AttoSats: ChipSats, other Gram-Scale Spacecraft, and Beyond [PDF]
The miniaturization of electronic and mechanical components has allowed for an unprecedented downscaling of spacecraft size and mass. Today, spacecraft with a mass between 1 to 10 grams, AttoSats, have been developed and operated in space. Due to their small size, they introduce a new paradigm in spacecraft design, relying on agile development, rapid ...

Abstract Near‐earth orbits are becoming congested because of a rapid growth in the number of satellites and space debris, which presents a real threat to the sustainable use of space and the safety of the Earth. Despite space scientists and public policymakers having been actively seeking solutions for decades, solving the problem has been put off ...

Structure Modeling Activation Free Fourier Network for Spacecraft Image Denoising [PDF]
Spacecraft image denoising is a crucial fundamental technology closely related to aerospace research. However, the existing deep learning-based image denoising methods are primarily designed for natural image and fail to adequately consider the characteristics of spacecraft image(e.g.

Numerical Calculation of Gas–Liquid Two-Phase Flow in Tesla Valve
In this paper, the gas–liquid two-phase flow within a Tesla valve under zero-gravity conditions is numerically studied. Based on the VOF model and the inlet two-phase separation method, the forward and reverse flow patterns and pressure drop changes in a

Salient Region-Guided Spacecraft Image Arbitrary-Scale Super-Resolution Network [PDF]
Spacecraft image super-resolution seeks to enhance low-resolution spacecraft images into high-resolution ones. Although existing arbitrary-scale super-resolution methods perform well on general images, they tend to overlook the difference in features between the spacecraft core region and the large black space background, introducing irrelevant noise ...

Astronaut hazard during free-flight polar EVA [PDF]
Extravehicular Activity (EVA) during Shuttle flights planned for the late 1980's includes several factors which together may constitute an astronaut hazard. Free-flight EVA is planned whereas prior United States Earth orbit EVA has used umbilical tethers

Spacecraft and Instrumentation
The new scientific work in this thesis stems from data gathered and returned to Earth by the Cassini-Huygens spacecraft. Onboard the spacecraft is a suite of in situ instruments making field, particle and wave measurements for studying dust, plasma and magnetic fields around Saturn. There are also suites of optical remote sensing instruments (e.g.
