Concepts for directly and deliberately manipulating Earth's climate system, collectively referred to as "geoengineering," have been proposed as contingency responses to global warming.
While robotic arm applications on Earth have existed for decades, it's only in the last few years that manipulation jobs have moved far outside the factory walls.
This talk will provide an introduction of fuel cells and regenerative fuel cell systems and highlight the features of this technology for enabling future NASA missions to the moon, near-Earth asteroids, and Mars.
This talk will present some of the highlights from the first year of NuSTAR observations and describe how they are changing our picture of the extreme universe.
Von Karman was the first director of JPL. This talk will tell the story of Von Karman’s life in aeronautics, engineering, and science, and particularly focus on his role in founding JPL.
