Method and System for Wireless Power Transmission In Space

Described herein is a method for wireless transmission of energy in space, wherein a constellation of transmitting satellites orbiting around a celestial body, such as the planet (P) Earth or the Moon (L), are equipped with a laser apparatus for sending a beam of coherent electromagnetic waves to an orbiting satellite or another receiving target, such as a mobile vehicle or a fixed base on said generic celestial body, in order to transmit energy thereto. The total power transmitted is divided among the orbiting satellites in the constellation, resulting in less contraindications than in the case of a single transmitting system with equivalent total power. The advantage of such division among a constellation of satellites mainly consists of shorter periods of solar eclipse, since sunlight is necessary for the operation of the transmission system. The receiving target or satellite converts the beam of electromagnetic waves into electric energy.
