Keeping Astronauts Cool
| |
By Nan King
Passing through atmospheres, whether it be earth, mars or titan, poses problems in space exploration. Nan visited The Von Karman Institute in Brussels where research is going on into some unlikely new material that could be used to insulate space craft.
Nan’s trip to Von Karman was thanks to the EU funded project RELATE which has sent 80 science journalists to report on all kinds of research going on at centres across Europe. To find out more about the success of this valuable project visit http://relateproject.eu/

This is all fascinating, very complex stuff simplified for the layman. Interesting to find out about areas of research we are not normally aware of and really great to see people who are so motivated by their work.
