Abstract

A spacecraft includes a body defining an interior payload region and a particle dispersion layer disposed between the interior payload region and one or more exterior surfaces of the body. The particle dispersion layer is formed of one or more magnets having a persistent magnetic field. The spacecraft including the particle dispersion layer may be manufactured by obtaining a particle dispersion layer having a persistent magnetic field, identifying a directionality of the persistent magnetic field of the particle dispersion layer, and installing the particle dispersion layer between an interior payload region formed by a body of a spacecraft and one or more exterior surfaces of the body according to the identified directionality of the persistent magnetic field.
