À propos de cet audio
Dr. Hakeem Ali-Bocas Alexander reveals how engineers balance weight, strength, and functionality to create vessels that can carry us to other worlds.
•Discover how spacecraft materials must withstand extreme temperature fluctuations, intense radiation, and microgravity while remaining lightweight enough for efficient launch and travel.
•Explore the different propulsion systems—from chemical rockets for launch to ion drives for long journeys—and how engineers select the right technology for each mission phase.
•Learn about advanced thermal control systems that use insulation, radiators, and heaters to protect sensitive equipment from temperature extremes ranging from scorching heat to deep cold.
•Understand how closed-loop life support systems recycle air and water for long-duration missions and why habitation design is crucial for astronaut health and psychological well-being during years in space.
