The Binary Colloidal Alloy Test-3 is an Exploration Systems’ transition flight experiment in the Human System Research and Technology area. BCAT-3 provides a unique opportunity to explore fundamental physics and simultaneously develop important future technology, including computers operating on light, complex biomolecular pharmaceuticals, clean sources of geothermal power, and novel rocket engines for interplanetary travel. These studies depend entirely on the microgravity environment provided by the International Space Station (ISS); in all other locations accessible to science, gravity dominates and precludes investigation of any other effects of interest. The experiment itself [consists of] photographing samples of colloidal particles with a digital camera onboard the ISS. Colloids are tiny nanoscale spheres of plexiglass a thousand times smaller than the width of a human hair (submicron radius) that are suspended in a fluid. They are ubiquitous (e.g., milk, smoke, and paint) and therefore interesting to study directly. Colloids are also small enough that they behave much like atoms and so can be used to model all sorts of phenomena because their size, shape, and interactions can be controlled. The 10 samples in BCAT-3 are made from the same ingredients, each a recipe with different proportions, and are grouped into three experiments: critical point, binary alloy, and surface crystallization.

BCAT-3 is comprised of three separate experiments, which are individually referred to as a binary alloy(BCAT-3-BA), surface crystallization(BCAT-3-SC) and critical point(BCAT-3-CP). The critical point investigation is continuing with additional samples on future ISS [International Space Station] expeditions and will be referred to as Binary Colloidal Alloy Test-4. BCAT-4 will consist of two sets of samples referred to as BCAT-3 and 4 : Critical Point(BCAT-3-4-CP) and BCAT-4 : Polydisperse(BCAT-4-Poly).... The Binary Colloidal Alloy Test-3(BCAT-3) hardware supported three investigations in which ISS crews photographed samples of colloidal particles(tiny nanoscale spheres suspended in liquid) to document liquid/gas phase changes, growth of binary crystals, and the formation of colloidal crystals confined to a surface. Colloids are small enough that in a microgravity environment without sedimentation and convection, they behave much as atoms and so can be used to model all sorts of phenomena because their size, shape, and interactions can be controlled. The BCAT-3 payload consists of ten small samples of colloid alloys in which the microscopic colloid particles are mixed together into a liquid. These ten samples are contained within a small case that is the size of a school textbook. At the start of an experiment run, all ten samples are shaken to completely remix the colloid samples, much in the same way that salad dressing must be shaken to remix oil and vinegar. After the samples are mixed, what remains is periodically photographed using a digital camera until the colloid and liquid components of those samples have separated or the polymers have formed crystals. The samples can be remixed to repeat the experiment. The ten samples in BCAT-3 were selected as part of three separate experiments examining different physical processes : critical point, binary alloys, and surface crystallization.  5, record 23, English, - binary%20alloy%20colloidal%20test

One consequence of cabin pressurization is that the pressure inside the airplane might be 70 kPa (10 psi), while the pressure outside is only 15 kPa (2 psi). An otherwise-harmless pinhole under these pressure differences will generate a high-pitched squeal as the air leaks out at supersonic speeds.

Cabin pressurization is the active pumping of air into an aircraft cabin to increase the air pressure within the cabin. It is required when an aircraft reaches high altitudes, because the natural atmospheric pressure is too low to allow people to absorb sufficient oxygen, leading to altitude sickness and ultimately hypoxia.  3, record 24, English, - depressurize

The Earth is surrounded by a blanket of air, which we call the atmosphere. It reaches over 560 kilometers(348 miles) from the surface of the Earth, so we are only able to see what occurs fairly close to the ground.... Life on Earth is supported by the atmosphere, solar energy, and our planet's magnetic fields. The atmosphere absorbs the energy from the Sun, recycles water and other chemicals, and works with the electrical and magnetic forces to provide a moderate climate. The atmosphere also protects us from high-energy radiation and the frigid vacuum of space. The envelope of gas surrounding the Earth changes from the ground up. Four distinct layers have been identified using thermal characteristics(temperature changes), chemical composition, movement, and density [:] the troposphere..., the stratosphere..., the mesophere..., the thermosphere. The exosphere starts at the top to the thermosphere and continues until it merges with interplanetary gases, or space.

The shoeboxsized spectrophotometer-called MAESTRO(Measurements of Aerosol Extinction in the Stratosphere and Troposphere Retrieved by Occultation)-is the most advanced in a long line of MSC instruments that have flown on balloons, high-altitude research aircraft and space shuttle missions over the past 10 years. MAESTRO and other spectrophotometers operate on the principle that different gases absorb different wavelengths of light, ranging from short, ultraviolet(UV) rays to long, near-infrared ones. Each gas, therefore, has its own "fingerprint" or distinct spectrum of absorption. This makes it possible to identify which gases are present from changes in the brightness of sunlight at different wavelengths between light coming directly from the Sun and light that has passed through the atmosphere on the way to the spectrophotometer. Ozone, for example, absorbs UV light and is, therefore, essential to preventing high levels of these rays from reaching the Earth's surface. As the Sun rises and sets, its rays slice through different layers of the atmosphere and out into space. MAESTRO will be equipped with more than 2000 separate detectors record the full spectrum of wavelengths emitted by direct sunlight and by sunlight travelling through these layers. These data will then be analyzed to provide precise measurements of gases and aerosol particles at different heights in the atmosphere. SCISAT-1 will orbit the Earth 15 times a day at a height of 650 kilometres, allowing MAESTRO to take measurements of 30 sunrises and sunsets every 24 hours.  3, record 34, English, - spectrophotometer%20MAESTRO

Le spectrophotomètre, qui est de la taille d'une boîte à chaussures, porte le nom de MAESTRO pour «Measurements of Aerosol Extinction in the Stratosphere and Troposphere Retrieved by Occultation» (Mesure de l'extinction des aérosols par occultation dans la stratosphère et dans la troposphère); il est le plus perfectionné d'une longue série d'instruments du SMC qui ont été embarqués à bord de ballons, d'avions de recherche en haute altitude et de navettes spatiales en mission au cours des dix dernières années. Le fonctionnement de MAESTRO, ainsi que d'autres spectrophotomètres, repose sur le principe que différents gaz absorbent différentes longueurs d'onde lumineuse, depuis les rayons ultraviolets (UV) à ondes courtes jusqu'aux rayons du proche-infrarouge à plus grande longueur d'onde. Chaque gaz, par conséquent, a sa propre «empreinte», c'est-à-dire son propre spectre d'absorption. Grâce à cela, il est possible de déterminer quels gaz sont présents à partir des changements dans l'intensité de la lumière du soleil à différentes longueurs d'onde entre la lumière qui provient directement du soleil et la lumière qui a traversé l'atmosphère avant de se rendre au spectrophotomètre. L'ozone, par exemple, absorbe la lumière UV et est, par conséquent, essentiel à la prévention d'un rayonnement ultraviolet intense sur la surface terrestre.  2, record 34, French, - spectrophotom%C3%A8tre%20MAESTRO

Bien que d'une conception similaire à celle de ses prédécesseurs, MAESTRO est le premier dispositif pourvu de deux spectrophotomètres distincts qui fonctionnent simultanément pour être en mesure d'enregistrer toutes les longueurs d'ondes du spectre. Les instruments utilisés antérieurement devaient être munis de filtres différents selon qu'ils mesuraient les rayons UV ou la lumière visible du spectre; c'était là un procédé qui réduisait le temps d'observation précieux dont on disposait. Pour obtenir un profil vertical complet de l'atmosphère au lever et au coucher du Soleil, MAESTRO recueillera des données sur toutes les longueurs d'onde du spectre correspondant à une hauteur donnée, ceci en seulement un tiers de seconde. Cela permettra aux scientifiques de détecter dans le profil vertical des gaz des détails d'une très grande précision, par exemple à un kilomètre d'altitude.  2, record 34, French, - spectrophotom%C3%A8tre%20MAESTRO

The Plasma Contactor Unit discharges accumulated electrons(using a hollow cathode assembly that is provided as furnished equipment) from the International Space Station structure reducing the potential difference between the Station structure and the surrounding charged plasma environment. This reduction in potential eliminates arcing, thus preserving the exterior material properties of the space station structure. The electron discharge emission is facilitated by converting Xenon Gas to Plasma using thermionic electron emission and expelling the Xenon Plasma from the ORU [Orbital Replaceable Unit]. Each PCU holds enough Xenon to operate for two years minimum. The PCU contains the PCU Electronics Unit and Gas Feed System as major subassemblies.  2, record 41, English, - plasma%20contactor%20unit

La Station jouit d'une protection supplémentaire grâce au «neutraliseur de plasma» qui joue le rôle de «prise de terre». En orbite, la station interagira régulièrement avec les plasmas spatiaux (particules chargées dans l'espace), ce qui pourrait entraîner la formation d'arcs électriques importants (décharges électriques significatives s'apparentant aux surtensions qui peuvent se produire dans nos maisons) entre sa surface et le milieu environnant. Ces arcs détruiraient les propriétés thermiques du revêtement extérieur de la structure, mettant ainsi en danger l'équipage et le matériel de la station. Comme son nom l'indique, le neutraliseur de plasmas neutralise les charges électriques en transformant une petite quantité de gaz en ions et en électrons, ce qui a pour effet de décharger sans danger dans l'espace les électrons excédentaires créés par la charge superficielle.  5, record 41, French, - neutraliseur%20de%20plasmas

The space between the panes of glass can be filled with gases that insulate better than air. Argon, sulfur hexafluoride, and krypton are among the gases that have been used for this purpose. Gas fills add little to the cost of most windows, and have proven most effective when used in conjunction with low-E coatings. For these reasons, some manufacturers have made gas fills standard in their low-E windows. Table 1 provides R-values for some low-E and gas-filled window configurations.  1, record 42, English, - gas%2Dfilled%20window

The accumulator is intended for heating fuel components in the rocket and space engines and can be used in space engineering, aircraft and other branches of industry. The task of increasing gas heating efficiency, reducing mass of the construction, diminution of dimensions and lowering thermal and hydraulic losses of heated gas is solved by making a heat accumulating element as a mono-unit in the form of cylinder. The covers with branch pipes are recessed in the ends of the mono-unit. The covers are butt joined to mono-unit on conical surfaces through pressurizing end seals at forming the collectors for gas feed and discharge. Plate electric heater and channels or annular slot for flowing gas are located along the longitudinal axis. The axis of channels or annular slot location divides the mass of heat accumulating element into two equal parts. In so doing, porous insert or a set of badly stream-lined bodies is in the channels or annular slot. All units of heat accumulator are coated with gas-dense material.  2, record 44, English, - annular%20slot

The Sun emits a steady flow of electrically-charged particles called the solar wind. As the solar wind expands supersonically into space, it creates a magnetized bubble around the Sun--the heliosphere. Eventually, the solar wind runs into the electrically-charged particles and magnetic field in the interstellar gas. The solar wind abruptly slows down from supersonic to subsonic speed, creating a termination shock. Before both spacecraft travel beyond the heliopause into interstellar space, they must pass through that shockwave.  2, record 46, English, - termination%20shock

Kibo's Debris Shield. The International Space Station(ISS) wall is designed to protect the ISS and its crew from space debris. A debris shield is adopted for this particular purpose. A famous astronomer, Fred Whipple, devised this shield, so it is called a Whipple Shield. The idea is to attach a layer of thin aluminum plate outside the wall. When a space debris impacts this outer plate, the kinetic energy of the space debris is converted to heat. This heat creates a hole in the outer plate. However, the debris will evaporate or disintegrate to small particles consisting of gas, liquid and solids and will no longer be able to significantly damage the wall.... a stuffed-shield is adopted on the wall of the front side of Kibo, covering an area of 150 degrees. A stuffed shield binds several kinds of textile layers similar to a bulletproof vest between itself and the wall. This is a reinforced Whipple shield.  2, record 47, English, - debris%20shield

Orbiting Astronomical Observatory(OAO), series of four orbiting observatories launched between 1966 and 1972 by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration(NASA) to provide astronomical data in the ultraviolet and X-ray wavelengths filtered out by the earth's atmosphere. Only two of the four launches were successful, however. OAO-2, launched in 1978, which carried two large telescopes in addition to a cluster of four ultraviolet telescopes, four photoelectric telescopes, and a number of spectrometers and other devices, weighed 4, 200 lb(1, 900 kg) and was the heaviest satellite orbited to that time. Working primarily with ultraviolet radiation, it was able to photograph very young stars. OAO-3, which was also called Copernicus, was launched in 1972. Carrying what was at that time the largest telescope ever orbited and three smaller X-ray telescopes, OAO-3 was primarily used in the study of ultraviolet radiation from interstellar gas and dust and from stars near the edges of the Milky Way.  2, record 51, English, - Orbiting%20Astronomical%20Observatory
