... it. Specific energy can also be improved by the use of off-board energy sources. Examples that have been suggested include beaming energy to the vehicle with lasers or microwaves; the use of oxygen in the atmosphere early in the ...
... affected by the lack of gravity and normal atmosphere. New methods and technologies were required to overcome such difficulties. Such technologies were first tried out on animals such as dogs, monkeys and chimpanzees sent into space on sub-orbital flights. Check out some of the firsts associated with this: Squirrel monkey "Baker" rode a Jupiter ...
... the baskets as they slide down the wire. The angle of the slide wire causes the baskets to move the astronauts as far away from the Space Shuttle as possible. The braking system stops the baskets from hitting the ground too hard. Once launched, the ...
... it is possible to have an aquarium in micro-gravity. Aquariums have been carried aboard the Space Shuttle, but only for scientific experiments. These highly sophisticated aquariums help us study whether fish can survive in the ... that seen on Earth. The Japanese Medaka Fish taken to the International Space Station (ISS) as part of a student experiment swam upside down, as they could not sense the ...
... miles before the extreme atmospheric pressure crushed it. As the wreckage continued to descend, it likely melted and vaporized in the extreme heat. In addition, the radiation near Jupiter is at least 25 times more powerful than the dose considered deadly to humans.

... that may be necessary if it is to fly through atmospheres like those on Earth or on Mars. The NASA Space Shuttle orbiter is designed with wings and a tail because it ... the atmosphere to land on Earth. But if a spacecraft is to operate entirely in the vacuum of space, it need not be designed like a plane. For example, the Apollo lunar module that landed men on the ...

... could be accessible through speech and Braille output. Navigational technology may be developed as people imagine and build ways for blind people to drive cars on Earth. Efforts through the National Federation of the Blind are currently underway to encourage the development of such technologies. By the time private space travel is a reality, we may have developed the ...
... days The rovers cannot function indefinitely. Over time, they will be unable to store enough heat in the daytime to prevent the temperature of their components from falling too low. Eventually, the cold will cause the rovers' systems to fail.
