Ulyana Sharapova

Admission to The University of Chicago and Research on Space Energy

About the Program and AcademX Support

Ulyana completed the AcademX research program under the guidance of experts in space technologies and global energy systems. We helped her build a clear research structure, prepare a scientific paper, and get ready for her presentation at an international conference in Belgium.

Research Topic

Space energy and its potential as a future source of clean energy.

Essence of the Work

Ulyana examined two promising space-based energy technologies — solar power satellites and solar wind harvesting systems. Her research assessed their technical capabilities, economic feasibility, environmental impact, and key technological challenges.

The work demonstrated that space-based energy could become a sustainable alternative to terrestrial energy sources if issues related to power transmission and the environmental footprint of launches are addressed.
