Read through the text on space travel below and then answer the questions that follow. ‘Tim Peake can be a catalyst for more UK space missions’ by Andrew Wade from ‘The Engineer’, an online newspaper If everything goes according to plan, by this time tomorrow Major Tim Peake will be back on terra firma following his six-month mission on board the International Space Station. His return home in the Soyuz capsule will see him travelling at 25 times the speed of sound, surrounded by superheated atmospheric plasma at temperatures touching 2,500°C. With the capsule already decelerating, parachutes will open about 11km above the Earth’s surface to further slow the descent, and landing engines will fire to cushion the Soyuz as it crashes into the Kazakh Steppe. Such is the force of the collision that greenhorn astronauts are warned by their Russian mentors to stop talking before impact so that they don’t bite their tongues off. As the first ever Briton to visit the ISS (and the first ever ESA astronaut from these isles), Major Peake’s space adventure has been a huge boon for both UK aerospace and for wider science and technology awareness across the country.

  • Aerospace Engineering2
    Aerospace Engineering BY TEAM 39402A Introduction to Aerospace Engineering For our career path, we chose aerospace engineer. Aerospace engineering consists of aircraft, spacecraft and satellite design and construction. Aerospace engineers also test prototypes. A prototype is a new invention that needs to be tested. We chose this career because we love space and adventure! NASA The main United States aerospace engineering company is the National Aeronautics and Space Administration, also known as NASA. This agency was created in 1958. NASA was the first space agency to get a human on the moon. Sent by NASA, Neil Armstrong, an astronaut and aeronautical engineer, was the first human to step on the moon in 1969. Now NASA is working on getting people back to the moon and going to Mars. Aircraft Aerospace engineering includes aircraft. There is one main difference between spacecraft and aircraft. Spacecraft are meant to break earth’s gravitational pull, where as aircraft are meant to stay in earth’s gravity. Aircraft also carry cargo and humans. The first airplane was created on December 17, 1903 by the Wright Brothers. Spacecraft Spacecraft are another part of aerospace engineering. There have been many space shuttles launched into orbit. Throughout time, rockets and space shuttles have evolved. Aerospace engineers have made rockets and shuttles much safer. Rockets and shuttles not only transport humans, but also cargo and rovers. Satellites The first satellite was developed by Russia and was named Sputnik1on October 4, 1957. Sputnik travelled at a speed of 18,000 miles per hour. It went around earth every 93 minutes.

The crew has substantially changed many of the exploration tools and procedures based on lessons learned from NEEMO 15, Squyres said, which will be tested on the upcoming mission. Also, they will work in tandem with one-person submarines that simulate small free-flying spacecraft at an asteroid -- one of the things NEEMO 15 didn't get to. They'll do the entire mission with a 50-second Steve Squyres, foreground, on a familiarization dive communication delay between Aquarius and the around the Aquarius habitat.

  • European Space Agency: Astronaut Recruitment Drive for Greater Diversity
    European Space Agency: Astronaut recruitment drive for greater diversity Jonathan Amos Science correspondent @BBCAmoson Twitter The European Space Agency says it wants to recruit someone with a disability as part of its call for new astronauts. Esa will be accepting applications in March to fill four-to-six vacancies in its astro corps but it wants this draft process to be as inclusive as possible. The search for a potential flier with additional functional needs will be run in parallel to the main call. The agency has asked the International Paralympic Committee to advise it on selection. "To be absolutely clear, we're not looking to hire a space tourist that happens also to have a disability," said Dr David Parker, the director of Esa's robotics and human spaceflight programme. "To be very explicit, this individual would do a meaningful space mission. So, they would need to do the science; they would need to participate in all the normal operations of the International Space Station (ISS). "This is not about tokenism," he told BBC News. "We have to be able to justify to all the people who fund us - which is everybody, including people who happen to be disabled - that what we're doing is somehow meaningful to everybody." Individuals with a lower limb deficiency or who have restricted growth - circumstances that have always been a bar in the past - are encouraged to apply. At this stage, the selected individual would be part of a feasibility project to understand the requirements, such as on safety and technical support. But the clear intention is to make "para- astronauts" a reality at some point in the future, even if this takes some time.

  • Bringing Space Textiles Down to Earth by Fi Forrest
    Feature Bringing Space Textiles Down to Earth By Fi Forrest DOI: 10.14504/ar.19.2.1 extiles are an essential part of the space industry. Every gram sent into orbit costs hundreds of thousands of dol- lars, so textiles must be lightweight as well as strong, and Tresistant to extremes of heat, cold, and ultraviolet radiation that they never have to experience down here on Earth. With the US National Aeronautics and Space Administration’s (NASA) recent announcement of a lunar spaceport—the Gate- way Project—and manned missions to Mars being proposed by Elon Musk, the next generation of space textiles are GO.1,2 In space you find textiles everywhere, from the straps that hold you in place during take-off to the parachute on your re-entry. Diapers are in your underwear, you might work in an inflat- able module on the International Space Station (ISS) and even that flag on the moon was specially designed in nylon. In space everything acts, and reacts, differently. Whether in low-gravity environments like the moon, or micro-gravity on the ISS, even the way moisture wicks away from the human body is different.
