Box 299, 2200 AG Noordwijk ZH, The Netherlands; [email protected] (M.T.); [email protected] (M.D.) * Correspondence: [email protected] Received: 10 May 2017; Accepted: 18 June 2017; Published: 23 June 2017 Abstract: The Fluorescence Explorer (FLEX) mission has been selected as ESA’s 8th Earth Explorer mission. The primary objectives of the mission are to provide global estimates of vegetation fluorescence, actual photosynthetic activity, and vegetation stress. FLEX will fly in tandem formation with Sentinel-3 providing ancillary data for atmospheric characterization and correction, vegetation related spectral indices, and land surface temperature. The purpose of this manuscript is to present its scientific payload, FLORIS, which is a push-broom hyperspectral imager, flying on a medium size platform. FLORIS will measure the vegetation fluorescence in the spectral range between 500 nm and 780 nm at medium spatial resolution (300 m) and over a swath of 150 km. It accommodates an imaging spectrometer with a very high spectral resolution (0.3 nm), to measure the fluorescence spectrum within two oxygen absorption bands (O2A and O2B), and a second spectrometer with lower spectral resolution to derive additional atmospheric and vegetation parameters.

  • Design of a Lunar Rover Utilizing Hydrogen-Oxygen Fuel Cell Technologies
    Design of a Lunar Rover Utilizing Hydrogen-Oxygen Fuel Cell Technologies A Thesis Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Science for Aeronautical and Astronautical Engineering in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Michael Phillip Snyder Graduate Program in Aeronautical and Astronautical Engineering The Ohio State University 2011 Master's Examination Committee: Dr. Meyer J. Benzakein, Advisor Dr. Gerald M. Gregorek Copyright by Michael Phillip Snyder 2011 Abstract Future exploration of the solar system will depend on new designs and technologies that are efficient and versatile. Roving systems have explored the Moon and Mars but current means of supplying power are fragile and inefficient, or are considered hazardous to launch. NASA’s Glenn Research Center developed criteria necessary for the design of a robotic lunar rover with an extended exploration time. In order to satisfy these requirements a versatile rover equipped with a hydrogen-oxygen fuel cell with a 1 kilowatt nominal power output was designed to operate in the lunar environment for longer than 5 years continuously. Scaled testing of the rover was performed to predict the performance of the lunar rover. Testing was performed at the Ohio State University’s Aeronautical and Astronautical Research Laboratory in order to determined drawbar pull and sinkage of the rover. Regolith mitigation strategies were investigated in order to prolong the life of the rover by limiting and eliminating contamination caused by the lunar dust. ii Dedicated to To Diane, Walter, Andrea and everyone else who has helped me along to reach the starting point of my journey.
