METHOD FOR NEUTRALIZATION OF ELECTROSTATIC CHARGE OF THE SURFACE OF A SPACECRAFT AND ITS PARTS

摘要

A method for neutralization of electrostatic charge of the surface of a spacecraft and its parts involves transfer of electrostatic charge in coulombs. To increase neutralization of electrostatic charge of a spacecraft transfer of electrostatic charge is implemented through stationary bridge of quasi-neutral plasma formed between the space apparatus and the plasma of the space or between separate electrically insulated one from another parts of the spacecraft.
