the tunnel that extends along a length of the tunnel;
- a plurality of spaced rings disposed around the tunnel and spaced apart from each other throughout the length of the tunnel;
- a mobile ring configured to increase and decrease in size;
- and
- a vehicle mounting member coupled to the mobile ring, wherein the vehicle mounting member is configured to mount a space-faring vehicle,
- wherein the plurality of spaced rings and the mobile ring are configured for electromagnetic propulsion of the space-faring vehicle.
