Space-based solar power is the concept of collecting solar power in space for use on Earth. It has been in research since the early 1970s.
SBSP would differ from current solar collection methods in that the means used to collect energy would reside on an orbiting satellite instead of on Earth's surface.
Process:
A means of collecting solar power in space.
A means of transmitting power to earth.
A means of receiving power on earth.
A Presentation on Space Based Solar Power and the Different models proposed by some countries. Technological aspect and the future of Energy in the Global Scenario. Renewable Energy
This paper is all about how to install solar power stations in space and collecting solar energy with an efficiency of 95% (as proven). And then by using either microwaves or LASER, sending that energy to the power grids on earth and converting it into electricity.
One of the major hurdles holding solar power back is the inherent intermittency issues that come with having an atmosphere over your head. Solar cells on the Earth's surface can only generate electricity when the sun is in the sky, and for many countries, especially those in the Northern hemisphere, constant cloud cover can put a damper on a solar economy. But what if you could bypass the atmosphere altogether, what if you could harness solar energy directly from the sun, in space.

Wireless power transmission from solar power satelliteSaquib Maqsood
In the near future due to extensive use of energy, limited supply of resources and the pollution in environment from present resources e.g. (wood, coal, fossil fuel) etc, alternative sources of energy and new ways to generate energy which are efficient, cost effective and produce minimum losses are of great concern. Wireless electricity (Power) transmission (WET) has become a focal point as research point of view and nowadays lies at top 10 future hot burning technologies that are under research these days. This paper presents the concept of transmitting power wirelessly to reduce transmission and distribution losses. The wired distribution losses are 70 - 75% efficient. We cannot imagine the world without electric power which is efficient, cost effective and produce minimum losses is of great concern.This paper tells us the benefits of using WET technology specially by using Solar based Power satellites (SBPS) and also focuses that how we make electric system cost effective, optimized and well organized. Solar Power Satellite (SPS) is an energy system which collects solar energy in space and transmits it to the ground. It has been believed as a promising infrastructure to resolve global environmental and energy problems for human beings. Microwave power transmission has been investigated and demonstrated for more than 40 years, but still requires further research regarding high-efficiency power conversion and high-accuracy beam control for SPS application. Moreover, attempts are made to highlight future issues so as to index some emerging solutions.

Space-based solar power (SBSP) is the concept of collecting solar power in space (using an "SPS", that is, a "solar-power satellite" or a "satellite power system") for use on Earth.It has been in research since the early 1970s. SBSP would differ from current solar collection methods in that the means used to collect energy would reside on an orbiting satellite instead of on Earth's surface.
solar power satellite & microwave power transmissionbhavisha patel
In this seminar topic,I included all the things related SPS system & how microwave power transmission can done through magetron,retro directive beam controlling scheme & all.I also mentioned the design of optical rectenna & economic evolution of the topic.
future generation there may will be energy crises.
so to avoid these we are going for the technology named solar power plant through space satellite which provides continuous power supply . still research is going on this topic
Here is the 2nd project of mine, given by college students. get information from this. want to create like this contact me @instagram slide+ presentation
In this paper, I present the concept of Solar Power Satellites -The solar cells in the satellite will convert sunlight to electricity, which will changed to radio frequency energy, then beamed to a receiver site on earth and reconverted to electricity by using transmitting and receiving antenna with the technology of wireless power transmission (i.e., transmitting power as microwaves in order to reduce the transmission and distribution losses). This concept is also known as Microwave Power Transmission.

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202
A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.
Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

4. History
4
• The concept of Solar Power Satellites was first
conceived by IsaacAsimov, in his 1961 short story,
‘Reason’.
• In 1973 Peter Glaser was granted a U.S. patent for his
method of transmitting power over long distances.
• NASA carried out a small-scale study in 1974.
• Between 1978 and 1986, the Congress authorized
the Department of Energy (DoE) and NASA to jointly
investigate the concept.
• On Nov 2, 2012, China proposed space collaboration
with India that mentioned SBSP.
6. Electronics
• Transmission of 50-60Hz of of
electrical energy from the generation
point to the consumer without any
physical wires is yet to mature as a
viable technology.
• The microwave transmission system
has three aspects:
1.The conversion of direct power from
the photovoltaic cells, to microwave
power on the satellites on
geosynchronous orbit above the Earth.
2.The formation and control of
microwave beam aimed precisely at
fixed locations on the Earth’s surface.
3.The collection of the microwave
energy and its conversion into electrical
energy at the earth’s surface.
Wireless Power Transmission

8. Electronics
• Magnetron is a high powered vacuum tube
device that generates microwaves owing to
the motion of clouds of electrons in a crossed
electric and magnetic fields.
• It consists of a cathode which is placed at the
centre and has a ring shaped anode with
cavities surrounding it.
• A permanent magnet is placed beneath the
anode.
• The cathode is heated and a potential is
applied between anode and cathode.
• Electrons get liberated from the cathode, and
take a helical path to the anode.
• As the electrons pass the cavities in the
anode, microwaves are generated.

9. Mathematics
• Vectors are used to represent the position of the satellite w.r.t.
the earth.
• A combinations of vectors and calculus is used to derive the
equations for all the parameters related to the satellite orbit.

10. Mathematics
Kepler’s Laws
• Kepler’s Laws are mathematically proved using the concepts of limits, integration and
differentiation.
• The second law states that a line between the sun and the planet sweeps equal areas in
equal times.
The orbital area, ∆A, swept out by the radius vector r as it moves through a small angle ∆θ in a
time interval ∆t, is given as
∆A =

Solar Radiation Pressure
It is assumed that a fraction, ρs, of the impinging photons is
specularly reflected, a fraction, ρd, is diffusely reflected, and a
fraction, ρa, is absorbed by the surface.
ρs + ρd + ρa = 1
The solar radiation pressure (SRP) force acting on an ideal flat
surface is then expressed as
For an ideal case of a perfect mirror:
Also, for an ideal case of a black body:
For most practical cases of satellites with small pitch angles
force per unit mass is:

12. Mechanical Engineering
• It is another alternative to using photovoltaic cells in Solar power Satellites.
• The energy from the sun is converted into electrical energy with the help of a
working fluid that cycles repeatedly through the system.
Solar Rankine Cycle
12
13. Mechanical Engineering
• The working fluid gets heated by using the energy from the sun.
• It undergoes constant pressure heating.
• The high temperature and pressure fluid causes the blades of the turbine to
rotate, and thus electricity is generated.
• The waste heat is rejected by the radiator.
• The fluid gets pumped into the heater again, and the cycle repeats.
Solar Rankine Cycle
13
14. Mechanical Engineering
• The Rankine cycle studied by NASA uses potassium as the working fluid.
• Potassium Rankine cycles show lower efficiencies than the steam cycles.
• However steam cycles require large radiator size since due to low heat
rejection rates of water when compared to potassium.
• The difference between Brayton cycle and Rankine cycle is that the Brayton
cycle is normally an open cycle, and uses a constant phase working fluid,
while the opposite is true for the Rankine cycle.
Solar Rankine Cycle

15. Computer Science
• Simulation is a necessary stage in the
development of any new technology.
• MATLAB (matrix laboratory) is a multi-
paradigm numerical computing
environment and fourth-generation
programming language.
• It can be used to generate graphs and
models using input in the form of
programs.
• Satellite orbit simulation is crucial for
both launch operations and long term
tracking of the satellite.
