Common disarming methods use detonation, which can unleash damaging shrapnel and increase environmental contamination. However, one company has created a flare device — using NASA’s surplus solid rocket fuel — to safely destroy mines by burning away their explosive contents without hazardous detonation.</p> </div> </div> <div class="clearfix text-formatted field field--name-field-nasa-description field--type-text-with-summary field--label-above"> <div class="field__label">NASA Description</div> <div class="field__item"><p>The space shuttle's solid rocket boosters together contained approximately 2 million pounds of fuel at launch time, and they provided most of the shuttle's thrust for the two minutes they fired after launch and before separation. To provide a margin of error, NASA always has more rocket fuel on hand than it needs. One company entered into an agreement with the agency to use the leftover powerful fuel to disarm land mines.</p> </div> </div> <div class="field field--name-field-us-state field--type-entity-reference field--label-above"> <div class="field__label">US State</div> <div class="field__item"><a href="/taxonomy/term/49" hreflang="en">Utah</a></div> </div> <div class="field field--name-field-company field--type-string field--label-above"> <div class="field__label">Company</div> <div class="field__item">Thiokol Propulsion</div> </div> <div class="clearfix text-formatted field field--name-field-description field--type-text-long field--label-above"> <div class="field__label">Description</div> <div class="field__item"><p> <style type="text/css"> <!--/*--><![CDATA[/* ><!--*/ <!--td {border: 1px solid #ccc;}br {mso-data-placement:same-cell;}--> /*--><!]]>*/ </style> Learn more about how NASA helped develop technology that impacts land mine removal within your city's public safety environment!</p> </div> </div> Tue, 27 Mar 2018 14:41:15 +0000 admin 350 at https://nasaaws.missionmedia.net https://nasaaws.missionmedia.net/node/180 <span class="field field--name-title field--type-string field--label-hidden">Reflective insulation</span> <span class="field field--name-uid field--type-entity-reference field--label-hidden"><span lang="" about="/user/1" typeof="schema:Person" property="schema:name" datatype="">admin</span></span> <span class="field field--name-created field--type-created field--label-hidden">Fri, 03/23/2018 - 13:45</span> <div class="field field--name-field-product-name field--type-string field--label-above"> <div class="field__label">Product Name</div> <div class="field__item">Reflective insulation</div> </div> <div class="field field--name-field-product-photo-1 field--type-image field--label-above"> <div class="field__label">Product Photo 1</div> <div class="field__item"> <img loading="lazy" src="/sites/default/files/2018-03/home-outside-Reflective-insulation-1.JPG" width="1000" height="1500" alt="Man installing reflective insulation under house roof " typeof="foaf:Image" /> </div> </div> <div class="field field--name-field-nasa-photo-1 field--type-image field--label-above"> <div class="field__label">NASA Photo 1</div> <div class="field__item"> <img loading="lazy" src="/sites/default/files/2018-03/home-outside-Reflective-insulation-nasa-1.jpg" width="946" height="710" alt="People dwarfed by NASA&#039;s Echo II Mylar balloon satellite " typeof="foaf:Image" /> </div> </div> <div class="field field--name-field-nasa-photo-2 field--type-image field--label-above"> <div class="field__label">NASA Photo 2</div> <div class="field__item"> <img loading="lazy" src="/sites/default/files/2018-03/home-outside-Reflective-insulation-nasa-2_0.jpg" width="2048" height="1366" alt="Engineer lays radiant barrier insulation over wires on floor of NASA&#039;s Space Environment Simulator " typeof="foaf:Image" /> </div> </div> <div class="field field--name-field-video field--type-string field--label-above"> <div class="field__label">Video</div> <div class="field__item">https://youtu.be/ckHto7tgNI4</div> </div> <div class="field field--name-field-tech-related-links field--type-link field--label-above"> <div class="field__label">Tech Related Links</div> <div class="field__item"><a href="https://spinoff.nasa.gov/Spinoff2013/cg_6.html">Visit RadiaSource spinoff page </a></div> </div> <div class="clearfix text-formatted field field--name-field-product-description field--type-text-with-summary field--label-above"> <div class="field__label">Product Description</div> <div class="field__item"><p>One of the most common insulators used in homes and facilities is known as radiant barrier, or a layer of reflective material that keeps heat in or out of indoor spaces. Perfected by NASA early in the space program, you can also find radiant barrier in emergency blankets and in sheets that help keep beer and other beverages cold.</p> </div> </div> <div class="clearfix text-formatted field field--name-field-nasa-description field--type-text-with-summary field--label-above"> <div class="field__label">NASA Description</div> <div class="field__item"><p>Most everyday insulation — such as clothing, blankets, and travel mugs — works by preventing the conduction of heat from one side to the other. But early in the space program, NASA engineers calculated that to insulate a spacesuit against the temperature extremes of space, conventional insulation would have to be several feet thick. So they turned instead to materials that would reflect radiation and eventually mastered the technology. Today, radiant barrier technology is commonly used at NASA and throughout the world.</p> </div> </div> <div class="field field--name-field-us-state field--type-entity-reference field--label-above"> <div class="field__label">US State</div> <div class="field__item"><a href="/taxonomy/term/49" hreflang="en">Utah</a></div> </div> <div class="field field--name-field-company field--type-string field--label-above"> <div class="field__label">Company</div> <div class="field__item">RadiaSource</div> </div> <div class="clearfix text-formatted field field--name-field-description field--type-text-long field--label-above"> <div class="field__label">Description</div> <div class="field__item"><p> <style type="text/css"> <!--/*--><![CDATA[/* ><!--*/ <!--td {border: 1px solid #ccc;}br {mso-data-placement:same-cell;}--> /*--><!]]>*/ </style> Learn more about how NASA helped develop technology that impacts reflective insulation within your home's outside environment!</p> </div> </div> Fri, 23 Mar 2018 17:45:12 +0000 admin 180 at https://nasaaws.missionmedia.net
