Space Power Beaming (SPB)

Problem Statement

As space technologies advance and power requirements for missions increase, there is a growing need to investigate alternative forms of power production, generation, and delivery for both on-orbit and terrestrial assets. In space, existing power technology limits the ability to deploy new and novel technologies on-orbit and many missions operate with narrow power margins constrained largely by a trade between size, weight, and power (SWaP) and availability of power sources...
