Sampling, Mobility, and Anchoring in Small‐Body Sampling Robots: A Comprehensive Review
Small‐body sampling robots are exploration systems that perform contact, sampling, and stable operations on microgravity bodies such as asteroids and comets. The authors review representative robot architectures and key technologies, focusing on the mechanisms, evolution, and coupling of sampling, mobility, and anchoring.

Cruising Together: How the Europeans Tipped the Scales for the Ground‐Launched Cruise Missile
ABSTRACT In the 1970s, the United States adopted the ground‐launched cruise missile (GLCM) despite opposition from the military and the lack of an established military requirement. The case is, thus, at odds with common models of military innovation that rely on military utility and organizational interests for their explanatory power.

Investigation of Mechanical Properties of Wired Glass
ABSTRACT This study investigates the fracture strength, also known as the modulus of rupture (MOR), of wired glass using the four‐point bending test. The strength distribution was analyzed through a two‐parameter Weibull analysis, with the stress at failure determined using digital image correlation (DIC) coupled with finite element analysis (FEA). The

An Efficient Computation of Effective Ground Range Using an Oblate Earth Model
An effcient method is presented to calculate the ground range of a ballistic missile trajectory on a nonrotating Earth. The spherical Earth model does not provide good approximation of distance between two locations on the surface of Earth.

Target Guidance Method for Low-Orbit Satellite by Geosynchronous Orbit Satellite [PDF]
Geosynchronous orbit satellite is usually the first early warning equipment to catch ballistic missile launches in actual combat. However, the detection information it provides is lack of dimension, which makes the traditional target guidance method hard
