Since 1976, he has\u0026nbsp;been seeking ways of flying through the cosmos\u003cbr /\u003eusing existing magnetic fields. His space project\u0026nbsp;was preceded by a substantial body of studies\u0026nbsp;and thought experiments, which Panamarenko\u0026nbsp;described in the article \u003cem\u003e\u0026lsquo;To the Stars with Flying\u0026nbsp;Saucers and Magnetic Forces\u0026rsquo;\u003c/em\u003e, published in the\u0026nbsp;1981 catalogue Struycken and Panamarenko.

Aan het ruimteproject gaan heel wat studies\u0026nbsp;en gedachte-experimenten vooraf. Panamarenko\u0026nbsp;beschrijft ze in de tekst \u003cem\u003e\u0026lsquo;Naar de sterren met vliegende\u0026nbsp;schotels en magnetische krachten\u0026rsquo;\u003c/em\u003e, die in\u0026nbsp;1981 gepubliceerd wordt in de catalogus Struycken\u003cbr /\u003een Panamarenko.

Het gaat om elektromagnetische\u0026nbsp;sculpturen waarbij een toestel met\u0026nbsp;schijven, assen, tandraderen en spoelen een klein\u0026nbsp;metalen plaatje optilt. Het object \u003cem\u003eDroma\u003c/em\u003e, afgeleid\u0026nbsp;van het Griekse woord dromos, dat snelle loop betekent,\u0026nbsp;heeft twee elektromotoren en bovenaan\u0026nbsp;een ronde schijf met magneten die zeer snel om\u0026nbsp;haar as draait.
