Scientific paper

The paper deals with two subjects under the current title. The first presents the "Glass Ocean Concept" and the second deals with the "Energy Transmission System" from the moon. The "Glass Ocean Concept": For activities on the moon, it is important for us to secure energy in the nighttime. The moon has a night that lasts for a period of approximately 14 days and has a surface temperature that drops to approximately -170 C on the equator. For human beings and equipment to carry out a mission on the moon for a long period, it is a significant challenge in the moon exploitation/ utilization concept to secure a steady energy source, including the protection of both human beings and equipment against such a severe cold environment on the moon. This article is intended to deal with the "Glass Ocean System" which was studied for fiscal 1994 as a new concept system capable of supplying a stable energy produced on the moon. The "Energy Transmission System": As one of the future key power sources, a solar thermal power satellite or a moon power plant is likely to operate so that the electricity generated in space will be transmitted to earth. Discussed herein is the feasibility of a wireless power transmission from a moon power station as a power generating system in space.
