The crucial part is the quantum chip, which is a processor built from the superconducting materials aluminum and niobium, then chilled in a tank of liquid helium. It achieves supercomputing speeds because its basic data units—called qubits—can hold both the values 0 and 1 simultaneously, and instantly share those values among all the qubits.  2, record 1, English, - quantum%20computing%20chip

This was a fast-acting liquid poison injection system comprising a number of small tanks containing gadolinium nitrate solution which were connected to perforated Zircaloy in-core injection tubes. The top of each poison tank was connected to high pressure helium storage tanks via an array of valves which were opened on a trip signal, thereby pressurizing the poison solution and causing it to flow rapidly into the perforated in-core tubes and, hence, into the bulk moderator.  2, record 2, English, - poison%20tank

Many spacecraft use small rockets called thrusters to move around in space. Thrusters can change the speed and direction of a spacecraft. They allow a spacecraft to steer in space, to jump to a higher orbit, or to fall back to Earth.  4, record 5, English, - thruster

The propulsion subsystem featured sets of small thrusters and a main engine. The thrusters were used to perform Odyssey's attitude control and trajectory correction manoeuvres, while the main engine was used to place the spacecraft in orbit around Mars. The main engine, which used hydrazine propellant with nitrogen tetroxide as an oxidiser, produced a minimum thrust of 65. 3 kilograms of force. Each of the four thrusters used for attitude control produce a thrust of 0. 1 kilogram of force. Four 2. 3-kilogram-force thrusters were used for turning the spacecraft. In addition to miscellaneous tubing, pyro valves and filters, the propulsion subsystem also included a single gaseous helium tank used to pressurise the fuel and oxidiser tanks. The propulsion subsystem weighed 49. 7 kilograms.  4, record 5, English, - thruster

The payload module is essentially a large cryostat with a toroidal tank which contained at launch, over 2000 litres of super fluid helium.... Some of the infrared detectors are directly coupled to the helium tank and are at a temperature of around 2K.
