Space Research in the Era of the Space Station
Science, 1984With the continuing flights and increasing capabilities of the space shuttle, and with the design and development of a space station, there will be a significant increase in our space research capabilities during the 1990's. Ways in which the nation's space science program may evolve in response to these developments are described.

Abstract The concept of commercial activities in space existed long before the first artificial satellite was launched in 1957. Commercial communication satellite service began in 1965 and expanded rapidly, exceeding the most optimistic projections. Yet other commercial activities in space have failed to follow.

Space Research: At a Crossroads
Science, 1987The current state and future directions of the U.S. space-science program are assessed in the wake of the Challenger accident, the Gramm-Rudman-Hollings budget reduction act, and the report of the National Commission on Space. A renewed emphasis on moderate-scale, quick-response missions will be of special importance for scientific progress and will ...

The space age and the origin of space research
2001The exploration of space is one of the greatest achievements of the twentieth century. In the ideal photo album of this century one could hardly avoid including such pictures as our blue planet seen from space and the human footprint on the Moon’s surface; the close-up images of a comet’s nucleus and the rough landscape of Mars; the floating of ...

The successful launch in May 1967 of ARIEL 3, the first satellite to be designed and wholly constructed in the United Kingdom, was an outstanding event for this country's space science programme. Five experiments and their supporting facilities were carried aloft by a US SCOUT launch vehicle and inevitably the reputation of our aerospace and electronic

Industrial Lubrication and Tribology, 1982
THE Spacelab Scientific (CPSE) Airlock is equipped with an experiment table to transfer experiments from the Module into space environment. In the table drive system multi‐stranded steel cable is used, running over small‐diameter pulleys. For cleanliness requirements the original cable lubricant was replaced by a fluorinated fluid.
