Title: Human Exploration – It’s Not a Book of Knowledge … It’s a Journey Every parent remembers that magical time when our children first began to speak, that moment marking the beginning of unending questions. In our children we can see our humanity — our innate curiosity — and recognize the obvious … that we are born to explore! Science and more generally STEM, in all its seeming complexity, is nothing but a means to organize curiosity. It is a way to empower one’s self to ask the gift of a question, and to hone the art that allows navigation through the noise of the universe around us in quest of an answer. It is an emotional, joyful, and wondrous journey that hopefully allows the Saturday, Feb. 6 2:30 p.m. (Northrop Grumman Theater) Alan Bean (Captain, USN, RET) Alan Bean was one of the third group of astronauts named by NASA in October 1963. He served as backup astronaut for the Gemini 10 and Apollo 9 missions. Captain Bean was lunar module pilot on Apollo 12, mans second lunar landing. In November 1969, Captain Bean and Captain Pete Conrad landed in the moons Ocean of Storms after a flight of some 250,000 miles. They explored the lunar surface and deployed several lunar surface experiments. Captain Bean was spacecraft commander of Skylab Mission II (SL-3), July 29 to September 25, 1973. On his next assignment, Captain Bean was backup spacecraft commander of the United States flight crew for the joint American- Russian Apollo-Soyuz Test Project. Captain Bean has logged 1,671 hours and 45 minutes in space, of which 10 hours and 26 minutes were spent in EVAs on the moon and in earth orbit. Captain Bean has flown 27 types of military aircraft as well as many civilian airplanes. He has logged more than 7,145 hours flying time including 4,890 hours in jet aircraft. Captain Bean retired from the Navy in October 1975 but continued as head of the Astronaut Candidate Operations and Training Group within the Astronaut Office in a civilian capacity. Mike Foreman (Captain, US NAVY, RET) Selected by NASA in June 1998, he reported for training in August 1998. A veteran of two space flights, Foreman flew on STS-123 in March 2008, and STS-129 in November 2009, and has logged more than 637 hours in space, including 32 hours and 19 minutes of EVA in five spacewalks. His first flight, STS-123 Endeavour (March 11 to March 26, 2008), was a night launch and landing. It was the 25th shuttle/station assembly mission. While on the station, Foreman performed three space- walks for a total of 19 hours and 34 minutes of EVA. STS-129 (November 16 to November 29, 2009) was the 31st shuttle flight to the International Space Station. During the mission, Foreman performed two spacewalks for a total of 12 hours and 45 minutes of EVA. Kjell N. Lingren (MD) Dr. Lindgren was selected in June 2009 as one of 14 members of the 20th NASA astronaut class. Follow- ing the completion of two years of training and evaluation, he was assigned technical duties in the Spacecraft Communicator (CAPCOM) branch and Extravehicular Activity (EVA) branch. Dr. Lindgren served as lead CAPCOM for ISS Expedition 30. On Expedition 44/45 (July 2015 to December 2015), with crewmates Russian Space Agency cosmonaut Oleg Kononenko and Japanese astronaut Kimiya Yui, Lindgren launched on the Soyuz TMA-17M (callsign Antares) from the Baikonur Cosmodrome in Kazakh- stan on July 23, 2015, During their 141 days aboard the station, the Antares crew participated in over a hundred different scientific experiments, including research in human physiology, fluid and combustion physics, Earth and space science and technology development. Their research included work with the “Veggie” lettuce experiment, which represented the first time a US crew has gotten to eat a crop grown on orbit. Dr. Lindgren and Exp 45 commander Scott Kelly conducted 2 spacewalks in late 2015.

    Kazakhstan blocks Russian satellite launches: reports 28 May 2012 Kommersant. The launches that are set to be shelved or already postponed are the launch of European meterorological satellite MetOp-B that had been due May 23, the launch of Belarussian, Canadian, German and two Russian satellites on June 7 and the launch of Russian satellite Resurs-P in August. It is not clear how and when the seven satellites will now be launched. There is no suggestion however that the dispute Russian police officers guard the Soyuz TMA-22 rocket will affect manned launches from Baikonur which of the International Space Station (ISS) Expedition 30 also use a Soyuz rocket but whose debris usually during its transportation to a launch pad in the Russian- leased Kazakh Baikonur cosmodrome in 2011. falls in a different zone. Kazakhstan, which hosts Russia's Baikonur cosmodrome, is blocking three upcoming Russian Kommersant said one possible reason for the satellite launches because of a dispute over the drop dispute is Russia's building of a new cosmodrome zone for rocket debris.

  • Passive No Moving Parts Capillary Solutions for Spacecraft Life Support Systems
    49th International Conference on Environmental Systems ICES-2019-203 7-11 July 2019, Boston, Massachusetts Passive no moving parts capillary solutions for spacecraft life support systems Mark M. Weislogel1 and Ryan M. Jenson2 IRPI LLC, Portland, Oregon, 97223 Life support systems for plant, animal, and crew habitats are replete with the challenges of managing poorly wetting aqueous solutions in a low-g environment. A brief review of noteworthy on-orbit system failures provides ample renewed motivation to understand microgravity capillary phenomena to the point such failures may be avoided in the future. Historic and recent NASA-funded low-g experiments are highlighted that greatly expand our experience base and comfort level to prepare for and preferably exploit capillary forces. Our specific aim is to replace the passive role of gravity on earth with the combined passive roles of surface tension, wetting, and container geometry in space. We demonstrate a general approach highlighting high-TRL examples pertinent to urine collection and processing. From this specific example we demonstrate more specific applications to passive in-line separator devices, beverage cups, and bio-sample de-bubblers. Broader applications can be made to other challenging processes such as brine drying, condensing heat exchangers, liquid sorbent CO2 scrubbers, wet lab unit operations, and habitats for plants and animals. I. Introduction n earth, we take it for granted how gravity passively separates gases from liquids. In space, however, without O buoyancy, nearly all fluids to various degrees become mixtures of gases and liquids that can be difficult to re- separate. In other words, most fluid systems aboard spacecraft are or become multiphase fluid systems.

  • 2010 Spaceport News Summary
    2010 Spaceport News Summary The 2010 Spaceport News used the above banner for the year. The “Spaceport News” portion used a bolder look at the beginning of the year and finished the year with a less bold look. This feature is included on page 1 of some of the 2010 Spaceport News issues. Introduction The first issue of the Spaceport News was December 13, 1962. The 1963, 1964 and 1965 Spaceport News were issued weekly. The Spaceport News was issued every two weeks, starting July 7, 1966, until the last issue on February 24, 2014. Spaceport Magazine, a monthly issue, superseded the Spaceport News in April 2014, until the final issue, Jan./Feb. 2020. The two 1962 Spaceport News issues and the issues from 1996 until the final Spaceport Magazine issue, are available for viewing at this website. The Spaceport News issues from 1963 through 1995 are currently not available online. In this Summary, black font is original Spaceport News text, blue font is something I added or someone else/some other source provided, and purple font is a hot link. All links were working at the time I completed this Spaceport News Summary. The Spaceport News writer is acknowledged, if noted in the Spaceport News article. Starting with this Summary, the margins are left and right justified, more like a book.
