Residual interpretation
The ENAC inquiry concerns the possible national aircraft or operator title, the light-beam boundary and the rules for low tethered stationing above people or crowds.
Luna research portal
Research before claims.
Luna links aerostatics, light, thermal management, electronics, software, materials, safety, environmental impact, and regulation. Collaboration begins with one bounded question—not with access to the whole archive.

Current research map
Five connected research systems
The primary configuration is functional lighting from a non-propelled, tethered helium aerostat below 24 m. The regulatory review separates the known rules, three unresolved interpretation points and technical evidence still to produce.
Rules and independent checksOperating evidence
People, site, airspace, weather, restraint, manuals, insurance and emergency limits require configuration-specific engineering and operational work.
Measured evidence
Mass, thermal response, wind stability, angular light distribution, control behaviour and materials require instrumented tests. The opaque envelope and its transparent lower portion of the closed envelope define a design configuration; angular photometry still requires measurements.
Ways to collaborate
A role follows the evidence you can own.
University or laboratory
A defined model, measurement, material, safety, or prototype work package with named reviewers and reproducible outputs.
Technical professional
A bounded review or engineering contribution whose scope, confidentiality, responsibility, and outputs are agreed before access.
Potential co-founder path
A sustained, high-impact collaboration may open a separate co-founder discussion. It is never automatic and requires mutual due diligence, corporate approvals, and a written agreement.
Collaboration sequence
Scope. Access. Evidence. Review.
- 01
Propose one contribution
Explain the question, methods, competence, time, facilities, data needs, and expected output through the private area.
- 02
Define boundaries
Agree supervision, confidentiality, intellectual-property boundaries, safety, source access, and the decision the work should support.
- 03
Produce reproducible evidence
Calculations, code, CAD, test logs, data, uncertainties, assumptions, and negative results remain traceable.
- 04
Review before publication
A draft result never becomes a public product claim without technical, legal, and publication review.
Protected proposal intake
Bring a question worth testing.
