*Click [http://www.lunarpedia.org/index.php?title=Special:Userlogin&type=signup here] to create your account -- or else donate your content anonymously (however, anonymous accounts are restricted on protected pages).
 
 
* You can click on your user name and create a user page to tell us about yourself.
 
 
* If you have questions or comments about any page then click on the "discussion" tab and type in the edit box. Make sure to sign all talk page discussion with a row of four tilda characters (eg. to sign your name type: <nowiki>~~~~</nowiki>).
 
 
== How to layout your pages ==
 
 
* You can download a very useful one page [http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/meta/6/66/MediaWikiRefCard.pdf Wiki Reference Card] as a PDF.
 
 
* Or a less comprehensive, but much nicer looking, single page [http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/0/05/Cheatsheet-en.pdf Wikipedia Cheatsheet], also as a PDF.
 
 
* Or an easy-to-dig page of wiki examples is at [http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Help:Wikitext_examples Wikitext Examples]
 
 
These files are best saved to your hard drive and also printed. Right click and "Save Link As" to do that. Or, if you have the plugins installed you can just click and view in your browser. But please don't forget to come back here afterwards :-)
 
 
== Signing your comments ==
 
 
When you add comments to User_talk pages, please sign using '''''<nowiki><BR/>-- ~~~~</nowiki>''''', this automatically adds your signature and a time and date stamp in UTC like so:
 
<BR/>-- [[User:MikeD|MikeD]] 09:15, 18 May 2007 (UTC)
 
 
Anonymous users (those not logged in) should also sign with some sort of ID, like for instance '''''<nowiki><BR/>-- JoeBloggs ~~~~~</nowiki>''''' which would result in something like the following:
 
<BR/>-- JoeBloggs 09:15, 18 May 2007 (UTC)

Featured article: Eddy Current Brake to Orbit | 24 October 2019

Eddy current concept.png

This device is the central feature of a spacecraft carrier that receives spacecraft into orbit as an aircraft carrier receives aircraft that land on its deck. It works by having a long slotted aluminum tube in orbit and having the shuttle vehicle that is launched to orbital altitude enter this slot while the tube is moving by at orbital speed. The shuttle only needs to reach orbital altitude to enter the eddy current brake tube. That can be 10 kilometers on Luna at the perilune, an altitude that can be reached with 188 meters per second mission delta v, including gravity loss, a few seconds maneuvering fuel, and a small safety margin. Magnetic flux from permanent magnets deployed by the shuttle is directed at the walls of the tube causing a repulsive force and a retarding force.[1][2] By reducing the speed of the shuttle relative to the orbiting aluminum tube, the shuttle is brought up to near orbital speed. Since eddy current braking loses effectiveness at low relative speeds, friction braking is used to give the shuttle the last 18 meters per second to reach orbital speed and match velocity with the aluminum tube. During all the time that the relative speed of the shuttle and the aluminum tube is greater than 18 meters per second, there is no contact between the material of the shuttle and the material of the aluminum tube. ...(read more)
