The wealthiest people of the time – philanthropists, philanthropists, and benefactors – have become concerned with solving the urgent problems facing humanity. By organizing scientific and philanthropic foundations worldwide, they contribute to the civilization’s progress as a whole.
The solar sail technology today is more like a sci-fi movie plot, but the development of ultrafast nanosatellites is more than real. The main advantage of solar sails is the absence of a rocket propulsion system and its fuel supply. This mass can be replaced with other payloads.
Powering spacecraft is one of the most important challenges directly affecting the success and duration of space missions. In the inner part of our solar system (up to Jupiter’s orbit), this problem is often solved by collecting and converting light or photon radiation from the Sun.
Wishing to revive cultural values and ideals, the philosophers and inventors of the Renaissance developed a new sociocultural formation that will be remembered as a transitional period between the Middle Ages and the New Age. This article is about people, theories, and inventions that made it happen
In the first installment, we talked about the most famous unsuccessful lunar missions. Now let’s talk about the failures in the conquest of deep space. Most of them are connected in one way or another with Mars, although space technology has also failed on the way to other celestial bodies.
Asteroseismology could prove a real breakthrough in the field of remote study of stars, in particular our Sun. Today, we will explain how asteroseismology makes it possible to shed light on the fundamental processes occurring inside stars.
Engineering thought was able to overcome the Dark Ages and, at the end of the Renaissance, even emerged as the full-fledged science of classical mechanics. This article is about the inventions and discoveries that preceded this process.
The conquest of space did not always go according to plan, and it involved a great deal of learning from mistakes.. Over the six decades of the space age, many spacecraft have crashed on their way to the moon. In this material, we will consider the most resonant of these failures.
As they observed the forces of the universe around them, the ancients tried to learn how to harness them. The result of their zeal was the emergence of amazing machines and mechanisms. Here is our first article in a series dedicated to the development of science and technology.
