Space projects on Indo-US priority list Our Bureau Bangalore , June 22 INDIA and the US have put high-technology commerce, including for civil space programme, on their priority list for co-operation and are taking steps to create the necessary environment to enhance it based on mutual trust. This was the conveyed by the US Ambassador, Dr David C. Mulford, and also in the Prime Minister's message read out at the inaugural session of the Indo-US space summit here. In what he termed "giving each other space", Dr Mulford said: "Now we are actively seeking to re-energise our co-operation (in space). This will require sustained leadership on both sides, as well as the support of our private sectors and our scientific communities. We all want to increase high-tech co-operation and commerce between the US and India."

    The US Air Force Airborne Laser, (ABL), designated YAL-1A, is a high energy laser weapon system for the destruction of tactical theatre ballistic missiles, which is carried on a modified Boeing 747-400F freighter aircraft. The ABL is being developed by the Air Force Research Laboratory and Team ABL, comprising Boeing, TRW (now Northrop Grumman Space Technologies) and Lockheed Martin. Boeing is responsible for program management, systems integration, battle management system and modification of the 747-400F aircraft. TRW Inc is building the laser systems. Lockheed Martin Space Systems is responsible for the target acquisition and beam control systems. The US Missile Defense Agency (previously called the Ballistic Missile Defense Organization) is responsible for the management of the program and it is executed by the USAF from Kirtland AFB in Albuquerque, New Mexico. In 1996, the Department of Defense awarded Team ABL a $1.1 billion Program Definition and Risk Reduction (PDRR) contract for the development and test of an Airborne Laser weapon system. During tests at TRW's Capistrano Test Site in 1998, the laser demonstration module achieved a power level 10% higher than the requirement. In April 2000 the ABL final critical design review was completed. Modification of the aircraft, involving installation of the turret in the aircraft's nose and modifications to accept the laser, optics and computer hardware, was completed in May 2002. In July 2002, the modified aircraft took the first of a series of test flights. After receiving airworthiness certification, the aircraft was flown to Edwards Air Force Base, California, in December 2002, for the installation of systems. The aircraft returned to airworthiness flight testing in December 2004 following installation of the beam control / fire control system. In May 2005 the aircraft will be fitted with the two illuminator lasers. In November 2004 all six modules of the COIL laser were successfully fired for the first time. The COIL laser is to be installed in late 2005. The first prototype is scheduled for completion in 2006. A second system is being considered for 2008.

    The international symposium will focus on new phenomenon of Mixed Reality the environment generated by new technologies that contain significant interaction possibilities in both virtual and physical spaces. Throughout the existence of the humankind the understanding of space, its frontiers and dimensions has changed a number of times. During the last century the newest scientific theories and the researches in the structures of micro (atom and quantum) and macro (the universe) seek to expand the boundaries of the visible space. As the result of the development of information and communication technologies the new frontier-free space is opened up the virtual space of the electronic media. At the beginning of the 21st century, when mobile media and wireless networks come into dominance - after surfing in the virtual world the navigation in physical space acquired importance. However nowadays in present reality we unavoidably interfere with pervasive media, daily dividing the attention between the events in virtual (media) and physical (real) space. The merger of the digital and physical space alters not only our perception of space but also the sense of the reality.

    Physical Home of the Technology Sandbox - 4328A Math Sciences
    The Technology Sandbox enables:
    • Cross Department/Discipline technology evaluation and investigation Point of focus for vendor interactions with the campus Mechanism for disseminating results of evaluations and best practices
    These key goals of the technology sandbox are not necessarily space dependent. But having physical space attached to the sandbox, is critical to the core concept of enhancing the technology dialog on campus. As joint projects are identified, at some point locating the hardware for these projects becomes an issue. Physical space is required to house equipment and to provide a working environment where campus technologists can have direct access to the equipment. Physical space encourages the technology dialog between groups by providing a common area to meet, brainstorm, interact, work on problems together. It also gives vendors visibility and a broader relationship with the UCLA community. The sandbox will occupy approx. 1300 square feet on the fourth floor of the Math Sciences building ( see the detailed directions ). It is directly adjacent to the existing machine room space (approx. 7000 square feet, shared with AIS). Larger systems being tested in the sandbox may require the enhanced environmental capabilities of the machine room. These systems can be located there, with easy access from the sandbox.

    Abstract
    Reading the popular science literature reveals that remarkably few space development enthusiasts have given the political economy of their very large space projects serious thought. Instead, they have chosen to describe the exciting science and engineering possibilities while promising the moon and stars to those who would dare to exploit them. Performing this public relations role is certainly crucial if any very large space project is ever to be realized. Both elite and mass public opinion will be to be inspired if the kind of resources necessary for development are to be mobilized. But something much more fundamental is missing. What needs explaining are the rational motivations for investors to risk their capital in opening a very distant, completely uninhabited frontier that is subject to extreme environmental conditions. Why should investors risk the enormous sums necessary to realize these dreams? Unfortunately, space development enthusiasts typically respond to this question, not by answering it directly, but by itemizing the likely economic benefits derived from space

    SPACE PROJECTS Given Liquidmetal alloy's extraordinary performance characteristics, NASA and Liquidmetal Technologies have been working together on numerous shuttle missions for NASA scientists to study its technology in space first hand. It has already been aboard four space shuttle missions, with scientists testing effects on the alloy in micro-gravity conditions. Because of its extraordinary performance characteristics, Liquidmetal alloy is also being considered for several upcoming aerospace applications.
    NASA's Genesis spacecraft, the first mission to collect and return solar wind samples with Liquidmetal alloy based solar wind collector tiles had an unexpected harsh re-entry to earth this past fall. The parachute system failed to deploy when Genesis returned to Earth September 8, 2004. The MIB, analyzing the Genesis capsule at a facility near Denver, said the likely cause was a design error that involves the orientation of gravity-switch devices.
    Meanwhile, scientists unpacking samples at NASA’s Johnson Space Center (JSC), Houston, curation facility remain upbeat in their assessment of the prospects for obtaining useful science from the recovered samples.

    The Submillimetron Project: Orbital Telescope Platform Proposed For SETI, Asteroid Watch Duties
    By Leonard David

    Senior Space Writer posted: 07:00 am ET 08 May 2002 ET The International Space Station may be port of call for a free-flying telescope capable of not only probing the depths of the Universe, but also listening for the chatter of other civilizations and spotting Earth-threatening asteroids. The Submillimetron Project is underway by a team of researchers from Sweden, Finland and Russia. This new telescope would be home-based at the Russian segment of the International Space Station (ISS). When periodically docked to the orbiting outpost, this astronomical tool can be serviced by a crew and then dispatched to continue its research work. Designed to operate at super-cold temperatures, the telescope permits astronomical peeks at the Cosmos in unprecedented wavelengths. The primary goal is to conduct a submillimeter wave, full sky survey.
