Although most can argue fictional technologies carry no real-life impact, these technologies are referred to in almost all of the series of Universal Century. The disruption of electromagnetic radiation is due to the small lattice of the I-field creating fringes that long wavelengths cannot penetrate, and that diffract wavelengths that have similar distance with the fringes. These form-fitting space suits provide a minimum of impediment to the pilot's movements. [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. 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. 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 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. Written by mechanical designer Katoki Hajime, 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. Designed as an anti-newtype system, the system however has the trapped soul of a young newtype girl who wishes to kill herself. A shock-absorbing device which becomes a standard feature of mobile suit cockpits around U.C. The linear seat technology was invented to address this issue. The bio-sensor could also have a rather surprising side effect when the pilot was mentally and emotionally focused enough (usually when angry or upset) to cause the bio-sensor to amplify the power, speed and strength of the mobile suit for a short period of time. Among them being having a five minute time usage so it wouldn't kill its pilot and the fact that it doesn't discriminate against real Newtypes and Cyber-Newtypes. Also, significant quantities of helium-3 were recently discovered on the moon, although there is certainly much more on Jupiter. Thanks to his massive intellect and high . 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) 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. They are equipped with a small beam cannon and an energy cell to propel the funnel when it is operating. The Federation did not know of the existence of this variant of Gundarium until Anaheim Electronics gives them theRMS-108 Marasaias a political gesture. By doing this, a Mobile Suit's reaction time is increased by 20-30%. 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 The shelf nozzles installed on Crossbone Vanguard command mobile suits like the XM-04 Berga Dalas and XM-05 Berga Giros are examples of this external device concept. Also allows the user to use wire-guided weapons. Cyclotron Power Core. 0120 era. Minovsky Ultracompact Fusion Reactor: : Pilot Only, Cockpit on Chest: : Nanomachine Infused Gundanium Alloy: ; : Relum Dominatus; Field Imperium; Deus ex Machina (Imperator and Centurio Tria only) ; (Centurio) Blade Luminarium; Launcher Geminus (Centurio Auxilius) 3 x Wing Unit Blade Luminarium . 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. Because Sides sometimes share a single Lagrangian point, it is possible to have two Sides in close orbit to one another. Essentially, it was an inner frame that incorporated all the mobile suit's vital mechanisms, including the cockpit, the generator, and the actuators and control systems required for movement. It provides a type of sacrificial protection against any type of beam weapon. The Minovsky particles that form the I-field lattice also helped catalyze the fusion reaction, in a process similar to the muon-catalyzed fusion investigated by real-world scientists during the 1950s. 0085. 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. While a normal aircraft obtains lift from the difference in airflow speed between the upper and lower surfaces of its wings, a wave rider flying at supersonic speeds concentrates the shock waves under its lower surface and obtains lift from the resulting pressure, essentially riding on these shock waves. These tanks use a two-layered construction, with one layer containing propellant, and the other holding extra coolant. The JEF would travel from Earth to Jupiter, which has a high level of helium-3 in its atmosphere, and then come back to Earth with the gas fuel. The image displayed on this screen is a computer simulation constructed from the cameras distributed around the mobile suit's exterior. The first variant to Titanium Alloy, this version is both stronger and lighter than titanium alloy. 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 Minovsky particles produced as a byproduct of the helium-3 fusion reaction were recycled to keep that reaction going. The tail stabilator continues to be used on MS developed after U.C.0087, an example is the RGZ-91 Re-GZ. These are supplemented by infra-red and laser sensors for precision targeting. Born on December 2, 1923 to Tetter and Ivana Minovsky in Moscow, Yuri was born into a Party family. 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. Powerplant: Minovsky type ultracompact fusion reactor, output rated at 3,980 kW Propulsion: . The mobile suit was originally conceived of as a powered space suit to extend the human operator's own capabilities, and the term "manipulator" is inherited from the artificial arms used in powered suits. The balloon emerges from the cockpit's console panel at the moment of impact, and then immediately deflates again. 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. [20][21] AMBAC works by leveraging Isaac Newton's Third Law of Motion (when there's an action there is an equal and opposite reaction) with regard to inertia to effect changes in direction. Infra-red sensors can be used for long-range enemy detection. 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. The Mobile Suit Epoch Vol. A device that generates lift from shock waves like those produced during atmospheric entry. When this propellant is discharged through the rocket nozzles, it creates a counter-force in the opposite direction, generating thrust. It should be noted that in real physics, helium-3-deuterium fusion produces neutrons due to inevitable deuterium-deuterium reactions. The RMS-106 Hizack, a Federation mobile suit that incorporated Zeon technology, used a fluid pulse/field motor hybrid system. propellant tank. An extra plate of armor carried on a mobile suit's arm. 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. During the One Year War, the researchers of the Flanagan Institute discover that Newtypes emit powerful thoughtwaves - similar to regular brainwaves, but not electrical in nature - which they call psycho-waves. Electricity can be obtained directly from the reactor core via magnetohydrodynamics (MHD), and the heat emitted by the reactor can also be converted to electrical power using turbines. If controlled, the particles can form fringes of different widths and further interfere with electromagnetic waves of shorter wavelengths. [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. 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. The Minovsky particles produced as a byproduct of the helium-3 fusion reaction were recycled to keep that reaction going. Thus, they are immune to effects of N-jammers, as fusion reactors lack free neutron to disrupt! 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. While this could be done for space ships and naval ships, this ruled out the use of precision guided weapons, such as guided missiles. 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 protective device used by the mobile suits of the U.C. An application of Minovsky physics, this system used the interaction of I-fields and Minovsky particles to achieve far lighter weight and higher output than an electric motor. 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. The list of authors can be seen in the page history there. [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." Developed by Char Aznable's Neo-Zeon, the Psycoframe allowed a Mobile Suit to be controlled by a Newtype pilot as if it were an extension of their own body, giving it greater response time. [19] The AMBAC system 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. 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. MS Encyclopedia, ISBN / 4-89189-336-2, Bandai, 10th Feb, 1988. [9] Some older mobile suits, such as the RGM-79SC GM Sniper Custom, were also refitted with linear seats by the time of the Gryps War.[10]. According to Gundam Sentinel Special Edition, the beam smart gun is designed to bend the output beam by up to 20 degrees. However, it had the same weakness as all other I-field Generators - the generators tend to overheat and thus force cooldowns. These issues are addressed with the development of the energy capacitor, which makes it possible to create compact beam weapons with greatly reduced power and energy requirements. Binders are technological instruments that provide extra control for the AMBAC systems. Why? 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. Notice in real life there is a similar experimental particle that could do the same thing in few thousandth of a second, which is still not practical but proves the theory to be correct. A handheld device which helps humans get around in zero-gravity environments like spacecraft hangars and space colony docks. 150K subscribers in the Gundam community. He thus was raised around politics and science the whole of his life. The system consists of a pilot seat suspended on a linear rail floating in the cockpit block. 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. Due to the strict driving speed limits enforced within space colonies, long trips are typically made using these linear cars. 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. [3] In the Cosmic Era timeline, one of the authors of Gundam Century articles (while still a high school student at that time), Shigeru Morita, who had became a regular employee of Bandai, was assigned to write these kind of technological articles, possibly a method used by the company to attract Universal Century techno fans to watch the new series.[4]. 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 AMBAC is by its nature limited to re-orienting the unit about its center of mass, and is not a substitute for propulsion. The main use of the Minovsky particle was in combat and communication. The technology is later obtained by the renegade Principality of Zeon soldiers based at the asteroid Axis. However, the full latent potential of this system can only be tapped by a Newtype pilot. [14] Side 3's colonies are identical in size and shape to the Island 3 design, but doubled the habitable area by removing the large window strips of the Island 3.[15][16][17]. 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. An I-field is used to deflect enemy mega particle beams. Unlike an I-field generator, which is effective only against beam attacks, the beam shield blocks both beam and projectile weapons. However, in March 2012, the life-sized Gundam statue at Gundam Front Tokyo was upgraded with sealed joint parts to represent having received magnet coating,[5] and sealed joints were later used to indicate the magnet coating upgrade in several Gunpla model kits, such as the Master Grade RX-78-2 Gundam 3.0. Each reactor is even further miniaturized A Ata Geta 617 followers More information 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. 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. Later, following the trend of militaristic and technological interest in the community, Gundam Sentinel Special Edition included a section called imidam 0093 (Innovative Mobile Suit Information Dictionary, Annual Series, intentionally using an m at the end to reference Gundam), subtitled Basic Knowledge of Gundam Mechanics. The wing binders concept was first utilized on MSN-00100 Hyaku Shiki as a part of its transformation system, they were originally supposed to help the mobile suit move effectively even while it is in mobile armor form. This became known as the "Minovsky Effect". Then when the motion of the arm stopped, the rotation of the body would also stop. This became known as the "Minovsky Effect". Another version of the I-Field Generator but allows the user to redirect incoming beam weapons fire back at targets. [7] Although it could be viewed as following the Star Wars trend, nothing similar has started before the 1981 publishing of Gundam Century. 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 page deals with technology from the Universal Century timeline of the Gundam fictional universe meta-series. In this mechanism, fuel pellets composed of deuterium and helium-3 are bombarded by powerful lasers or particle beams, creating a series of tiny fusion explosions. 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. These shelf nozzles are movable thrusters attached to the mobile suit's backpack, whose flexibility also allows them to be used for AMBAC maneuvering. The Minovsky Drive allowed the ship to reach incredible speeds, such that it could travel between Earth and Jupiter over the course of a few weeks instead of the months it takes other ships. 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]. While researcher (associate professor in the University of Tsukuba) and media artist Yoichi Ochiai viewed this in the science angle and said that even currently, if computers are not working right, things will get really weak, mixing in analogue in the machine is a correct choice and the setting is excellent. Mobile suits performing AMBAC motions would presumably move similarly to present-day astronauts performing extra-vehicular activity: both typically having roughly similar body structure, their use of that mass to control their rotation would presumably be similar, even if calculated by different means. 0090. In this fashion, the reactor provides the mobile suit with an abundant supply of electricity. A helium-3 atom is fused with a deuterium atom (heavy hydrogen) to form the stable helium-4 and a single proton. This device sprays a sticky sealant (also known as "birdlime"), similar to the wall film used to mend breaches in warship hulls. 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, the system has a number of flaws to it. Mobile suits performing AMBAC motions would presumably move similarly to present-day astronauts performing extra-vehicular activity: both typically having roughly similar body structure, their use of that mass to control their rotation would presumably be similar, even if calculated by different means. The mobile suit does not need to spend much energy to compress the Minovsky particles; instead, most of the compression was done by the mother-ship and the mobile suit only needed to provide minimum energy for triggering the final degeneration energy.[16][17][26]. 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. 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. Known Pilots Gabriel Gilbert Technical Specifications Height 21.4 meters Power Plant Nuclearlite Catalyst Minovsky Ultracompact Fusion Reactor Fixed Armaments Double Beam Machine-gun x 2 (located in Mobile Suite Wrists) Small Beam Cutter x 2 (located on Elbows) Handheld Armaments Beam Pistol/Beam Rifle (stored in racks on lower back) Minovsky in his earlier days when he was serving the Earth Federation, was still a piece of black box technology and rendered him a heretic in the classical physics community (where classical in the Universal Century includes the modern physics of today). Performance: unknown . The nuclear equation was: (energy released: 18.35 MeV) Dimensions: head height 23.0 meters Weight: empty 23.6 metric tons; max gross 52.4 metric tons Armor materials: Gundarium alloy Powerplant: Minovsky type ultracompact fusion reactor, output rated at 3,340 kW Propulsion: rocket thrusters: 56,000 kg total Performance: unknown Equipment and design features: sensors, range 19,300 meters The Principality forces based at the asteroid Axis succeed in miniaturizing the psycommu system, so that it can be installed in regular-sized mobile suits like the AMX-004 Qubeley. Mobile suit pilots have to endure much higher acceleration forces than aircraft pilots, caused by maneuvering and engaging in close combat in a mobile suit. Besides being mounted on transformable mobile suit, it is also used by non-transforming units such as PMX-003 The O. However All Record Breaker units, their spare parts, and all data on the "wings of light" were lost. Doctor Minovsky went on to develop a functional thermonuclear fusion reactor. A standard piece of mobile suit technology, the balancer, sometimes called balance controller or auto-balancer by different authors, is the device responsible for keeping a mobile suit upright. After the One Year War, the material is further refined by renegade Principality of Zeon soldiers at the asteroid base Axisand later given to Anaheim Electronics. 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. It emits high-energy Minovsky particles to form a blade-shaped I-field (via manipulation of electromagnetic fields), and then fills this I-field shell with superheated Minovsky particle plasma to produce an effective cutting blade. Installed on the XM-07 Vigna Ghina, these devices are improved versions of the shelf nozzle used by other Crossbone Vanguard command mobile suits. Its most ironic flaw is that, because of the massive stress to gives its pilots, a Newtype is the best pilot for the unit. During the One Year War, the Principality of Zeon adapts the Dodai YS bomber into a flying platform for transporting mobile suits through Earth's atmosphere. This frame was completely separate from the sensors, thrusters, armor, weapons and propellant tanks. 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. This system was latter used by the RX-0 Unicorn Gundam. At the same time, high-end models fielded by League Militaire such as V Gundam and V2 Gundam, have equipped an improved version of the Minovsky craft system called the Minovsky flight system. 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 (, Minofusuk ryshi) or "M" particle. A variant of the psycommu system, developed by Anaheim Electronics and experimentally installed in the MSZ-006 Zeta Gundam in attempt to build a smaller-scale, more economical psycommu system. The nuclear equation was: This is essentially the same equation as used in classical physics, with the addition of the fictional Minovsky particle as a catalyst, instead of a muon. This arrangement is highly effective for judging distances and three-dimensional positions in space, and its performance is many times better than that of the mono-eye used in the Principality of Zeon's mobile suits. This allows a Newtype pilot to control the mobile suit as if it were his/her own body. The viewpoint is that of the mobile suit's head, and the image is carefully edited to remove the mobile suit itself. The semi-transparent coating is not useful in countering anything other than lasers, thus a new technology has to be developed. For this reason, it was adopted for use on mobile suits as the standard power plant. 0090 era. 0050, these space colonies are home to 80% of the human race. [7][8] The first mass production mobile suit that adopted the linear seat was the RMS-106 Hizack. As a result, the unit performed well against more conventional mobile suits and showed superiority in manoeuvrability. The assault carrier Albion is one of the few military vessels designed to use this system. However, seeing the horror of the Zabi family's militaristic regime, Minovsky defected back and offered his expertise to the Federation. However, his inventions were applied very differently by the Earth Federation. Welcome to r/Gundam! The balancers are placed all across the body of the mobile suit's frame, with primary systems being located in the limbs. A prototype transformable Man-Machine developed by Metatron, the Gaia Gear is a ultra high-performance unit built during the pinnacle of Universal Century era technology. In U.C. A lightweight type of normal suit designed for combat pilots. As such, a gun that does not need to be pointed directly at the target is more dangerous.[16][22]. Powerplant: Minovsky type ultracompact fusion reactor, power output rating unknown Propulsion: unknown Performance: unknown Equipment and design features: sensors, range unknown Fixed armaments: 2 x beam saber, stored in recharge racks on backpack, hand-carried in use; 2 x vulcan gun, mounted in head Thankfully, those with strong wills can overpower the system and determine when it can activate. 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. After the war, the Earth Federation Forces refine this concept into a dedicated mobile suit support device, substantially reducing its cost. Furthermore, if the pilot wears a compatible normal suit, the suit itself can be affixed to the seat, with no need for seatbelts. As with the EXAM system, the HADES provides a temporary increase in equipped mobile suit's performance along with increased reaction times to the pilot. 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. After the war, when the linear floating seat and 360-degree panoramic screen become standard equipment, this problem is addressed by turning the entire cockpit assembly into a spherical escape pod which can be ejected in emergencies. Individual sections are also automatically deactivated whenever they're in danger of coming into contact with the mobile suit itself. New MS Encyclopedia, ISBN / 4-89189-050-9, Bandai, 1st Oct, 1988. By the time of the Gryps Conflict most mobile suits have sealant launchers built into the fingers of their manipulators, as well as utility devices like signal flares, dummy dispensers, and fire extinguishers. 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. Thanks to this interference, warfare in the Universal Century era relies heavily on visual sensors, which can be tricked by inflatable decoys. According to the timeline deduced by the Gundam Officials, in UC 0071, Zeon researchers created the Minovsky ultracompact fusion reactor . 0079 for their Mobile Suits. 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. The idea is simple: "If four limbs can manoeuvre the unit better than none, why not equip them with 5 or more?" The resulting advancement is the tail binder. A new type of cockpit display, typically used in conjunction with a linear floating seat. The system is similar in principle to the momentum wheel system used in present day satellites, though obviously more complex. Even military vehicles, like the missile trucks used by colony defense forces, run on electrical batteries. The contact link is an alternative means of short-range voice communication. [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. The need for this process came as the higher-ups realized that, despite the RX-78-2 Gundam's amazingly continued performance, there was one major flaw to it - its pilot, Amuro Ray, whose Newtype abilities were overwhelming the unit.
