Aeroacoustic propulsion for VLEO satellites and atmospheric descent
Prometheus Aerospace is developing multimodal aeroacoustic (vibration-based) aircraft based on asymmetric oscillations of a resonating wing. By for about eight years of conducting breakthrough experimental research into biomimetic propulsion (fish, birds) was achieved results that have already attracted considerable attention from independent research communities. Experiments demonstrate directed thrust generation through controlled vortex formation and interaction with the surrounding medium — effectively using the environment itself as a working fluid.

Previously, it was discovered that in the covalent mode, the aerodynamic support of the air can increase up to six times equal to the blowing data in the wind tube. In addition, it turned out that the direct flow of asymmetrically moving bodies in the country cannot be easily explained by Newton’s third law, since the flow occurs in the direction where the body moves towards the middle.

Further experiments confirmed this, and on its basis a hypothesis was put forward: this type of turbulence (swimming fish and bird flight) vicoristic energy of the collapse of the vortex wake. In fact, the thermal energy of the superfluous medium (Brownian ruch) is the result of the direct process of self-organization of molecules in the vortex. This reveals a new look not only at vortex dynamics, but at fundamental physics as a whole.

This principle can potentially be applied to:

• Drones

• High-fiber biomimetic aerostats

• Coated “stripe” in low-Earth orbit (VLEO)

• Precise descent and re-entry into the atmosphere with minimal thermal stress
