... material and the air flow boundary layer; that reaction occurs in the boundary layer because these materials were organic kinds of materials. But the boundary layer, even though it was at fairly high ... , very high temperatures that could be achieved by the air stream outside of the boundary layer. That was the basic concept. I studied a number of materials. Teflon was one of ...

... from what we call delaminating, you know, coming apart and making big cracks between these layers of glass fabric and that type of thing. Henry Pohl at the time was very ... rocket engine, which is this thick-walled thing made out of this plastic and reinforcing layers of glass cloth, and had a ceramic throat that we wanted to preserve the dimension ... would machine out the internal contour of the rocket engine. But the plies, or the layers, went straight from the inside diameter of the rocket engine to the outside, and a ...

... bacteria you see in fig. 1 coped with this situation by collectively producing a lubricating layer of fluid, which allowed them to swim on the hard surface. As they swim, the individual bacteria at the front push the layer forward so as to pave the way for the colony to expand. By carefully adjusting ... wall. What I have in mind is a cyborg bubble built of several layers of materials and several different layers of bacteria. The bacteria will thus function as Maxwell demons, using their ...

... slightly larger than Texas. Analyzing radar data on a computer, scientists can peel back the layers like an onion to reveal how the ice cap evolved over time. One of the ... how the features grew. "Nobody realized that there would be such complex structures in the layers, said Jack Holt, of the University of Texas at Austin's Institute for Geophysics. Holt is the lead author of the paper focusing on Chasma Boreale. The layers record a history of ice accumulation, erosion and wind transport. From that, we can recover ...

... they looked using different wavelengths of infrared light. These variations are the result of different layers or patches of material swirling around the brown dwarf in windy storms as large as Earth itself. Spitzer and Hubble see different atmospheric layers because certain infrared wavelengths are blocked by vapors of water and methane high up, while ...

... and chemical composition in the upper regions of the troposphere, the lowest layer of Earth's atmosphere. The tropopause layer between the troposphere and stratosphere, 8 miles to 11 miles above Earth ... of the physical processes occurring in the tropical tropopause layer. ATTREX will use the Global Hawk to carry instruments to sample this layer near the equator off the coast of Central America ...

... projected the impacts of HFC gases on the atmosphere by the year 2050. The ozone layer comprises a belt of ozone molecules located primarily in the lower stratosphere. It is responsible ... worldwide in 2010. While HCFCs contain chlorine atoms, they are less damaging to the ozone layer because they also contain hydrogen atoms, which causes them to break down in the atmosphere ... a major step towards understanding the effect of HFCs on the stratosphere and the ozone layer,” said Paul Newman, a co-author on the paper and chief scientist for Earth sciences ...

... Kennedy Space Center in Florida. '''NASA's Next Ozone Layer Instrument Arrives at Launch Site''' RELEASE: 15-062 NASA's Next Ozone Layer Instrument Arrives at Launch Site A NASA instrument to monitor aerosols, the ozone layer, and other gases in our atmosphere from space arrived ... will help scientists get a better idea of the state of recovery in the ozone layer along with other key aerosol measurements that will provide further insight into the trends and ...

... that debris from the comet added a temporary and very strong layer of ions to the ionosphere, the electrically charged layer high above Mars. In these observations, scientists were able to make ... of debris from a specific meteor shower to the formation of this kind of transient layer in response; that is a first on any planet, including Earth. Comet C/2013 A1 ... the instrument were smeared by the passage of the radar signals through the temporary ion layer created by the comet's dust. SHARAD scientists used this smearing to determine that the ...
