official news from : https://bit.ly/2QkyIbY Until now, additive manufacturing, commonly known as 3D printing, of engine components was limited by the lack of affordable metal alloys that could withstand the extreme temperatures of spaceflight. Expensive metal alloys were the only option for 3D printing engine parts until NASA’s Glenn Research Center in Cleveland, Ohio, developedContinue reading “NASA-Developed Printable Metal Can Take the Heat”

official news from : https://bit.ly/2QkyIbY Human-rating is a critical certification process that validates the safety, reliability, and suitability of space systems—including orbiters, launch vehicles, rovers, spacesuits, habitats, and other crewed elements—for human use and interaction. This process ensures that systems are designed not only to protect human life but also to accommodate human needs and effectivelyContinue reading “Human Rating and NASA-STD-3001”
