Ever heard of environmental stress screening? Otherwise known as ESS? This is a testing methodology that is used to stress the heck out of a piece of technology to reveal any flaws, issues or inconsistencies in its design and production. One other major benefit of ESS testing is learning how the system behaves when the environment is not stable. Some signs of unstable environment would be: - Temperature fluctuation - Humidity fluctuation - Vibration or shock - Pressure/altitude fluctuation - Radioactive influence - Electrical interference - More! And of course, in warfare environments in the field, a piece of hardware or technology is bound to experience one or more of these environmental stresses...and likely at the same time in an unpredictable manner. ESS testing isn't just a "nice to have", it is ESSENTIAL.

Curious about why space is becoming weaponized? Here are some key reasons: - Many seek dominance in space. - Some doubt the effectiveness of space peace agreements. - Weaponization adds unpredictability to warfare. - Nations want an upper hand over those without space military assets. - Defense of valuable space assets like satellites is crucial. Understanding these motivations sheds light on the trend toward weaponizing space. #space #spacelaw #aerospace #satellites #military #weaponization #technology #worldwar #outerspace #law #legal #defence #Isro #nasa #esa #India

Pleased to share the story I wrote today for Aviation Week Network about the £1.18 million ($1.49 million) in funding that Rolls-Royce secured from the UK Space Agency that will be used to jointly develop technologies with the U.S. for a fission nuclear system for space power applications. Excerpts below: “Innovative technologies such as this one could pave the way for continuous human presence on the Moon, whilst enhancing the wider UK space sector, creating jobs and generating further investment,” Professor Anu Ojha, director of Championing Space at the UK Space Agency, said in an announcement. The new investment tranche follows a £2.9 million award that Rolls-Royce received from the UK Space Agency in March 2023 under the Lunar Surface Nuclear Power Contract and Phase 1 of the IBF project. In November 2023 at the UK Space Conference in Belfast, Rolls-Royce unveiled a conceptual nuclear reactor that could power a future Moon base for astronauts. This collaboration comes amid rising interest in the potential for nuclear power to significantly increase the length and scientific value of future space missions. If effectively utilized in space, nuclear power could deliver a “step change” in mission capability across a wide platform of applications, Rolls-Royce says. NASA believes that nuclear thermal propulsion could be a key technology powering future crewed missions to Mars because of its performance advantages over conventional chemical propulsion systems. #space #aerospace #nuclear #nasa #rollsroyce #science #technology #unitedkingdom https://lnkd.in/eRcfpTF6

Here's a summary of the key points about Kratos-X Security & Defense Ecosystem Solutions' Erinyes #Hypersonic Test Bed: 1. Successful first flight: The Erinyes Hypersonic Test Bed completed its first successful flight on June 12, 2024, at NASA - National Aeronautics and Space Administration's #Wallops Flight Facility in Virginia. 2. Collaborative effort: The test was a joint project involving Kratos' Space & Missile Defense Systems Business Unit, the Missile Defense Agency (MDA), and the Naval Surface Warfare Center (NSWC). 3. Hypersonic capabilities: The platform achieved hypersonic speeds (over Mach 5) and collected essential data for various experiments. 4. Cost-effective development: Kratos developed Erinyes in three years for under $15 million, with a single unit costing around $5 million (excluding the rocket motor). 5. Game-changing technology: The successful flight is seen as a breakthrough, providing an affordable and robust path for hypersonic experimentation. 6. Future implications: This achievement is significant for the United States' hypersonic technology capabilities, an area of intense global competition. 7. Expanding portfolio: Kratos is also developing the Zeus & Oriole family of Solid Rocket Motors for hypersonic testing and ballistic missile targets. 8. Market strategy: Kratos aims to disrupt the market with affordable, relevant systems in the hypersonic and rocket systems sector. 9. U.S. hypersonic development: The U.S. military currently doesn't have operational hypersonic weapons but is working on 9 different initiatives. 10. Accelerating research: The Erinyes program aims to speed up hypersonic experimentation and development within the U.S. Department of Defense. This successful test marks a significant step forward in U.S. hypersonic capabilities and could accelerate the development of these technologies for defense purposes.
