Dust Mitigation for the Lunar Surface
SBC: Adherent Technologies, Inc. Topic: X502The lunar surface is to a large extent covered with a dust layer several meters thick. Known as lunar regolith, it poses a hazard in the form of dust clouds being generated by all forms of gas expansions in the high vacuum environment of the lunar surface. This is especially pronounced during spacecraft operations. Instruments placed on the moon by the Apollo mission showed marked degradation d ...

Foam-in-Place Contaminant Containment System
SBC: Adherent Technologies, Inc. Topic: S502Over the next few decades, NASA plans to launch a number of planetary probes to and return the samples to Earth for detailed investigation. Due to the rapid expanse of space exploration, a need has been identified for the proper handling of extraterrestrial samples. Not only must the sample return system maintain the physical integrity of the sample in sometimes rigorous conditions (e.g., rover ...

Reconfigurable Robust Routing for Mobile Outreach Network
SBC: AMERICAN GNC CORPORATION Topic: O108The early lunar network communications involves the use of a variety of communication channels and networks such as IEEE 802.16, Ka-Band and S-Band satellite data-links. The sophisticated environment casts a major challenge to provide a reliable network communications supporting the performance of lunar missions. In addition, the delivery of a higher Quality of Service (QoS) is not only stifled by ...

Architectures/Algorithms/Tools for Ultra-Low Power, Compact EVA Digital Radio
SBC: UniRF Technologies, Inc. Topic: O104The EVA digital radio imposes tight constraints on power consumption, latency, throughput, form factor, reconfigurability, single event upset and fault tolerance, and security. This requires a complete rethink on the digital radio architecture. We propose such an architecture called CHANDRA that exploits a cycle-by-cycle reconfigurable FPGA that is based on state-of-the-art double-gate CMOS and n ...

Composite Matrix Systems for Cryogenic Applications
SBC: APPLIED POLERAMIC INCORPORATED Topic: X405As an alternative material to aluminum-lithium, cryotanks developed from fiber reinforced composites can offer significant weight savings in applications for fuel containment of liquid oxygen and hydrogen. For composite materials to be accepted and utilized in these structures, they must be resistant to microcracking. It is the objective of this work to develop a matrix system for aerospace comp ...

Multifunctional Composite Materials
SBC: APPLIED POLERAMIC INCORPORATED Topic: A201Polymeric composite materials that are currently utilized in aircraft structures are susceptible to significant damage from lightning strikes. Enhanced electrical and thermal conductivity in these polymeric composites could eliminate this damage. The addition of this multifunctional capability to composites will result in lower manufacturing costs and weight reductions in future aircraft since t ...

Laser Ablation- Optical Cavity Isotopic Spectrometer (LAOCIS)
SBC: APPLIED SPECTRA INC Topic: N/AThis proposal addresses NASA astrobiology objectives, particularly the need for a compact instrument capable of in situ isotopic measurements. We propose the detailed conceptual development of a device for analyzing key isotopic composition in surface materials without sample preparation. We will combine absorption spectroscopy with laser induced vaporization of solid samples for high-resolution i ...

A Liquid Hydrogen Cooler with a Cooling Capacity of 20 Watts
SBC: ATLAS SCIENTIFIC Topic: X701For the future spaceport and long-term storage of liquid hydrogen NASA requires cryocoolers that can provide cooling power in the range of 20 watts at 20 K. The closed-cycle cooling alternatives currently available for such applications are not well suited to the requirements. In many cases reliability is low and vibration high. In other cases coolers are too massive and inefficient. This propo ...
