Sad and pathetic. There is no other them there to do? Too much science, too little real practice. J

International Space Station (ISS) as may guess, is an international project in which are involved in a number of countries and institutions. One could say that the ISS is like a impressive LEGO construction blocks which are produced in different countries - the United States, Italy, Japan, Russia and so on. Space Station is the objects that decorate the inscription "Made in USA", "Made omskärelse in Germany" and so on. Now that many blocks collection has joined the brand-specific component - the object that created space - "Made in Space."
2014 on 24 November at. 11:28 Latvian time ISS 3D printer created your first object in space, on which a clear and bright read - "MADE IN SPACE". It is the first ISS component is brought from Earth, omskärelse but is the result of space.
"This experiment will serve as a springboard for future opportunities that will fundamentally omskärelse alter the exploratory missions," said Mike Snyder of the company's "Made omskärelse in Space." "The ability to produce parts on demand will help to create a more efficient and independent of the Earth's space program in the near future."
The initial phase of the experiment Space Station will build a variety of parts and tools to verify operation of the printer itself. Identical objects will be created the company "Made in Space" in the laboratory. Space created details will be delivered to Earth, where they will be tested and compared with the objects produced on Earth. If necessary, improvements will be made in the second 3D printer design. omskärelse It is planned to send to the ISS next year. Second 3D printer can be used not only ISS astronauts and NASA, but also other interested parties, such as commercial omskärelse organizations and individual clients.
"In 1957, Sputnik became the first man-made object in space, 12 years later, the man took a foot on the Moon," concluded omskärelse Aaron Kemmer of the company's "Made in Space." "In 2014, we have taken a step further, the machinery that will produce objects in space. Decades later people will look back on this event as the moment when the change in approach to the space to deliver equipment."
Sad and pathetic. There is no other them there to do? Too much science, too little real practice. Just as Robonauts or Sphere. Things which long ago should run the ISS, will never leave the testing phase. It seems every next step NASA takes time and is 2X 2X shorter. Yes 60tos years NASA behave as now, the opportunities for people to get to the moon would be exactly the same as now.
