Peter Smith of the University of Arizona, Tucson, is the team leader for Phoenix. Once landed, the probe would be able to make a very accurate analysis of what promises to be some of Mars’ more habitable terrain... In addition to Smith's stereo imaging camera and robotic arm [, ] the Phoenix lander includes an instrument suite designed to completely characterize the accessible ice, soil, rock, and local atmosphere using state-of-the-art methods. Included within the instrument payload are microscopic imaging systems capable of examining materials at scales down to 10 nanometers(i. e., 1000 times less than the width of a human hair), while others will investigate whether organic molecules are contained in ice or soil samples.... Also onboard is a thermal and evolved gas analyzer(TEGA)... 1, record 4, English, - Phoenix

Les conditions qui règnent sur Terre ont une incidence limitative sur la taille et la qualité de plusieurs cristaux de protéines que l'on y fait croître. Cependant, grâce aux conditions de microgravité de l'espace, on estime pouvoir faire croître des cristaux plus gros et mieux structurés. L'installation perfectionnée de cristallisation de protéines est la première à combiner trois méthodes distinctes pour réaliser la cristallisation. D'abord, la diffusion liquide-liquide où, une fois que Columbia sera en orbite, on laisse diffuser lentement l'une dans l'autre une solution protéinique et une solution saline initialement séparées par une barrière tampon. Ensuite, la dialyse qui consiste en la séparation d'une solution de protéines et une solution saline au moyen d'une membrane. Enfin, la diffusion de vapeur suivant laquelle des cristaux se forment à l'intérieur d'une gouttelette de solution protéinique tandis que le solvant contenu dans la gouttelette se diffuse dans un réservoir. 3, record 9, French, - enceinte%20perfectionn%C3%A9e%20de%20cristallisation%20des%20prot%C3%A9ines

The performance of large, ground-based optical telescopes is limited by the quality of the image that can be delivered to the final detector(or camera). The telescope and its protective dome create atmospheric variations due to thermal mismatch with the local environment. This "dome seeing" effect reduces performance because it results in a blurring of the incoming image. This effect can be minimized by allowing bulk airflow across the mirror, but this comes at the price of wind buffeting of the structure, which also reduces performance. 2, record 12, English, - dome%20seeing%20effect

Remote heat sensing techniques evolved from space technology developments related to weather satellites can be used to detect comparative heat energy losses from roofs, walls, windows, and so on. A method called thermography is defined as the conversion of a temperature pattern detected on a surface by contrast into an image called a thermogram... Thermovision is defined as the technique of utilizing the infrared radiation from a surface which varies with the surface temperatures, to produce a thermal picture or thermogram. A camera can scan the area in question and focus the radiation on a sensitive detector which in turn converts it to an electronic signal. 2, record 14, English, - thermovision
