Studying Pneumonia in Space for Heart Health on Earth

official news from : https://bit.ly/2QkyIbY Expedition 74 astronauts aboard the International Space Station are uncovering how bacteria that causes pneumonia can lead to long-term damage in the heart. Researchers are leveraging the space environment to observe how stem cell derived heart tissues respond to bacterial infections, to discover new methods to manage cardiovascular health andContinue reading “Studying Pneumonia in Space for Heart Health on Earth”

NASA Langley Engineer Attends FAA Training

official news from : https://bit.ly/2QkyIbY At a busy airport, every aircraft in the area shares just a handful of radio frequencies. Spectrum and time are constrained and if multiple people speak at once, both messages can get lost. Communications like “clearance delivery,” which require long transmissions and readbacks, are challenging in high-traffic areas, particularly whenContinue reading “NASA Langley Engineer Attends FAA Training”
