Well, our favorite energy is electricity and we use a lot of it in space. We use it for lighting, heating, communications, motors, and many other things. We can produce electricity using fuel cells, large arrays of solar cells, solar dynamic generators—for example, parabolic mirrors that concentrate the Sun's rays on a sodium pump, nuclear generators, and of course, batteries. If we had a ...

There are several options for power systems on Mars. Solar arrays have been successfully used on robotic missions, but they are susceptible to interference from Martian dust storms. Small nuclear reactors are a likely choice due to the abundant energy they provide. Mars shows extensive signs of ancient volcanic activity and many scientists believe that geothermal power may be an option for use on ...

... Existing theories could not explain either the pulsations or the location of the x-ray source. Scientists had posited that energetic oxygen and sulfur ions steadily precipitate from Jupiter’s ... originate from a steady precipitation of ions in the inner magnetosphere. Although this discovery invalidated previous theories, scientists were not yet able to explain the process they had observed. ...

Riccardo Giacconi of American Science and Engineering, Inc., and Dr. Sandage reported that second starlike source of intense x rays had been discovered by Oct. 11 sounding rocket and later ... stars are formed. Princeton Univ. physicist Dr. Robert H. Dicke revealed an observation that might invalidate Einstein's general theory of relativity. Dr. Dicke told the conference that his experiments showed ...
