The disclosure relates to space science and space transportation, in particular, to the area of commercial exploitation of outer space, and, namely—to the structure of multiple-mission geospatial transportation complex and method of operation thereof, based on the principle of non-rocket ‘planet surface to planned circular orbit’ payload insertion. A general planetary geospatial transportation complex, according to a first variant includes a general planetary vehicle encircling the planet along the line of the planet surface cross-section by the plane parallel to plane of the equator, fastened, on launch overpass of specified altitude, and represents a linear bearing structure encircling the planet, comprising pressure hull with the special endless linear flywheels, equipped with systems of magnetic and/or electromagnetic suspension and linear electromagnetic drives. For a general planetary geospatial transportation complex, it is distinctive that the present intended use is to solve the set of geospatial problems in industrial-scale volumes, for instance, for the purpose of relocation of ecologically harmful portion of earth-based manufacturing into near space and non-rocket space industrialization, as well as stabilization of the global climate.

An electric propulsion module coupled to a spacecraft capable of providing thrust at a level required for multi-burn orbit transfer is disclosed herein. The electric propulsion system includes an electric propulsion thruster, a propellant tank and an energy storage device. In one form the energy storage device is a battery operable to provide sufficient power to maneuver the spacecraft quickly to avoid space debris and/or move to a different orbit through a multi-burn thrust procedure.

A space vehicle may extract and store energy, and also include a propulsion system. The space vehicle includes one or more wings connected to a body of the apparatus. Each of the one or more wings includes a propellant system configured to eject mass away from the apparatus, the ejection of the mass causes the apparatus to move from a first position to a second position.
