Minovsky and Dr. Ionesco. 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 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. [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. Upon reaching its destination, the mass driver's payload can be collected by a giant net known as a mass catcher. An optional accessory for the RX-178 Gundam Mk-II, which is subsequently developed into the binder on the back of the MSZ-006 Zeta Gundam. Mobile Suit Technology - Construction & Coating, Mobile Suit Technology - Defensive Systems, Mobile Suit Technology - Unique control/interface systems, Gundam Century renewal version acknowledgment, Dengeki Data Collection No.4 - Mobile Suit Zeta Gundam Z Part 1, p.50-51, XM-X1 Crossbone Gundam X-1 Kai Kai "Skull Heart", MS-06R Zaku II High Mobility Type (Reuse "P" Device), https://www.itmedia.co.jp/lifestyle/articles/1203/22/news082.html. Huge space stations are constructed in Earth orbit to house the emigrants, and by U.C. Besides being mounted on transformable mobile suit, it is also used by non-transforming units such as PMX-003 The O. 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. By the year U.C.0047, development of the Minovsky-Ionesco reactor began. Category:Cosmic Era NS Technology. 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. 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 E-CAP stores Minovsky particles in a compressed, high-energy state, just short of fusing into mega particles. The nuclear equation was: (energy released: 18.35 MeV) Individual sections are also automatically deactivated whenever they're in danger of coming into contact with the mobile suit itself. These shelf nozzles are movable thrusters attached to the mobile suit's backpack, whose flexibility also allows them to be used for AMBAC maneuvering. According to the Gundam Century, MS encyclopedia 2003 and Gundam Officials, the Minovsky Physics all started from the invention of the then seemingly impossible idea of a nuclear fusion reactor that has a higher theoretical efficiency than classical physics, due to the Minovsky particle. The Mobile Suit Epoch Vol. Most of the early mobile suits used during the One Year War lack emergency escape mechanisms. 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. Main article: CloneSome individuals in the Universal Century are artificially-produced, genetically identical (or nearly identical) copies of others. 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. 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. 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. A super high-tensile alloy developed by Earth Federation Forces researchers at the asteroid base Luna II. It should be noted that in real physics, helium-3-deuterium fusion produces neutrons due to inevitable deuterium-deuterium reactions. 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. Gundam and World War II, Doitsu Suzuki, Kosaido Shuppan. During the Gryps Conflict and the Neo Zeon rebellion of U.C. Each colony can support millions of people, and they're grouped into clusters called Sides, each made up of between 35 and 40 colonies and housing a billion or more people. Should one be found, the NT-D System activates and turns the Unicorn Gundam into its "Destroy mode", improving its stats overall and allowing it to take control of Newtype weaponry used by others and turn them against them. The assault carrier Albion is one of the few military vessels designed to use this system. The Minovsky-Ionesco reactor was named after its fictional inventors, Dr. Y.T. Thanks to the effects of Minovsky particle interference, radar sensors are virtually useless in the battlefields of the Universal Century, and optical cameras are the primary means of detecting and targeting enemy vessels. timeline, space colonies are placed at the five Earth-Moon Lagrangian points. Only if he or she connects with her may the systems true performance come out. Instead of the conventional magnetic field, this improved version of the Minovsky-Ionesco reactor used an I-field to confine and compress the reactor fuel, triggering a fusion reaction. [24], According to the timeline deduced by the Gundam Officials, in UC 0071, Zeon researchers created the Minovsky ultracompact fusion reactor. An I-field generator consumes a large amount of energy and overheats in around 15-20 minutes. 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 image displayed on this screen is a computer simulation constructed from the cameras distributed around the mobile suit's exterior. Individual colony pairs are known as Bunches, and a group of colonies that occupy a Lagrangian point are known collectively as a Side. According to the timeline deduced by the Gundam Officials, in UC 0071, Zeon researchers created the Minovsky ultracompact fusion reactor . Thanks to this interference, warfare in the Universal Century era relies heavily on visual sensors, which can be tricked by inflatable decoys. When the propellant is consumed, the tank can be discarded to reduce the mobile suit's weight. The Minovsky particles produced as a byproduct of the helium-3 fusion reaction were recycled to keep that reaction going. This article needs to be cleaned up to conform to a higher standard of quality. The system works by using the Psycoframe built within its body to seek out Newtype brainwaves. Propellant is the reaction mass used in the rocket engines of mobile suits and other spacecraft. 0093, these "sleds" are used by every warring faction, including the Earth Federation Forces, the Titans, the AEUG and the Neo Zeon. While this could be done for space ships and naval ships, this ruled out the use of precision guided weapons, such as guided missiles. 0050, these space colonies are home to 80% of the human race. The idea is simple: "If four limbs can maneuver the unit better than none, why not equip them with 5 or more?" 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. An I-field is used to deflect enemy mega particle beams. As its name implies, the bio-computer is similar in structure to a human brain, and its operating processes resemble human thoughts and feelings. The mantle could then be discarded once it loses all the ABC (thus the anti-beam protection). In this approach, a variety of functions are incorporated into the mobile suit's armor layers. propellant tank. 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. 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, it is not as effective as the later anti-beam coating, and the armour will still be damaged if the beam weapon is fired in close range or has a high enough power. These Sub Flight Systems, or sled, come in both atmospheric and space versions. 0085. 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. , Science, Mystery? Ginias Sahalin's Apsaras II featured a perfected Minovsky craft system that was much more stable in atmospheric flight. Elpeo Ple has at least eleven such clones, such as Ple Two and Marida Cruz, and Char Aznable served as the basis for Full Frontal, who was genetically modified to resemble Char rather than born with an identical genome. Ochiai also mentioned the idea in his book "The Age of Magic" saying "The people using computers has a greater power of understanding", and admitted that this view is influenced by Newtype in Gundam.[13]. The nuclear equation was: (energy released: 18.35 MeV) These devices, distributed across the machine's outer surface, are used for changing direction and performing fine movements - or attitude control, in technical jargon. However, since these devices are unable to survive the explosion of a mobile suit's main reactor, research continues into the core block system and other escape mechanisms. The core block system used in the Earth Federation's RX series, meanwhile, is too expensive for mass production. 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. Designed as an anti-newtype system, the system however has the trapped soul of a young newtype girl who wishes to kill herself. 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. Developed by the Earth Federation's Newtype Labs, this system is first installed in the second unit of the MRX-009 Psyco Gundam, and is a standard feature of the MRX-010 Psyco Gundam Mark II. Perfect Grade, Master Grade, High Grade Model Instruction Manual, Bandai. This is the principle used in the space colonies, and smaller centrifugal devices are sometimes installed in spacecraft like the assault carrier White Base. Likewise, the lift-generating Minovsky craft system, which vehicles like the White Base use to float in Earth's atmosphere, isn't a true anti-gravity system.
