Magnetic-Field Modulation of Gravity: Martian, Lunar, and Time-Varying Gravity

Magnetic micro-gravity is used to simulate on Earth gravity conditions that occur on the moon, Mars or in interstellar space. The possibilities offered by this magnetic method are theoretically studied so as to develop ground-based devices enabling one to simulate various gravity conditions. The results of this theoretical study focus on perfect gravity compensation (micro-gravity), partial gravity compensation (lunar or Martian gravity) and also transient gravity compensation (acceleration or deceleration phases of spaceships).
