Add to Favourites. These satellites efficiently convert sunlight into electrical power, then transmit it down to receiver stations on the planet's surface in the form of microwaves. The Minovsky particle also interferes with the operations of electronic circuitry and destroys unprotected circuits due to the particles' high electrical charge which act like a continuous electromagnetic pulse on metal objects. At the same time Anaheim Electronics had scavenged the Minovsky Drive from the remains of the Mother Vanguard and used it do design their own mobile suit with a "wings of light" system. This reactor was "radical" due to the fact that it was the first "clean" nuclear reactor, emitting zero neutron radiation. The mantle could then be discarded once it loses all the ABC (thus the anti-beam protection). This reactor was "radical" due to the fact that it was the first "clean" nuclear reactor, emitting zero neutron radiation. The Minovsky particles produced as a byproduct of the helium-3 fusion reaction were recycled to keep that reaction going. AMBAC is by its nature limited to re-orienting the unit about its center of mass, and is not a substitute for propulsion. Which one you would use if you're to make your own mobile suit/armor/doll? During the Gryps Conflict, they are often unmanned models controlled by the mobile suit itself, but later versions are equipped with cockpits so that they can also be used as transport craft. [6], Although fictional technologies seems to carry no real-life significance, these technologies are referred to in almost all of the series of Universal Century. The Minovsky-Ionesco reactor was named after its fictional inventors, Dr. Y.T. This system permits the use of simple remote weapons like incoms, but even with computer support, these devices are capable only of two-dimensional movement. This allowed the Pegasus-class to enter and exit earth's atmosphere and to fly while inside the atmosphere. An external tank is used for propellant storage. However, the full latent potential of this system can only be tapped by a Newtype pilot. This device can also be used to establish a contact link for voice communication. 9.2 Minovsky Ultracompact Fusion Reactor 9.3 Energy capacitor (E-CAP) 9.4 Minovsky Craft System 10 Mobile Suit Technology - Unique control/interface systems 10.1 Psycommu System 10.2 Quasi-Psycommu System 10.3 Half Control System 10.4 Neo-Psycommu System 10.5 EXAM System 10.6 HADES 10.7 n_i_t_r_o System 10.8 Psyco-control system 10.9 Combat system Perfect Grade, Master Grade, High Grade Model Instruction Manual, Bandai. To fix this, the Magnet Coating process was created. The Minovsky physics is the fundamental technological advancement in the Universal Century series, as all Beam weaponry (including the lightsaber-like Beam Sabers), nuclear technology and defensive measures are based upon this fictional physics. [9] In the Cosmic Era time line, one of the authors of Gundam Century articles (while still a high school student at that time), Shigeru Morita, who had become a regular employee of Bandai, was assigned to write these kinds of technological articles, possibly a method used by the company to attract Universal Century techno fans to watch the new series. The AMBAC system coordinates movements and micro-movements precisely, allowing a continuous balance and stability without expending reaction mass. The Minovsky particle has near-zero rest mass - though, like any particle, its mass increases to reflect its potential or kinetic energy - and can carry either a positive or negative electrical charge. Born on December 2, 1923 to Tetter and Ivana Minovsky in Moscow, Yuri was born into a Party family. A second use of the I-field (and Minovsky particles in general) was the repulsion of charged plasma and chargeless mega-particles from an I-field surface, which was of use both in power generation and armament technology. Category:Cosmic Era Eden Technology. Category:Cosmic Century Technology. However, in the weightless environment of space, the centrifugal force produced within a rotating cylinder can be used to simulate Earth's gravity. This system could not be miniaturized to fit on a mobile suit until after U.C.0100. Furthermore, if the pilot wears a compatible normal suit, the suit itself can be affixed to the seat, with no need for seatbelts. Applied Reactor Physics Technology The Gundam Wiki FANDOM powered by Wikia May 10th, 2018 - According to the timeline deduced by the Gundam Officials in UC 0071 Zeon researchers created the Minovsky ultracompact fusion reactor In the Mobile Suit Gundam Origin the technology was created by Professor Trenov Y Minovsky himself in U C 0074 for YMS . The main use of the Minovsky particle was in combat and communication. While on the Earth heat can be transferred to water or air, space is a vacuum which means the heat must be given off through radiation, an extremely slow process. A lightweight type of normal suit designed for combat pilots. The contact link is an alternative means of short-range voice communication. These technologies are the basic reasoning for the Universal Century's having mobile suits as the main battle units, replacing space fighters. The amount of thrust depends on the exhaust velocity and the rate at which propellant mass is consumed, and since the former factor is subject to strict technological constraints, mobile suits must carry large quantities of propellant to sustain them throughout extended battles. Minovsky Ultracompact Fusion Reactor Armaments 2 x Head Vulcan Gun 2 x Beam Saber/Dagger System Features Armor Series Cyclops Phase Poseidon Phase Dryad Phase Magic Phase Optional Equipment Beam Machinegun Shield Armor Gundarium Alloy Appearance Storyline Mobile Suit Gundam: Fusion Vs. [Source] Power Plant: Minovsky Ultracompact Fusion Reactor Armaments: Hyper Mega Bazooka Launcher and Arondight Beam Sword Special Armaments: Absorb Shield Special Systems/Feature: Detachable Body Bits 1 Reply LostDepths 1 yr. ago LostDepths's personal Mobile Suit: Primary Color: Yellow Secondary Color: Orange Power Plant: GN Drive (Trans-Am capable) According to the official guide of Mobile Suit Gundam, Gundam Century and Gundam Officials, the Minovsky Physics Society, while working on the reactor, encountered a strange electromagnetic wave effect in U.C.0065 within the Minovsky-Ionesco reactor that could not be explained by conventional physics. Due to the various advantages of the movable frame, it soon become the standard mobile suit construction method during the Gryps War, and the obsolete monocoque and semi-monocoque construction was eventually phased out. These devices house both propellant tanks and powerful rocket thrusters, enabling the mobile armor to accelerate rapidly on its way to the battlefield. An I-field is used to deflect enemy mega particle beams. According to Gundam Officials, in the latter half of the One Year War, Zeon mobile suits suffered heavy damage from Earth Federation Forces' beam weaponry-equipped mobile suits. Semi-transparent coating protect the unit by having multiple layers all reflecting a certain wavelength of light and thus effectively reduces the energy of different laser weapons. At the dawn of the Universal Century, a massive space settlement program is launched to address Earth's energy, environmental, and population problems. Thus, at low altitudes it is possible to generate an I-field cushion between the underside of a vessel and the ground, yielding a gravity-countering buoyancy. Their research was devoted to the development of a nuclear fusion reactor. The multiple panels of the panoramic screen make up a single 360-degree display, which covers the entire inner surface of the spherical cockpit. These form-fitting space suits provide a minimum of impediment to the pilot's movements. In addition to providing protection, the F91's armor also incorporates circuitry and cooling systems, allowing this highly compact mobile suit to make more efficient use of its limited internal space. This unlimited source of electricity supplies the power needed to run an MS' avionics and life support systems, as well as the actuators and motors control the MS' joints. An electromagnetic catapult installed on the surface of a planet, moon, or other celestial body, which is used to accelerate objects to escape velocity. As Newtypes began to grow in number during and following the One Year War, the psycommu (psychic communicator) system was invented, which allowed these Newtypes to control wireless weapons known as bits and funnels, and even mobile suits, through thought alone. This has influenced later series to include their own reasoning to rationalize the existence of humanoid fighting vehicles. Since it is made up of charged particles, the I-field is unable to penetrate metal, water, the Earth's surface, or other electrically conductive materials and can be shaped simply by trapping it in an electromagnetic field. However, due to massive use of mega-particle/beam weapons and the necessity of developing an anti-beam armor, this technology is no longer a basic requirement on mobile weapons. As described in the Gundam Officials and Mobile Suit Gundam the novel appendix, the semi-transparent coating () is originally used as the laser medium, mirror and partial mirror of laser weapons in the Universal Century timeline. Within the next few years, they identified the cause: a new elementary particle generated by the helium-3 reaction on the inner wall of the reactor, which was named the Minovsky particle or "M" particle. As a result, the unit performed well against more conventional mobile suits and showed superiority in manoeuvrability. This article needs to be cleaned up to conform to a higher standard of quality. [7] Although it could be viewed as following the Star Wars trend, nothing similar has started before the 1981 publishing of Gundam Century. The balloon emerges from the cockpit's console panel at the moment of impact, and then immediately deflates again. The RMS-106 Hizack, a Federation mobile suit that incorporated Zeon technology, used a fluid pulse/field motor hybrid system. This technology served as the basis of the beam-resistant coating and anti-beam coating although the only common factor is the multiple layers. The Galluss-J carries a single beam saber for melee combat. 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. The system consists of a pilot seat suspended on a linear rail floating in the cockpit block. The Day when Science will overtake Science Fiction. The bio-computer is originally intended to help the disabled, but its development is ultimately funded by the Earth Federation Forces, who hope to employ it as a mobile suit control system and install it in the F91 Gundam for experimental purposes. CP-01 Buster Sword (Newtype Series) Creation Particle Research (Newtype Series) Creation Particles Research (GS:E) Crystal Field Generator. Thankfully, those with strong wills can overpower the system and determine when it can activate. Instead, it uses a cubic lattice of Minovsky particles to push the vessel away from the Earth's surface. Thousands of fluid pipes, finer than human hairs, transmitted these pulses at supersonic speed to the rotary cylinders which drove the joints. When the pilot grasps the spherical controller, he can use his fingers to operate the individual control switches, while moving the sphere itself to maneuver the mobile suit. However, the E-CAP cannot be recharged by Mobile Suits themselves; once its energy is drained the weapon becomes useless. Robot & Rockets & Futuropolis, Gundam SF World, Shonen Magazine Deluxe. [8] Bandai (with its branch Sunrise) noticed the tradition and has hired writers to write articles for other Gundam series too. This diffraction and polarization process disrupts the electromagnetic waves. Eventually the Minovsky Craft System design would be overhauled and upgraded into the Minovsky Drive, the first of its kind being built into the ship Mother Vanguard of the Crossbone Vanguard as a system nicknamed the "Sail of Light". These are supplemented by infra-red and laser sensors for precision targeting. When the Minovsky particle is spread in large numbers in the open air or in open space, the particles disrupt low-frequency electromagnetic radiation, such as microwaves and radio waves. The joints of Zeon mobile suits are driven by a fluid pulse system, which used a pulse converter to turn the energy produced by the atomic reactor into pulses of pressure within a fluid. However, the system has a number of flaws to it. 0120 era. The movable frame was a new concept in mobile suit construction introduced after the One Year War, it was first tested on the RX-178 Gundam Mk-II(though the GP series featured partial movable frame). However, they are vulnerable to weapon fire, as Kacricon Cooler (And many other pilots both AEUG and Titan) later found out the hard way that his ballute was set on auto-leaving him vulnerable; Kamille Bidan took advantage of this and shot at it. This plane is divided into multiple sections, which can be turned on or off as needed to conserve energy. Federation mobile suit until after U.C.0100 single beam saber for melee combat and exit 's.
