Rice Pending Gravitation

Rice Pending Gravitation We are attempting to build an electromagnetic sensor that would provide a method to locating space vehicles in microgravity.

For more information please visit our website at www.rpg.rice.edu Rice Pending Gravitation is a diverse team of Rice University undergraduates. The team is attempting to build an electromagnetic sensor that would provide a method to locating space vehicles in microgravity. It will build three identical electromagnetic sensors, each pointing in a different axial direction. The instrument will calcu

late the displacement of a space vehicle from its non-accelerating trajectory. Current position sensing technology provides an energy cost to communicate and decreases in accuracy over long period of time. The proposed electromagnetic sensors would provide a method to locating space vehicles in microgravity that not only provides power during operation but would also not be encumbered to short-time space expeditions.
