Low Leakage Cryogenic Disconnects for Fuel Transfer and Long-Term Storage
To enable deep space missions, the capability to transfer and store cryogenic fuels typically liquid hydrogen, methane, and oxygen without significant leakage over long duration missions is critical. NASA has been actively developing zero boil-off cryocooler technology to reduce storage losses. Another source of fuel loss is from leakage at the160;fuel disconnect160;used for in-space refueling. 8230;. https://www.nasa.gov/direc...#nasa #space #news #nasa_general #nasa_aeronautics #nasa_flight_innovation #nasa_commercial_resupply #nasa_iss_research #nasa_johnson_space_center #nasa_kennedy_space_center #nasa_events #nasa_artemis #nasa_artemis_2 #nasa_people_of_goddard #nasa_nasa_en_español #nasa_people_of_nasa #nasa_nasa_history #nasa_ames_research_center #nasa_high -tech_computing #nasa_technology #nasa_discovery_program #nasa_earth 's_moon #nasa_mars

NASA Furthers Aeronautical Innovation Using Model-Based Systems
As NASA continues cutting-edge aeronautics research, the agency also is taking steps to make sure the benefits from these diverse technologies are greater than the sum of their parts. To tackle that challenge, NASA is using Model-Based Systems Analysis and Engineering MBSAE. This type of engineering digitally simulates how multiple technologies could best work together 8230;. https://www.nasa.gov/aeron...#nasa #space #news #nasa_general #nasa_aeronautics #nasa_flight_innovation #nasa_commercial_resupply #nasa_iss_research #nasa_johnson_space_center #nasa_kennedy_space_center #nasa_events #nasa_artemis #nasa_artemis_2 #nasa_people_of_goddard #nasa_nasa_en_español #nasa_people_of_nasa #nasa_nasa_history #nasa_ames_research_center #nasa_high -tech_computing #nasa_technology #nasa_discovery_program #nasa_earth 's_moon #nasa_mars
