News UAH space science faculty advances modelling of energetic neutral atoms to better understand solar flares and coronal mass ejections
“Solar flares and coronal mass ejections (CME) are two of the most energetic processes in the solar system, showering the Earth’s magnetic field with billions of tons of highly energetic plasma gas, potentially disrupting power grids, satellites and communications …
“A cutting-edge nuclear thermal propulsion (NTP) rocket engine using what’s called centrifugal liquid fuel bubble-through could one day be a ticket for NASA to go directly into deep space. Under an NTP research contract for the Space Nuclear Propulsion …
“Longer life and increased capacity for a new technology battery that could be the workhorse of a renewable energy grid are the goals of a study of the effect of charging cycles on the structure of anodes in sodium ion …
