【タイトル】The thrills! The chills! Soon you'll be able… 【掲載元】http://www.nasa.gov/vision/universe/solarsys… 【ファイルサイズ】1.7MB 【説明】The thrills! The chills! Soon you'll be able to see for the first time ever, in dazzling three dimensions ...sthe Sun. Imagine solar prominences looping out into space for thousands of miles. Now picture a billion megaton blast of solar plasma flying toward Earth and the effect it would have on astronauts, satellites in orbit, airplanes, and power grids, which are vulnerable to such a burst. Now you're starting to see why we need a better understanding of that powerful and dynamic star. The upcoming Solar TErrestrial RElations Observatory ( STEREO ) mission will help provide the big picture by using two nearly identical spacecraft to image the Sun and track its activity in high definition 3-D. Particularly crucial will be its observations of coronal mass ejections, or CMEs, the most powerful explosions in the solar system. Related to solar flares (scientists still don't really know which comes first), CMEs can pack the force of a billion megaton nuclear bombs.

In terms of space weather forecasting, we're where weather forecasters were in the 1950s. They didn't see hurricanes until the rain clouds were right above them; in our case, we can see storms leaving the Sun but we have to make guesses and use models to figure out if and when it will impact Earth, said Dr. Michael Kaiser, Project Scientist for STEREO at NASA Goddard Space Flight Center.

The spacecraft are being assembled in the APL Cleanroom . Credit: NRL/NASA/Chris Gunn. There's a strong fleet of satellites observing the Sun right now, but even with missions like SOHO , which images the Sun every 10 to 15 minutes, scientists still can't definitively say if a CME is coming toward Earth or traveling away from it -- for that we need to see the third dimension. When you're trying to figure out what really makes a CME go, knowing where it is in space is crucial. At this point we don't quite know where it is, how fast it's traveling, or how one structure interacts with another, said Dr. Terry Kucera, Deputy Project Scientist for the mission.

Credit: NASA/Tom Bridgman If you only saw stuff with one eye you lose the ability to judge perspective and depth, said Dr. Alex Young, a NASA scientist. Basically we're looking at the Sun with one eye. With STEREO, we're finally going to have the ability to gain this extra dimension, or this depth perception we didn't have before. STEREO's spacecraft are just as unique and groundbreaking as its mission. It marks the first time that two spacecraft will launch on the same rocket, and then swing around the Moon to get into separate orbits. Once there, STEREO 'A' will fly ahead of the Earth and STEREO 'B' will fly behind it. When the solar arrays are deployed, the spacecraft will be about the length of a large school bus.

Click on image for animation or download higher resolution stills and movies. Credit: NASA/Chris Meaney Building two spacecraft at the same time requires twice the amount of knowledge, but isn't that much harder with the right team, said Jim Adams, the Deputy Project Manager. Each STEREO observatory has a total of 16 instruments, all of which are still being assembled in labs throughout the world. In the summer they will all be brought to The Johns Hopkins Applied Physics Lab for assembly and initial testing, and then to NASA Goddard Space Flight Center for final testing. STEREO launches in February 2006 from the Cape Canaveral Air Force Station in Florida. Besides improving space weather forecasting and understanding for Earth systems, STEREO is also an important key to understanding the Sun's influence throughout the solar system.

Scientists still don't fully understand the origins and evolution of these massive storms. Credit: NASA/Walt Feimer. Here on Earth we're protected by the atmosphere and magnetic fields from the Sun's radiation. But as NASA gears up to send astronauts to the Moon and beyond, we're going to need a better understanding of the dangerous solar particles accelerated by shock waves from CMEs. One of the biggest mysteries confronting scientists: why does one CME produce a major storm and another one does not? To some degree, we're getting knocked around and seeing bits and pieces. With STEREO, we'll get a chance to step back and see a CME from the outside in all its glory ... We're not just going to see CMEs coming toward us, but we'll see how they move through the solar system, said Young.

To then take that rocket to a NASA facility, put it on a launcher and work side-by-side with NASA people to check it out before launch? Then wouldn''t it be awesome to actually push the launch button and send the rocket skyward? A group of 12 blind students recently showcased their abilities and did just that. Image to right: Phil Eberspeaker, Chief of the Sounding Rockets Program Office, works with the 12 students participating in the National Federation for the Blind Rocket On! camp. The students are integrating their experiments with the rocket in the pad 2 assembly building. Credit: NASA During the week of August 15-21, NASA partnered with the National Federation of the Blind (NFB) to host the Rocket On science camp. The camp was composed of twelve smart, motivated and enthusiastic blind high school students from around the country who had an interest and aptitude in science. The week was full of hands-on exercises that allowed each student to learn more about technology, science, engineering and mathematics. NASA engineers and instructors with the NFB Jernigan Institute presented workshops on the history of rocketry, basic rocket physics and basic electronics. Blind people have been excluded from science, said Mark Riccobono, Manager of Education Programs for the NFB Jernigan Institute. Many people have misconceptions that the blind cannot dissect or observe the stars. Because of these misconceptions blind people start tracking out of the science field. That is why this partnership is so important; it shows that blind people are capable of doing science. The week began at the NFB Jernigan Institute where the twelve students were grouped into 3 teams: Trajectory Analysis or the Ego Squad ; Launch Pad Operations or Team Action Reaction ; and Sensor Facilitation or Circuiteers. Each team served an important mission for launch preparation. Team Ego Squad used a graphing calculator to position the rocket to optimize flight. The calculations allowed the students to forecast the height, speed, and position of the landing. Alyshe, a 16-year-old from Kansas, said, This week has been an amazing opportunity. Through the use of the graphing calculator, our group was able to make sound predictions regarding flight. Image to left: The NFB students including Lindsay of Wash., get close-up to the rocket launch rail on pad 2. Credit: NASA Team Action Reaction was responsible for all physical aspects of positioning and launching the rocket. I have learned a lot in this group. We learned electronics, physics and mathematics, said 16-year-old Amy from Maryland. Team Circuiteers installed the four sensors into the payload. The four sensors consisted of thermistor, photo resistor, accelerometer and transducer. The thermistor is used to test the temperature change around the rocket. The photo resistor analyzed the motion of the payload depending upon the sunlight. The accelerometer assessed the acceleration of the rocket. Lastly, the transducer tested atmospheric pressure. Hoby, a 17-year-old from California, said, In this group you learn about basic physics and Newton''s Law. I am really excited that I was assigned to this team. I am fascinated with circuitry. On Wednesday and Thursday, the students transported their payload and knowledge to NASA Wallops Flight Facility, Wallops Island, Va., to prepare for launch. The students launched their ten and a half foot rocket on Thursday, August 19, at 8:33 a.m. Through audible signals the students were able to determine the readiness of their experiments and the rocket. Their rocket reached an altitude of 4,902 feet. The kids were focused on their task and really got into it. Each student worked hard with the launch personnel. They were stationed at the blockhouses at 4:00 a.m. in order to prepare for their rocket launch. Overall they really did a fantastic job, said Keith Koehler, a Public Affairs Specialist at Wallops. Image to right: The NFB rocket leaves the launch pad. Credit: NASA The intent of the Wallops experience was to allow each student to safely participate in as many launch activities as possible. This included preparing the payload, loading the rocket on the launch rail, engaging in payload and rocket checks, and conducting the launch. The week ended with a visit to the Goddard Space Flight Center in Greenbelt, Md., to reveal their findings at a mock press conference. Dr. Nancy Maynard, Director of the NASA Initiative of the Blind at Goddard, delivered the welcoming address. This is the very first bold step to improve the opportunities for careers in technology, mathematics, engineering and science. NASA needs more smart, motivated minds to carry out the mission, says Dr. Maynard. Dr. Ed Weiler, Goddard''s Center Director, said during his opening remarks, I am anxious to see the data these fine students discovered. We need young, intelligent people to work at NASA. I would love to see each of these students come back and do a co-op tour with us. NASA has an exciting future. This generation will be able to answer the question, ''Are we alone in the Universe?''
