Marshall Space Flight Center Marshall Space Flight Center, Alabama 35812 Introduction "...both leadership in technolog4F and science and partnerships with other countries, those are the keys to our fitture as a peopl¢; to our standard of living, to our qualitv of life, as well as to our ability to continue the American tradition of exploring frontiers." President Clinton June 22, 1993 Twenty years ago, the challenge of putting a scientific laboratory into space led to the first Space Station--Skylab. Ten years ago, the first reusable .space-based scientific laboratory--Spacelab-- was launched aboard the Space Shuttle Columbia. On the anniversaries of these two highly successful missions, we are reminded of the numerous benefits that come from meeting such challenges. Both Skvlab and Spacelab propelled the development of new technologies to over- come the limitations imposed by gravity and by space travel. In addition to spurring new innovations, our unique view from space has given us insights into the workings of our own planet--and our place in the cosmos--that otherwise would not have been possible. The Spacelab program continues to provide a workshop for new scientific investigation and information. From its inception, the National Aeronautics and Space Administration has invested in technological developments that have led to improvements in life on Earth, in fields ranging from aviation and agriculture, to communications and computers, to medicine. Some recent technology transfer projects, as well as possible opportunities to work with MSFC resources, are highlighted in this book. Research and TechnoloRy 1993: Annual Report of the Marshall Space Plight Center features articles by some of the scientists and engineers who help make programs such as Ski,lab and Spacelab come alive. The diverse work that has been accom- plished over the past year continues the Center's tradition of technological innovation and scientific discovery and prepares us for whatever challenges the future may hold. ..z T.J.

  • The Journey to Mars: How Donna Shirley Broke Barriers for Women in Space Engineering
    The Journey to Mars: How Donna Shirley Broke Barriers for Women in Space Engineering Laurel Mossman, Kate Schein, and Amelia Peoples Senior Division Group Documentary Word Count: 499 Our group chose the topic, Donna Shirley and her Mars rover, because of our connections and our interest level in not only science but strong, determined women. One of our group member’s mothers worked for a man under Ms. Shirley when she was developing the Mars rover. This provided us with a connection to Ms. Shirley, which then gave us the amazing opportunity to interview her. In addition, our group is interested in the philosophy of equality and we have continuously created documentaries that revolve around this idea. Every member of our group is a female, so we understand the struggles and discrimination that women face in an everyday setting and wanted to share the story of a female that faced these struggles but overcame them. Thus after conducting a great amount of research, we fell in love with Donna Shirley’s story. Lastly, it was an added benefit that Ms. Shirley is from Oklahoma, making her story important to our state. All of these components made this topic extremely appealing to us. We conducted our research using online articles, Donna Shirley’s autobiography, “Managing Martians”, news coverage from the launch day, and our interview with Donna ​ ​ Shirley. We started our research process by reading Shirley’s autobiography. This gave us insight into her college life, her time working at the Jet Propulsion Laboratory, and what it was like being in charge of such a barrier-breaking mission.

Generally domain Aircraft uses conventional fuel. These fuel having limited life, high cost and pollutant. Also nowadays price of petrol and other fuels are going to be higher, because of scarcity of those fuels. So there is great demand of use of non-exhaustible unlimited source of energy like solar energy. Solar aircraft is one of the ways to utilize solar energy. Solar aircraft uses solar panel to collect the solar radiation for immediate use but it also store the remaining part for the night flight. This paper intended to stimulate research on renewable energy sources for aviation. In future solar powered air planes could be used for different types of aerial momitoring and unmanned flights. This review paper brietly shows history, application and use of solar aircraft. We are focusing on design and fabrication of solar aircraft which is unmanned prototype. Keywords: Solar energy, Reynolds number, Bernoulli’s principle 1. INTRODUCTION Energy comes in different forms. Light is a form of energy. Sun is source of energy called “sunlight”. Sunshine is free and never gets used up Also. There is a lot of it. The sunlight that heats the Earth in an hour has more energy than the people of the world use in a year.

  • Effort to Accelerate MBSE Adoption and Usage at JSC
    Effort to Accelerate MBSE Adoption and Usage at JSC Lui Wang1 NASA Johnson Space Center, Houston, TX 77058 and Michel Izygon, Ph.D.2, Shira Okon3, Larry Garner4, and Howard Wagner, Ph.D.5 Tietronix Software Inc., Houston, TX 77058 This paper describes the authors’ experience in adopting Model Based System Engineering (MBSE) at the NASA/Johnson Space Center (JSC). Since 2009, NASA/JSC has been applying MBSE using the Systems Modeling Language (SysML) to a number of advanced projects. Models integrate views of the system from multiple perspectives, capturing the system design information for multiple stakeholders. This method has allowed engineers to better control changes, improve traceability from requirements to design and manage the numerous interactions between components. As the project progresses, the models become the official source of information and used by multiple stakeholders. Three major types of challenges that hamper the adoption of the MBSE technology are described. These challenges are addressed by a multipronged approach that includes educating the main stakeholders, implementing an organizational infrastructure that supports the adoption effort, defining a set of modeling guidelines to help engineers in their modeling effort, providing a toolset that support the generation of valuable products, and providing a library of reusable models. JSC project case studies are presented to illustrate how the proposed approach has been successfully applied. Nomenclature CAD = Computer-Aided Design CDS = Cascade Distillation System
