A new way of producing motion,
Using nothing but electricity,
While exhausting nothing.
Truly new and revolutionary capabilities:
Can be placed everywhere, even in front of a cockpit!
Consumes only electricity as an universal fuel source.
Allows for near-continuous acceleration in micro-gravity.
Literally capable of reaching nearby stars.
Has immediate uses in available and previously unavailable markets right out of the box.
The FREE generates thrust through impulses that add up to meters per second of acceleration in space. Over long distances or when fighting the gravity of planetary bodies, this allows us to:
At 0.27 m/s²
Land and take off vertically from Ceres.
At 1 m/s²
Get a picture from Alpha Centauri in ~20 years.
At 1.8 m/s²
Land and take off from all Moons in our system.
At 3.71 m/s²
Land and take off from Mars/Mercury.
At 10 m/s²
Reach Alpha Centauri in 6-8 years, with artificial gravity,
taking off directly from the surface of Earth.
Other massive advantages of the FREE:
Incredibly high safety profile: Few moving parts, based on simple physics, works in virtually any environment.
Very cheap to make/high margin after initial development. Can be made using basic materials and minimal software.
Insanely scalable. Works from cruise-ship size to matchbox size. The only limitations come from available power, cooling and material strength.
Super efficient design: Uses energy instilled during production to minimize the electricity consumed during operation.
But there must be some caveats, right?
1st generation thrust will be pretty low, think Ion engine. In semiconductor terms, this is a 25 MHz CPU, not a 25 core CPU.
Implementation development time to implement the delivered design, though that counts equally for all companies, and is the main area of competition outside of additional features.
High license cost. I know what I have; in space, propulsion is king, and this tech is the king of kings in a high margin industry.
Expansive business opportunities:
Kirian Technologies will not compete with mass-producers and instead focus on advancing and licensing architectural designs as fast as possible.
Many engines will be needed - 12 minimum to offer the full 6 degrees of freedom in space per spacecraft - supporting expansion of mass production.
Modular design that lends itself well to mass production and standardization, scaling as far as consortiums that set universal interoperability standards.
