Jet Propulsion Laboratory spin test.jpg

Ranger block 3 spin test 8/11/1964 In August 1964, this test fixture was used by the Spacecraft Design Section at NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory in Pasadena, Calif., to study spin stabilization of spacecraft - in this case, Rangers 8 and 9 (part of the Ranger Block 3 design). Many spacecraft had used spin stability for attitude control during acceleration or thrust, and it was found that a slower spin provided better stability for the coasting phase. One method of decreasing the spin of a spacecraft, or de-spinning, was the deployment of yo-yo devices. Weights were attached to rigid or stretch cords, then released while the fixture was spinning. The cords would unwind, like the arms of a figure skater extending to slow a spin, and then the cords were released. In this photo, the cables and weights can be seen, attached to the outside of the white circle. The test fixture is surrounded by what appear to be bales of paper and trash to absorb the impact of the weights when they were released from the spinning test fixture.

National Physical Laboratory- Science and Technology in Wartime, Teddington, Middlesex, England, UK, 1944 A general view of the radiation section in the Light Division of the National Physical Laboratory in Teddington. In the foreground, a female scientist works at a piece of apparatus used to test the absorbing properties of materials regarding infra-red and ultra-violet. This is particular important with regard to the development of sunglasses and welding goggles, as the glass used in these items must be able to absorb infra-red and ultra-violet radiation in order to protect the eyes of the wearer.

MSL-Cruise Stage Test.jpg

Testing of the cruise stage for NASA's Mars Science Laboratory in August 2010 included a session in a facility that simulates the environment found in interplanetary space. In this Aug. 24, 2010, photograph, a spacecraft technician at NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory, Pasadena, Calif., prepares for a test in the space simulation chamber. Solar panels are visible on the upper surface of the cruise stage. The testing chamber, 25 feet in diameter and 76 feet high, can simulate the cold, vacuum environment of space. Its 37 xenon lamps, each with about 25,000 watts, mimic the spacecraft's exposure to intense light from the sun.

Solar System Song.webm

Hazel fell in love with astronomy and dedicated a song to it. Lyrics: First comes the sun that gives us light, Inside the core conditions are right To cause the proton-proton chain Where mass is lost and energy gained Now Mercury is rather small With craters covering it all, It had volcanoes long ago, But now activity is low Next Venus comes, about the size Of Earth, but this is just a guise, Its pressure and its atmosphere And temperature are cause to fear So Earth might be your better bet To live, for here our needs are met, We even have a decent moon That maybe we can live on soon Now Mars we know a lot about With rovers sent to check it out Spirit and Opportunity, More recently curiosity Past Mars the asteroids draw near Though really there's no need to fear, They're spaced so very far apart That hitting one would be quite an art Next Jupiter comes towering in, In size and mass it's sure to win, Its great red spot alone could fit Two earths or more inside of it Its moons are awesome, that's agreed, Io, Europa, Ganymede, Callisto, And could it be true That there's life on Europa too? We come to Saturn with its rings That really are quite breathtaking They've got some gaps in, mainly due To moons, you know there's quite a few There's Mimas and Enceladus, Pandora and Prometheus, The massive Titan dwarfs them all, Five thousand kilometres tall And now we come to Uranus, Who's got a really curious Rotation axis, not aligned With all the others, never mind! The last planet, but not the least, Compared to earth it's still a beast, It's Neptune, and its moon's quite neat, Its retrograde orbit's rather sweet Well now we come to poor pluto, The scientists have voted no, We had to draw the line somewhere, I'm sorry pluto, life's not fair But now you get to be the king Of the Plutinos under your wing And all the other KBOs, How many are there? No one knows But that's not all, much further out You'll see some comets strewn about, Sometimes the comets end up here Although the Oort cloud's far from near And that's the solar system's end From here you go alone my friend, The trip's a one-way trip you know, Send postcards home by radio

NASA Earth from Orbit 2012.webm

NASA's fleet of Earth-observing satellites constantly circle the globe, completing their orbits every 90 minutes. They give us invaluable information about everything from our weather and climate, to the way we use our land, to the air we breathe. This video highlights some of the newest satellites in the fleet, including the versatile Suomi National Polar-orbiting (NPP) satellite, a partnership between NASA and the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, and Aquarius, which measures sea surface salinity and is a joint project between NASA and the Space Agency of Argentina. While many of the images are "true color" or photorealistic in nature, this video also includes data visualizations, which help scientists see data in useful new ways, and computer models, which help us understand interconnected Earth systems and make projections into the future. Curious about what images we used in this video? A full list can be found at www.nasa.gov/topics/earth/earthmonth/earth-from-orbit-2012.html

A student looks at the Orion Nebula through an Apertura CarbonStar 8" Ritchey–Chrétien telescope, mounted on a Sky-Watcher Wave 150i strain wave mount and carbon fiber tripod with pier extension, set up at Library Mall at UW-Madison for sidewalk astronomy. Visible inside the telescope are the secondary mirror and vanes, as well as baffles that reduce the effect of glare from nearby stars. The student is shielding her eyes to avoid glare from nearby lights and the photographic flash.
