Rocketry Basics
This document provides a basic introduction to rocketry. It explains that rockets work by ejecting pressurized gas through a nozzle, similar to how balloons work when the air inside is released. Rockets use solid or liquid propellants that are burned to produce the pressurized gases, unlike balloons which use compressed air. The document also outlines the main types of rockets and stages of rocket flight, and explains how rockets are able to move according to Newton's third law of motion.

The Imminent Revolution in Spaceflight
The Imminent Revolution in Spaceflight UK Students for the Exploration and Development of Space (UKSEDS)
The document discusses the potential for spaceplanes to revolutionize spaceflight by providing lower-cost access to space. It proposes a development strategy starting with a suborbital prototype based on 1950s rocket fighter technology, followed by an orbital spaceplane called Spacecab. Market analysis suggests there could be huge demand for space tourism, with a potential market of $1 trillion to send 50 million tourists to space hotels over 10 years. The presentation argues that privately-developed spaceplanes like SpaceShipOne show the technology is viable and could have been achieved 60 years ago if not for entrenched mindsets favoring expendable rockets.Make a Dent in the Universe
The document presents various visions and ideas for the future including multi-planetary civilization through space exploration, asteroid mining, bioprinting meat, and planetary defense. It emphasizes developing a cosmic perspective through science fiction and having nerves of steel to work towards ambitious goals that can make a dent in the universe over the next 5 or more years through advancing technology and human achievement in space and beyond Earth.

Black hole
This document discusses black holes, including their introduction, historical background, parts, types, formation, detection, and the first picture of the M87 black hole. A black hole is a region of space with such strong gravity that nothing, not even light, can escape. They are detected through their effects on nearby matter like emitting x-rays and distorting spacetime to act as a gravitational lens.
Salyut 1
Salyut 1 was the first space station launched by the Soviet Union on April 19, 1971. It completed 362 orbits before reentering the atmosphere and breaking up. Salyut 1 helped test elements of space station systems and study the effects of long-duration spaceflight. It was 20 meters long and had a maximum diameter of 4 meters, with an interior space mass of 18,425 kilograms. Salyut 1 provided valuable data as the first long-duration orbital station.

Comets - history and exploration
This document summarizes the history of comet exploration. It describes how comets were initially seen as omens of disaster by ancient cultures but were later determined to follow predictable orbits by Halley. The 20th century saw significant advances in comet observation including spacecraft missions like Giotto, Stardust, Deep Impact and Rosetta that provided insights into comet composition and origins. Current theories suggest comets may have delivered water and organic molecules to early Earth. The most observed comet ever was ISON, intensely studied by spacecraft and ground telescopes in 2013 before disintegrating near the Sun.
Comet
The document discusses asteroids, comets, and meteorites. It states that asteroids and comets contain clues about the early solar system as they have changed little since formation 4.6 billion years ago. Asteroids are likely the fragmented remains of planetesimals that failed to form a planet due to Jupiter's gravity. Meteorites also likely formed from planetesimals and contain materials that predate the solar system. The document examines the different types of meteorites and asteroids based on their compositions.
comets
Comets are icy counterparts to asteroids that formed beyond the frost line in the early solar system. They have a frozen nucleus and can grow comas and tails as they enter the inner solar system and warm. Comet showers occur when Earth crosses a comet's orbit and encounters dust ejected along its path. The Kuiper belt contains orderly comet orbits beyond Neptune, while the distant Oort cloud has randomly distributed comet orbits initially placed there by interactions with giant planets. Spacecraft images have revealed diverse geology on comet nuclei including cliffs, mesas, and circular depressions.
Comets and asteroids
This document provides information about comets and asteroids. It defines a comet as a small solar system body that displays a coma and sometimes tail when close to the sun due to solar radiation. Comet nuclei range from hundreds of meters to tens of kilometers and are made of ice, dust, and small rocks. The document discusses how Edmond Halley correctly hypothesized that the comets of 1456, 1532, 1607 and 1682 were the same object, now known as Halley's Comet, and how it returns every 75-76 years. It also mentions that the impact of a 10km asteroid may have caused the extinction of dinosaurs 65 million years ago based on geological evidence.
Spacecraft bryce
The document is a poem and informational text about spacecraft written by Bryce. It discusses the history of rocketry from Robert Goddard's first rocket in 1926 to early NASA and Russian spacecraft. It also covers how spacecraft launch using rockets for lift-off but land using parachutes, and that rockets are needed to launch satellites into orbit as single engines are not powerful enough. The text also compares the speed of rockets to jets and mentions SpaceX deliveries to the International Space Station.
Space travel
The document discusses various new space companies and concepts in commercial spaceflight. It describes NewSpace as a term for new space companies that take different approaches to space development than traditional aerospace companies, focusing on private funding, low-cost approaches, and innovation. It then profiles over 15 NewSpace companies, describing their goals and projects, which include suborbital tourism ventures, rocket development programs, and work on reusable launch vehicles and spacecraft. It also discusses several space competitions and organizations working in this emerging commercial space industry.

Statically Balanced Tensegrity Mechanisms By Schenk
The document summarizes a graduation colloquium on the theory and design of statically balanced tensegrity mechanisms. The objectives of the graduation project were to develop a fundamental understanding of zero stiffness tensegrity structures and generate design guidelines through theoretical research and building a demonstration model. Key findings included that zero stiffness requires the directions of conventional members to lie on a conic, and the number of zero stiffness modes is equal to 6 minus the number of unique bar directions on the conic. A prototype tensegrity structure was designed and built to demonstrate the properties of a statically balanced mechanism.
Deployable Tensegrity Robots Tel Aviv
The document discusses deployable tensegrity robots based on tensegrity structures and Assur graphs. Tensegrity structures consist of cables that sustain tension and struts that sustain compression. Assur graphs are tensegrity frameworks that maintain self-stress in all elements without failing joints or singular positions from moving individual elements. The robots employ these properties by using cables, actuators, and control of cable lengths to change shapes while maintaining rigidity. Controlling a single cable brings the system to a singular position validated by the properties of Assur structures.
Building tensegritymodels mak_ev6
This document provides instructions for building a tensegrity tower sculpture out of wooden dowels and elastic cord. Tensegrity structures get their strength from a balance of tension and compression, with compression members (dowels) floating in midair, held in place only by tension members (elastic cord) that are not anchored to the ground. The instructions explain how to fabricate the compression members from dowels and eye screws, make loops of elastic cord for the tension members, construct preliminary triangular frames called "tendules" from the dowels, and attach the elastic cord loops to form triangular tension structures. Following these steps allows the reader to construct a multi-tiered tower sculpture that seems to defy gravity through the principles
Symmetric Prismatic Tensegrity Structures By Zhang, Guest, Ohsaki
This document summarizes research on symmetric prismatic tensegrity structures. It examines their objective, configuration, dihedral symmetry, connectivity through horizontal and vertical cables, self-equilibrium, stability criteria, conditions for stability, divisible structures, and numerical investigations into height and radius variations. Examples of different prismatic tensegrity structures are provided to catalog possible configurations.
Tensegrities In Hyperbolic Space
The document discusses the Kneser-Poulsen conjecture regarding how the area of the union and intersection of discs changes when the distances between disc centers increases. It provides background on results proving the conjecture holds in certain spaces, including Euclidean space in 2D if there is continuous expansion. The challenges in extending these proofs to higher dimensions are discussed, as are analogous questions regarding spherical and hyperbolic spaces.
Complex Adaptive System Architecture By Marcela Oliva B
The document proposes a framework called Complex Adaptive System Architecture (CASA) that uses spatial knowledge and principles from nature and the universe to organize information and enhance cognition. CASA would use tensegrity structures and the transformation of space/form to create order, model relationships, and facilitate knowledge transfer, in a way that is adaptive to internal and external forces. The goal is to develop spatial information systems and knowledge environments that are more in line with natural systems and human cognition.

The document summarizes a study that experimentally tested the tensegrity model of cell mechanics. The study used oscillatory magnetic twisting cytometry and traction force microscopy to measure cell stiffness and internal stresses. It found that microtubules bear compression within cells and that intracellular prestress is a major determinant of cell deformability, consistent with the predictions of the tensegrity model. The study provided support for the tensegrity model as a reasonable mechanical description of cells.
Rigidity And Tensegrity By Connelly
The document discusses the concepts of rigidity and tensegrity structures. It defines rigidity as being determined by the materials, external forces, topology, and geometry of a structure. Tensegrity structures use a combination of tension and compression elements to achieve rigidity. The document outlines methods for analyzing rigidity, including using equilibrium stresses, stress matrices, and Henneberg transformations to build globally rigid structures.
