Quantum Dynamics Enterprises Inc.™ has developed a propellantless alternative to the ion drive and hall thruster currently used in satellites. The CID ® (Centrifugal Impulse Drive) "Pat Pend" is a reaction-less drive or inertia impulse propulsion engine (also reaction-less thruster, reaction-less engine, and inertia drive).
A reaction-less drive or inertia propulsion engine is any form of propulsion that is not based on the expulsion of fuel or reaction mass. The name “reaction mass” comes from Newton's Third Law of Motion, usually expressed as, "For every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction." Such a drive uses a form of thrust that does not require any outside force or net momentum exchange to produce linear motion. CID ® (Centrifugal Impulse Drive) "Pat Pend" is a revolutionary propulsion system that will replace the current ion drives and hall thrusters used on satellites today to keep them in orbit.
Our technology extends the useful life of satellites, effectively doubling their lifespan. The cost of a space launch can vary depending on many factors, including the payload weight, destination, and type of rocket used. Recently, the average price of a single space launch can range from tens of millions to hundreds of millions of dollars.
SpaceX’s Falcon 9 rocket launches have been advertised at around $62 million per launch, while larger rockets like the Falcon Heavy can cost upwards of $90 million per launch. On the higher end, NASA’s Space Launch System (SLS) is estimated to cost over $2 billion per launch.
Considering the current cost of approximately $90 million to launch a satellite into orbit, this longevity translates to significant savings and enhanced operational efficiency for satellite operators and users alike.
Quantum's competitive edge in the satellite industry stems from a groundbreaking shift in orbit technology. Traditional satellites operate in High Earth Orbit (HEO), returning to the same position in the sky each day, approximately 22,236 miles above the Earth's equator. HEO satellites suffer from service delays due to distance and weak signal strength, affecting activities like video conferences, phone calls, and other forms of digital communication. However, our priority technology allows us to deploy satellites in Low Earth Orbit (LEO), just 1,200 miles above the Earth.
CID ® will allow a satellite to be placed in geosynchronous LEO, and will experience increased signal strength, covering a much larger portion of the Earth's surface with less equipment needed for support. By utilizing LEO orbit, our technology enables high-speed internet access globally. With just a few satellites, we can provide strong signals to cover the entire planet, resulting in substantial cost savings for satellite subscribers that can be passed on to consumers.
The increasing number of satellites in orbit poses challenges, particularly regarding space debris. According to the Union of Concerned Scientists (UCS), as of March 2020, approximately 2,666 active satellites are orbiting Earth, representing 46% of all objects in space. This number has increased by 40% in the past 15 months alone. It's important to note that among these objects are 3,108 inactive satellites, contributing to the accumulation of space debris.
This proliferation of space debris poses hazards to operational satellites, manned flights, and space stations, including the International Space Station (ISS). Our CID® propulsion system extends satellite lifespans and contributes to space sustainability by reducing the need for satellite replacements and mitigating the risks associated with space debris.
