Space Based Power stations The Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency (JAXA) recently announced its 25-year plan to build the world s first 1-gigawatt power plant in space.
Boeing is expanding rapidly. The aerospace giant now assembles 787 Dreamliners at a rate of three a month at a massive facility adjacent to the Charleston airport,

In the near term before colonists can construct greenhouses they will have to use artificial light from LEDS for example to power their plants'photosynthesis. NASA has conducted plant-growth research in microgravity aboard the International Space station (ISS) and in the Long Duration Exposure
Placing a laboratory near the International Space station (ISS) would be one logical way of doing this;

For this to become a viable possibility NASA engineers would have to solve some daunting technological materials-science and physics issues.
Unmanned spacecraft can carry experiments and float freely in Earth's orbit as the Long Duration Exposure Facility did.

At least NASA acknowledges that specific conditions have to take place like the angle for viewing the sun's position your altitude
Emergency access afterward would be significantly less hazardous than an EVA from a space shuttle or space station since gravity would be in effect so thermal and thin-atmosphere considerations would be the only things that would act as impediments.

It's the latest publication from James Hansen NASA's fiery climate change scientist who is retiring on Wednesday after 46 years with the space agency.
and its lead author Pushker A. Kharecha of the NASA Goddard Institute for Space Studies
With his departure from NASA the climate research community loses one of its most vocal members
The Ancient greeks dreamed up Daedalus who fashioned wings for his son (which unfortunately worked a little too well.
Traditional fixed-wing aircraft rely on a steady flow of air over the wings. The same is true of helicopters and rotors.
But as the wings of insects flap back and forth the air around them is constantly changing.
And the stubby wings of bees and other insects lift far more weight than can be explained using conventional steady-state aerodynamics principles.
In the 1970s Torkel Weis-Fogh a Danish zoologist at the University of Cambridge used high-speed photography to analyze the exact wing motions of hovering insects and compare them to the insects morphological features.
When insect wings clap together and then peel apart between the up and down strokes the motion flings air away
This vortex creates the force necessary to lift the insect between wing flaps. Similar vortices might be generated by the angle
and rotation of the wings Weis-Fogh posited providing additional lift. Two decades later computational techniques caught up with theory and scientists began to apply these principles to manmade systems.
Flies have really complex wing trajectories. There are a whole bunch of subtle things that happen Wood says.
By the time Wood graduated in 2004 and opened his own lab at Harvard university he had helped pioneer a way to use extremely energy-efficient exotic materials to replicate the motion of a fly s wing;
and watched as the wings of his tiny creation began to vibrate lifting the robot into the air for several seconds.
When wings flap at their most efficient frequency hich happens when air density wing speed and an organism s weight are balanced perfectly-hey create waves of vortices that merge and build.
The audible result is the hum of a hummingbird or buzz of a bee says Jayant Ratti Techject s president.
A flapping-wing drone utilizing resonance generates significant improvements in energy efficiency creating optimal lift with minimal effort.
By closely observing the positions of the flies body parts they could measure the exact flip and twist of wings and legs.
At that instant the wings froze. Every time the fly slammed into the window it reflexively surrendered to the crash momentum and fell.
Then its wings flapped again propelling the insect into a controlled hover. It can hit
and recover in two or three wing beats which is phenomenal Vaneck says. There is no manmade system that can do that.
and the wings needed to be controlled independently. So they designed a shell for a quadrotor that incorporated shock absorbers ubber dampers in between sections made from carbon fiber and plastic.
in order to mimic the alternating wing speed that provides four-winged insects with exceptional control. When the vehicle is blown out of position
Guiler and Vaneck aim to replace the propellers on their quadrotor with flapping wings. The Instanteye is far better at recovering from wind gusts
But what we discovered was flapping-wing birds and insects are suited perfectly for environments where you have dynamic obstructions he trees are moving the branches are moving.

#University students developing robotic gardening technologyfor more than a half-century NASA has made the stuff of science fiction into reality.
Researchers are continuing that tradition by designing robots to work in a deep-space habitat tending gardens and growing food for astronaut explorers.
As astronauts explore beyond Earth they will need to make their habitat as self-sustaining as possible.
and use it in future space missions said Tracy Gill NASA's technology strategy manager at the Kennedy space center in Florida.
The University of Colorado students demonstrated their X-Hab project at Kennedy's Space station Processing Facility on June 23 to a group of employees that included center director Bob Cabana.
It is a concept for producing edible plants during long-term missions to destinations such as Mars. Heather Hava who is working on a doctorate in aerospace engineering sciences explains that the goal is to have robots do much of the monotonous tasks saving time
for the astronauts. The'Plants Anywhere'approach is designed to help minimize astronaut workload said Hava whose degree will focus in bioastronautics.
This keeps them free to concentrate on more important tasks. A year ago the University of Colorado student team demonstrated a gardening system with plants robotically tended on a Lazy susan-like device.
If an astronaut requests tomatoes for a salad the system decides which specific plants have the ripest tomatoes
We also want the plants to be in the astronauts'environment so they can see them smell them
Hava noted that the team has benefited from support from former NASA astronaut Joe Tanner who now is a senior instructor of aerospace engineering sciences at the University of Colorado and Nikolaus Correll assistant professor of computer science at the university.
Gill says involving students in ongoing NASA projects is crucial for the future. This is an opportunity to prepare the next generation of engineers scientists
and explorers for our space program he said. They tell us how their design for the system keeps evolving.
Gill added that Gioia Massa Ph d. of the International Space station Ground Processing and Research Project Office Morgan Simpson of NASA Ground Processing Directorate and Ray Wheeler Ph d. of the Surface Systems office in NASA's Engineering and Technology Directorate also provided guidance
for the University of Colorado team. They all also helped advise the students as they developed their project
NASA and the National Space Grant Foundation selected seven projects from six universities for the 2013-2014 X-Hab Academic Innovation Challenge.
In doing so they worked in close cooperation with members of the NASA Advanced Exploration Systems (AES) Program's Deep-space Habitat Project team.
Participants are required to explore NASA's work on development of deep-space habitats and help the agency gather new ideas to complement its current research and development.
The University of Colorado Boulder also is among five universities selected by NASA for the 2015 X-Hab Academic Innovation Challenge.
