47 SPACE DISPOSAL OF HAZARDOUS WASTE The analysis of the ecological situation involving the increasing amount of waste of the atomic power stations shows that the issue of the waste isolating becomes extremely urgent for mankind. Isolation in space shall enable the globe to get rid of the long-lasting radioactive wastes forever unlike any other ways of burial on the planet.

48 COMMERCIAL AIRCRAFT PROTECTION

49 SPATIAL DISPLACEMENT OF THERMAL IMAGE SDTI technology is a novel countermeasure to the threat posed by Man- Portable Aircraft Defense Systems (MANPADS), which are typically heatseeking surface-to-air guided missiles targeted at aircraft by individual/ terrorists in the vicinity of airports. Unique countermeasure system is based on rocket engine technologies and generates the signals which jam the infrared guidance systems of the missile with high probability. The system provides a highly innovative concept for civilian aircraft protection from potential terrorist attacks by heat-seeking missiles during the whole phase of mission: take-off, flight and landing.

50 SDTI ADVANTAGES Low cost SDTI is expected to be less than half the cost of the countermeasure technologies currently being tested and evaluated for commercial use. No missile warning system required SDTI is a passive countermeasure; it operates continuously during ascent and descent (while the aircraft is vulnerable to MANPADS missiles). The system requires no missile detection and tracking sensor, and hence generates no false alarms. SDTI is equally effective against multiple simultaneous missile launches. Other directed countermeasures can only defeat one missile at a time. Airline friendly SDTI does not include any classified hardware or software and requires no special operator training. Low power requirement the Gas Dynamic Thermal Generator is a very efficient source of broadband IR energy.
