antimater propulsion
hi friends..
subject: regarding future propulsion systems
antimater propulsion systems can be the future propulsion system.But if we do one thing ,then i think so it will be economic to us and it is :
in the first stage we use the solid rocket boosters.
at certain hight and supersonic speed we start ramjet and then after scramjet at higher mach number and in the space we use the antimatter propulsion systems

Does that mean, the stages go like this =>
- Solid Booster
- Ramjet
- Scramjet
Personally hate (sc)ramjets at high altitudes ..... unnecessary burning of fuels ... someday when there is no more fuel oil, then it will be difficult to continue. PLEASE, this is not a joke. And don't think will perform well.
Wikipedia says ..... "Like a ramjet, a scramjet essentially consists of a constricted tube through which inlet air is compressed by the high speed of the vehicle," ...... Don't think the amount of oxidizer input from higher level atmosphere is enough to gain thrust.... at some level there is no oxidizer, only atomized nitrogen. Comments please.
HI FRIENDS...AND MR.MADMAN.
I REFERED TO YOUR REPLY AND IT WAS VERY INTRESTING.YOU WERE VERY RIGHT THAT "SCRAMJETunnecessary burning of fuels ".I AGREE WITH IT.
BUT REGARDING THE FUTURE WEHN THERE IS NO FUEL OIL THEN "scramjets burn hydro, and in the future they won't need fuel like todays planes".
Hydrogen (especially in slush form) has the best energy per pound ratio.But the problem occurs in the cyrogenically cooling. But if we use a hydrogen peroxide mixture in semi-slush form and JP-5 or other variant jet fuel ,then it will be easier for us. In past it has been use in rocket testing and proved a definite capability of reaching mach 5+ speeds.What we will need will essentially pump systems that could handle it which weren't really too technically difficult then or now.
We can do one more thing wich is to get oxygen from atmosphere and turn it into LOX and then mix it with hydrogen or some other fuel mixture.
This both systems are quit viable.and both however are non-continuous air breathing as they both have an internal supply of oxygen available.
Both systems are actually cheaper to get stuff into orbit.
This is i think so enough.
But as scramjet has high FUEL CONSUMPTION ,SO (PLEASE..) IF U WOULD SUGGEST SOME MORE BETTER OPTIONS THEN IT WILL BE WHOLE HEARTEDLY ACCEPTABLE, MY FRIEND.
I WILL NOT TAKE ANYONE'S SKY , BECAUSE I THINK BEYOND IT (SKY IS NOT MY LIMIT).
BYE.. SEE YOU SOON.

Personally WANT Pulsed Nuclear Propulsion... (wikipedia as usual) &&/|| (Read and/ or) a propulsion that uses dark energy (Q: How? A: Let's find. Q: Why? A: Available in HUGE quantity. Q? Is that "AVAILABLE WORKING ENERGY". Means thermodynamically does that yield work? A: That should.If not, then let's find a sink. Q: Why a sink? A: No answer ;D )

GR8 there is at least 1 person who's limit is beyond sky. But my man .. this "sky" here covers the whole space in the universe, as well as the sky of all extra-solar and solar planets :)
And those lines are the browncoats' favorite quote, inspired from "Those who are left behind" . :D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:DDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD
Comments please.

~ From Madman (people say I need psychological treatment)
It is indeed overwhelming the way technology turns. Antimatter propulsion can indeed be the solution to future space transport but can humanframe support the thrust from such propulsion? If the thrust can be controlled then I support the Madman's to totally do away with (sc)ramjet otherwise (sc)ramjet should be used to propel to certain level in space before switching to the antimatter propulsion.

Hi guys, these are fascinating discussions, but this is not the topic of this project. The project is to organise and host a competition on the topic of space transportation. As such, please try and keep the focus on the tasks at hand.
If you would like to hold your own discussion on advanced space propulsion, please feel free to start a new thread in the Space Chat general forum.
