You could have seen it in a Crookes radiometer. One of the NIAC awards of 2023 was granted to a team that hopes to use this effect to develop a propulsion system. This can allow flying in altitudes nothing else can fly and possibly even explore other worlds. * Your browser does not support the audio tag. pauseplay Share Download Subscribe 00:00:00 / 00:30:26 skip-backward 1.0x skip-forward Share Page Copy Embed Code Copy Subscribe & Share RSS Feed Download (42.4 MB) Link with Timestamp April 5th, 2023 How complex must a telescope be to use the solar gravitational lens?

They are authors of a Lattice Confinement Fusion Reactor that got a NIAC award this year. A reactor like this could help us melt through the ice on Europa and Enceladus and have other interesting applications in space missions. * Your browser does not support the audio tag. pauseplay Share Download Subscribe 00:00:00 / 00:38:33 skip-backward 1.0x skip-forward Share Page Copy Embed Code Copy Subscribe & Share RSS Feed Download (53.5 MB) Link with Timestamp March 28th, 2023 Why don't we send microscopes on space probes to search for life?

But it's still a mystery, whether there are planets in the Alpha Centauri binary system, which is just next door to us. My guest today, Professor Peter Tuthill, is the Mission Leader for the TOLIMAN Telescope mission, which is designed to find those answers. * Your browser does not support the audio tag. pauseplay Share Download Subscribe 00:00:00 / 00:18:13 skip-backward 1.0x skip-forward Share Page Copy Embed Code Copy Subscribe & Share RSS Feed Download (25.4 MB) Link with Timestamp March 24th, 2023 iSpace reaches the Moon.

And to observe them from space, we need a truly huge telescope. Mary Knapp and her team proposed a project that can allow us to build such a telescope and they just recently got a NIAC grant for it. * Your browser does not support the audio tag. pauseplay Share Download Subscribe 00:00:00 / 00:39:01 skip-backward 1.0x skip-forward Share Page Copy Embed Code Copy Subscribe & Share RSS Feed Download (54.8 MB) Link with Timestamp March 22nd, 2023 Scientists came up with a method to produce concrete on the Moon and Mars using potato starch.
