In most cases, a Lagrangian point is home to more than one group of space colonies. [23], The only counter measure to the "M" particle in the series was to install bulky and expensive shielding on all electronic equipment, but only to counteract the effect it had on electronic circuitry. Main article: CloneSome individuals in the Universal Century are artificially-produced, genetically identical (or nearly identical) copies of others. However, the system is so new that the scientists and Anaheim had noticed odd phenomenon, meaning that the Psycoframe could actually be much more powerful. The multiple panels of the panoramic screen make up a single 360-degree display, which covers the entire inner surface of the spherical cockpit. Only one machine with the Reuse "P" was deployed late in the War, the MS-06R Zaku II High Mobility Type (Reuse "P" Device) in order to counter the advancement of the Moore Brotherhood.

The list of authors can be seen in the page history there. A helium-3 atom is fused with a deuterium atom (heavy hydrogen) to form the stable helium-4 and a single proton. It is often used in conjunction with the propulsion system to quickly turn the unit and shorten aiming speed as well as directing the main thrusters. Most colonies in the Universal Century are O'Neill "Island 3" type colony cylinders, yet a few early built Bernal sphere (Island 1) and Stanford torus colonies are still in function, but most are changed to space stations or discarded. The Day when Science will overtake Science Fiction. [2], The latest robot technology in Japan is also influenced by Gundam, due to its fictional technologies' being highly adapted from real-world science,[11] and the Universal Century technologies including space colonies and mobile suits are also viewed academically as to what they can do in real life. Minovsky Ultracompact Fusion Reactor Armaments 2 x 60mm Vulcan Gun 4 x Beam Saber (2 on forearms; 2 in backpack, usable in Destroy Mode only) 2 x Beam Tonfa System Features NT-D System Optional Equipment Beam Magnum Shield I-Field Generator Armor Gundarium Alloy Accommodation Pilot only (in panoramic monitor/linear seat cockpit in torso) The AMBAC technology in conjunction with the fictional fusion reactor developed by the character Dr. Y.T. This has influenced later series to include their own reasoning to rationalize the existence of humanoid fighting vehicles. In addition to their main rocket engines, mobile suits and other spacecraft are also equipped with secondary rockets called vernier thrusters, derived from the "apogee kick motors" used to position artificial satellites into geosynchronous orbit around the Earth. This system is introduced during the One Year War and experimentally employed in the RX-78NT-1 Gundam "Alex", but it doesn't enter mass production until U.C. An I-field lattice will slowly expand and scatter into space; however, after dense interference it will take approximately 29 days before the region can support normal electromagnetic communication again. When the Hyaku Shiki's transformation system fails, the mobile suit was retooled into a non-transformable unit and the wing binders were kept as they can serve as additional AMBAC limbs. The new DACS (Divert & Attitude Control System) created by the Japan Self-Defense Forces in December, 2006 was quoted as an attempt to create a funnel system in real life by Gizmodo Japan.[27]. The first MS equipping such a device is RX-104FF Penelope from Hathaway's Flash, which is comprised of the RX-104 Odysseus Gundam combined with its Fixed Flight support unit. [7][8] The first mass production mobile suit that adopted the linear seat was the RMS-106 Hizack. It is considered the trademark of Zeonic's famous MS-06 Zaku II. On a small celestial body like Earth's moon, with low gravity and no atmosphere, objects can be launched into orbit by the mass driver alone, but objects launched from Earth still require a rocket booster to complete their ascent. This strengthening of the pilot's abilities is done by forcibly increasing and speeding up the neurotransmissions in the pilot's brain. During the Gryps Conflict and the Neo Zeon rebellion of U.C. timeline, space colonies are placed at the five Earth-Moon Lagrangian points. More by heavenly777protector Watch heavenly777protector Watch Titanium alloys are metallic materials which contain a mixture of titanium and other chemical elements. This bio brain also develops Newtype abilities thanks to the combat data, as well as some aspects of Amuro's personality. This principle is used in the creation of the Minovsky craft system, which allowed a spaceship or heavy ground vehicle to "fly"/hover on Earth. A new type of control lever used in the mobile suits of the U.C. They became a normal reference of the serial story and attracted publishers to publish books on. The bio brain is an artificial mass of brain matter collected in glass cylinders, acting as a biological computer in which one can upload a copy of their personality and memories, without deleting those in the original brain. Early beam rifles were either taken back to ships for recharging or simply discarded. As described in the manga, Mobile Suit Crossbone Gundam, and MS Encyclopedia 2003, in U.C.0133, the anti-beam coating mantle is used to provide easily restored protection against beam weapon attacks. This principle is used in the flying armor employed by the RX-178 Gundam Mk-II, and in the transforming MSZ-006 Zeta Gundam. The fin nozzles, which project laterally from the Vigna Ghina's backpack, are connected directly to the mobile suit's generator for better energy transmission efficiency. The main practical problem with this reaction is that helium-3 is extremely rare; there are few deposits on Earth, mainly found in uranium mines, and these are mostly depleted. He thus was raised around politics and science the whole of his life. This system is used to deliver resources mined from the lunar surface to the Lagrange points, where they can be used for space colony construction. These technologies first debuted in Gundam Century, written by fans at that time, later endorsed by Sunrise and Bandai, and some of the authors of the articles within Gundam Century became official editors and writers of Gundam mechanics. Active Mass Balance Auto-Control (AMBAC) is a fundamental technology that allows for thrusterless manoeuvring in the zero-G environment of space by mobile suits by means of precise movement control of their limbs in the Gundam universe as said in the Gundam Century and Gundam Officials. A mind control system installed in the MRX-009 Psyco Gundam, which compels its cyber-Newtype pilot to fight in battle. More efficient than the thermonuclear rocket engines used by space warships, this mechanism enables spacecraft to minimize their propellant consumption as they launch out of lunar orbit.

More sophisticated varieties are equipped with small maneuvering verniers, allowing them to move in a realistic manner and register on infra-red sensors. This allowed the Pegasus-class to enter and exit earth's atmosphere and to fly while inside the atmosphere. [12], During the Tokyo International Film Festival 2015, Tomino first saw Minovsky particles as a dramatic device, "Because destroying enemies on the other side of Earth with missiles would not be dramatic, to make people meet and fight in space, ranged weapons have to be rendered useless." It is often used in conjunction with the propulsion system to quickly turn the unit and shorten aiming speed as well as directing the main thrusters. Powerplant: Minovsky type ultracompact fusion reactor, output rated at 4,050 kW Propulsion: rocket thrusters: 168,000 kg total Performance: unknown Equipment and design features: sensors, range unknown; psycommu or quasi-psycommu system; FF (Fixed Flight) Unit, includes Minovsky Flight Unit, can generate beam barrier This makes the Dodai highly versatile, but also rather expensive. Huge space stations are constructed in Earth orbit to house the emigrants, and by U.C. Written by mechanical designer Hajime Katoki, summarized both in and out of universe technologies of the Universal Century, sourcing from Gundam Century, Gun Sight, VF-1 Valkyrie, MS Graphical Guide 1~3, MSV Technical & History 1~3. But the Dodai also retains all the functions of a conventional aircraft, such as navigation and fire control systems, and requires its own dedicated pilot. This substance can be used to seal ruptures in spacecraft and space colony exteriors. These decoy balloons are designed to mimic mobile suits, asteroids, and even warships. It burst, causing Kacricon's Marasai to plunge into the atmosphere. When mobile suits come into direct physical contact with each other, or with other vehicles, sound can be transmitted between them via vibrations in their outer armor. The system is similar in principle to the momentum wheel system used in present-day satellites, though obviously more complex and allows the centre of mass move outside of the unit.[22]. meters62.992 ft 755.906 in Minovsky Ultracompact Fusion Reactor 1870 kW2,507.711 hp 16800 meters55,118.11 ft Pilot only (in panoramic monitor/linear seat cockpit in torso) Titanium Alloy Ceramic Composite 76600 kg168,874.045 lb 84.437 tons 0-4 x Beam Saber OR Grenade Launcher2 x Dummy Firing Port Beam RifleBeam Rifle (GM III's Its most ironic flaw is that, because of the massive stress to gives its pilots, a Newtype is the best pilot for the unit. These technologies and their theory are now influential to factual academic research[citation needed]. (Birth of Giant Robot - Latest Robotics Engineering birth from Gundam). It is equipped with high-power thrusters that allow atmospheric flight under gravity for a short period of time. Originally intended for use inside thermonuclear reactors, this alloy's superb strength, durability, heat resistance and radiation-absorbing properties make it an ideal material for mobile suit armor. Due to the strict driving speed limits enforced within space colonies, long trips are typically made using these linear cars. space), and ask him to place his left arm to his chest then swing it out to the side, the resulting inertia of the arm movement would result in the rest of his body turning the other direction in order to conserve angular momentum. [8] Bandai (with its branch Sunrise) noticed the tradition and has hired writers to write articles for other Gundam series too. However, the system can be used to dodge incoming projectiles or small objects as the arms and legs of a mobile suit account for a significant portion of its total mass. Some variants of the tail stabilator are equipped with built-in vernier thrusters and can thus further improve a mobile suit's manoeuvrability. This mechanism has far better fuel efficiency than a thermonuclear rocket engine or a chemical rocket, but due to its relatively low thrust it's best suited for massive, slow-moving objects such as the asteroid Axis. The contact link is an alternative means of short-range voice communication. The word Newtype (, Nytaipu) first came into being when Zeon Zum Deikun, the fictional character, founder of the space colony-based Principality of Zeon, created his philosophy: mankind was destined to leave the Earth for space, where they would experience a cognitive shift, and evolve into a kind of superhuman called the Newtype. This page deals with technology from the Universal Century timeline of the Gundam fictional universe meta-series. Another version of the I-Field Generator but allows the user to redirect incoming beam weapons fire back at targets. The Minovsky particles produced as a byproduct of the helium-3 fusion reaction were recycled to keep that reaction going. A lightweight type of normal suit designed for combat pilots. One of the most famous rationale being used is the Active Mass Balance Auto-Control (AMBAC) system, referenced also in various other series including Macross. A system installed in the RX-78-2 Gundam, which pumps out air to counter the friction heat of atmospheric entry. When scattered in open space or in the air, the repulsive forces between charged Minovsky particles cause them to spontaneously align into a regular cubic lattice structure called an I-field. The technical term for a mobile suit's arm and hand. Bandai (with its branch Sunrise) noticed the tradition and has hired writers to write articles for other Gundam series, too. A Newtype pilot is able to control these funnels with great precision via a psycommu system, allowing the user to conduct BVR attacks on a target from almost all directions without having to establish visual contact, making a funnel-equipped mobile suit extremely deadly. The power output of a mobile suit's generator, although far lower than that of a warship, is sufficient to complete this process and form mega particles. During the One Year War, Zeon and Federation mobile suits utilized monocoque and semi-monocoque construction respectively, with machinery placed inside an armored "outer shell" akin to an exoskeleton.
