NASA Needs $3 Billion More a Year, Panel Tells Obama
"Sept. 8 (Bloomberg) -- NASA needs an extra $3 billion a year to send astronauts back to the moon or to deep-space flybys of Mars or asteroids and avoid an “unsustainable trajectory” of setting goals without adequate funding, a panel told President Barack Obama.
The panel is led by Norman Augustine, former chief executive of aerospace contractor Lockheed Martin Corp.
The next-generation Ares I rocket and Orion space capsule likely won’t be ready to fly astronauts and cargo to the ISS until at least 2017, two years beyond the current schedule, according to the panel, whose members include former astronaut Sally Ride. "

Looks Like ATK Is Getting Nervous
"Last week, senior executives from NASA's contractors -- including ATK; The Boeing Co.; Pratt Whitney; and Lockheed Martin Corp -- held a teleconference to map out a strategy to press for more money to keep Ares and its Orion capsule alive Tuesday, a senior executive for ATK, which is building the solid-rocket first stage of the Ares I and would have much to lose if the rocket was supplanted by commercial lifters, took issue with that recommendation.
http://www.nasawatch.com/archives/2009/09/looks_like_atk.html
The test of the five-segment solid rocket motor--Ares Development Motor-1-–was scrubbed today 20 seconds before firing due to a failure of the auxiliary power unit.
The next test opportunity is under evaluation.
Ares I First Stage Motor Test Today
The full-scale, full duration test is set for 3 p.m. EDT today and will provide valuable thrust, roll-control, acoustics and vibration data as engineers continue to design Ares I.
The five-segment solid rocket motor is capable of producing 22 million horsepower, equivalent to the energy produced by 25,882 race cars. Data will be collected during the test from 650 sensors to evaluate the motor's performance.

Preflight Interview: Nicole Stott
"Less than a month after you arrive at the station, the station’s expecting to receive a brand new cargo vehicle, the H-II Transfer Vehicle. Talk about this first of its kind Japanese spacecraft and what it’s going to add to the space station.
Well, it’s the H-II Transfer Vehicle―we call it the HTV, of course, ’cause we need an acronym for everything―and it’s a Japanese-built, unmanned cargo vehicle, and like the Progress, the Russian Progress, and the European ATV [Automated Transfer Vehicle], it will be another means for us to get cargo to the space station, and also for us to get rid of trash from the space station when those vehicles leave. This is pretty exciting for me ’cause it’s different to those vehicles in that it’s going to require us to actually go out there with the big robotic arm and grab it once it’s flying alongside station; we’ll have some pretty significant robotic tasks involved with that, so…
In comparison to those other two, is it bigger, smaller in terms of the amount of cargo it can deliver?
It’s on par with the size of the European ATV, but the difference in it is that both the Russian Progress and the European ATV automatically fly to the station and then automatically dock with the station, so they join up and mate to the station on their own; there are backups in case something goes wrong there, that we could manually control it. But the HTV is kind of cool because it comes up, gets to about ten meters from the space station, and then the two vehicles, the space station and the HTV, are kind of flying along together,"

Preflight Interview: Nicole Stott
"Less than a month after you arrive at the station, the station’s expecting to receive a brand new cargo vehicle, the H-II Transfer Vehicle. Talk about this first of its kind Japanese spacecraft and what it’s going to add to the space station.
Well, it’s the H-II Transfer Vehicle―we call it the HTV, of course, ’cause we need an acronym for everything―and it’s a Japanese-built, unmanned cargo vehicle, and like the Progress, the Russian Progress, and the European ATV [Automated Transfer Vehicle], it will be another means for us to get cargo to the space station, and also for us to get rid of trash from the space station when those vehicles leave. This is pretty exciting for me ’cause it’s different to those vehicles in that it’s going to require us to actually go out there with the big robotic arm and grab it once it’s flying alongside station; we’ll have some pretty significant robotic tasks involved with that, so…
In comparison to those other two, is it bigger, smaller in terms of the amount of cargo it can deliver?
It’s on par with the size of the European ATV, but the difference in it is that both the Russian Progress and the European ATV automatically fly to the station and then automatically dock with the station, so they join up and mate to the station on their own; there are backups in case something goes wrong there, that we could manually control it. But the HTV is kind of cool because it comes up, gets to about ten meters from the space station, and then the two vehicles, the space station and the HTV, are kind of flying along together,"

The static firing of the five-segment solid motor, designated development motor -1, is scheduled for 1 p.m. MDT on Thursday, Sept. 10, at the ATK test facility in Promontory, Utah.
The first firing attempt on Aug. 27 was scrubbed because of an anomaly with the ground test controller. "

Ares I First Stage Motor Test Aborted
The test of the five-segment solid rocket motor--Ares Development Motor-1-–was scrubbed today 20 seconds before firing due to a failure of the auxiliary power unit.
The next test opportunity is under evaluation.

Preflight Interview: Nicole Stott
"Less than a month after you arrive at the station, the station’s expecting to receive a brand new cargo vehicle, the H-II Transfer Vehicle. Talk about this first of its kind Japanese spacecraft and what it’s going to add to the space station.
Well, it’s the H-II Transfer Vehicle―we call it the HTV, of course, ’cause we need an acronym for everything―and it’s a Japanese-built, unmanned cargo vehicle, and like the Progress, the Russian Progress, and the European ATV [Automated Transfer Vehicle], it will be another means for us to get cargo to the space station, and also for us to get rid of trash from the space station when those vehicles leave. This is pretty exciting for me ’cause it’s different to those vehicles in that it’s going to require us to actually go out there with the big robotic arm and grab it once it’s flying alongside station; we’ll have some pretty significant robotic tasks involved with that, so…
In comparison to those other two, is it bigger, smaller in terms of the amount of cargo it can deliver?
It’s on par with the size of the European ATV, but the difference in it is that both the Russian Progress and the European ATV automatically fly to the station and then automatically dock with the station, so they join up and mate to the station on their own; there are backups in case something goes wrong there, that we could manually control it. But the HTV is kind of cool because it comes up, gets to about ten meters from the space station, and then the two vehicles, the space station and the HTV, are kind of flying along together,"

物質の新たな状態を生むレーザー技術
従来の物理学の常識を覆す研究が発表され、レーザー技術が新たに脚光
ドイツにあるボン大学のマルティン・ヴァイツ氏とウルリッヒ・フォーグル氏は、レーザーによって、凝固点をはるかに下回る温度まで高密度ルビジウムガスを冷却することに成功した。この技術によって、物質の新たな状態を生み出すことが可能になるかもしれないという。
「例えば水だ。もし0度をはるかに下回る温度まで急速に冷却できれば、通常通り氷に変化するのではなく、異種の結晶構造やガラス状の状態に変化する可能性がある」。 "

NASA Needs $3 Billion More a Year, Panel Tells Obama
"Sept. 8 (Bloomberg) -- NASA needs an extra $3 billion a year to send astronauts back to the moon or to deep-space flybys of Mars or asteroids and avoid an “unsustainable trajectory” of setting goals without adequate funding, a panel told President Barack Obama.
The panel is led by Norman Augustine, former chief executive of aerospace contractor Lockheed Martin Corp.
The next-generation Ares I rocket and Orion space capsule likely won’t be ready to fly astronauts and cargo to the ISS until at least 2017, two years beyond the current schedule, according to the panel, whose members include former astronaut Sally Ride. "
