NASA's Innovative Advanced Concepts (NIAC) program is supporting the development of a potentially game-changing antenna design called the Large Balloon Reflector (LBR). The LBR is an inflatable device that creates wide collection apertures for space-based sensing and communications. The concept turns part of the inside surface of an inflated sphere into a parabolic antenna, offering a lightweight alternative to current deployable antennas. With funding from NIAC and the U.S. Naval Research Laboratory, a 33-foot-diameter LBR was successfully demonstrated. This innovative technology has the potential to revolutionize space-based communication systems.
Researchers in Korea have synthesized a room temperature superconductor material, LK-99, which operates at ambient pressure and has a critical temperature (Tc) above 400 K. The material exhibits superconductivity due to a slight volume shrinkage caused by Cu2+ substitution of Pb2+ ions, resulting in an insulator-metal transition. If confirmed, this breakthrough could significantly reduce energy losses and has the potential to revolutionize various industries. Other room temperature superconductors, such as those developed by the University of Nevada and the University of Rochester, also show promise.
