The Idea I am submitting is a very crude but a starting Idea for a manned space vehicle.
This vehicle is a single man unit that can be used instead of the space suit. It will use gyro scopes for attitude adjustment, role, pitch and yaw.
"Vacuum (Negative Energy)" as Shock Damping Energy Source.
It uses the “Contraction Force of Vacuum” as potential damping energy.
In order for the “Negative Energy(Vacuum)” to function as Shock Damping Force, it inversely structured the location of where Damping Energy is stored.
The conventional Shock Absorbers that use Positive Energy Sources, use compressed Air, Nitrogen Gas,
