FIG. 6 illustrates additional aspects of the structural details of FIG. 5. One of the advantages of the double helicon plasma beam generator is that it generates plasma with a high electron density, which increases the plasma frequency and therefore increases the deflection and reflection of incoming electromagnetic radiation. The incoming electromagnetic radiation will not propagate if the plasma frequency is higher than that of the electromagnetic radiation. When electromagnetic radiation frequencies are higher than the plasma frequency, a portion of the electromagnetic radiation will be absorbed, reflected, and deflected by the plasma beam 134.

FIG. 7 illustrates an alternate version of the Earth satellite of FIG. 3. In FIG. 7, example Earth satellite 100′ includes additional tank 131, which may store solids, liquids, or gasses for injection into the plasma 132. Since an objective of the Earth satellite 100′ is to control heat, improving the reflection factor plasma cloud may improve the operation of the Earth satellite 100′. This improvement may be achieved by injecting solid, liquid, or gasses into the plasma 132; this additional operation mimics nature, where oxygen, nitrogen, and ozone reduce the Earth's exposure to UV light and radiation. Metals with high frequencies such as aluminum and silver also may be candidates for injection into the plasma 132 to increase the reflection factor.
