Space1 Power

Space1 has solved the power problem for the advancement of rocket systems such as those on the new USS Pioneer rocket, with multiple E-modules traveling in space.

The necessity to power everything from flight computers to monitoring equipment and telemetry is paramount. Many sources of power design, such as the nuke kilowatt power generator (NASA Glen Research Center) are far too heavy. Space1 is using ion pack technology.


Power drivers are established in parallel containment for modules on the rocket. By isolating each power  driver, EMI and RFI is kept to isolative shielding. The power drivers recycle after mission use by planetary charging. Power drivers are so powerful, once charged fully they can last the duration of an entire mission.

Power drivers are relatively nominal in weight, cost effective, and contributory to powering multiple E-modules without using solar panels or other unwieldy devices.

Note: Power drivers are unlawful to ship by conventional means and as a result have become a valuable commodity in the space industry. Space1 has solved the shipping challenges by accessing other field components and parts community.
