New research and technology demonstrations for NASA are set to launch aboard the agency’s SpaceX 30th commercial resupply services mission to the
International Space Station. The SpaceX Dragon cargo resupply spacecraft will deliver more than 6,000 pounds of scientific research, supplies, and hardware to the orbiting laboratory.
The SpaceX Dragon spacecraft will arrive at the space station and dock autonomously to the zenith port of the station’s Harmony module at approximately 7:30 a.m. Saturday, March 23. Live coverage of the rendezvous and docking will begin at 5:30 a.m. NASA astronauts Loral O’Hara and Mike Barratt will monitor the arrival of the spacecraft, which will stay docked to the orbiting laboratory for about one month before splashing down and returning critical science and hardware to teams on Earth.
Reflectometry technology is low-cost, light, and energy efficient. Its potential applications on Earth include providing data for weather and climate models and improving the understanding of ocean phenomena such as surface winds and storm surge. Marc Elmouttie, project lead for Commonwealth Scientific and Industrial Research Organization, with the Multi-resolution Scanner hardware and Astrobee robot ready for final pre-flight testing.investigation examines how nanoparticles and microparticles interact within an electrical field. A process called nanoparticle haloing uses charged nanoparticles to enable precise particle arrangements that improve the efficiency of quantum-dot synthesized solar cells, according to Stuart J.
