Abstract
AbstractThe possibility of orienting very large ultra-light balloon-like MW antennas, orbiting in the Earth magnetic field, through electric currents flowing in Cu wires embedded in the antennas walls, are examined. It is shown that such currents may easily provide the needed forces without the necessity of mechanically orienting the antenna itself.
