Learn about the antenna that NASA is developing made of aerogel, a lightweight material, intended to enhance satcom in ...

Researchers use a flat aerogel array antenna to communicate with a geostationary satellite above the Earth during tests at ...

His musings on space turned out to be apt, because in the late 90s, NASA scientists fashioned silica-based aerogel onto a massive, tennis-racket-shaped collector that sat outside its Stardust ...

Space agency has tested rigid and ground-based versions of a state-of-the-art antenna and aims to field an aerogel-based ...

Aerogel — that mixture of air and silica — is one of those materials that seems like a miracle. It is almost not there since the material is 99% air. [NileRed] wanted to make his own and he ...

It’s called aerogel, and its chief ingredient is air. Maybe you’ve heard of aerogel: NASA used the spongy substance on its Stardust probe to capture interstellar particles. But that hunk of ...

The fashion brand announced on Instagram on Monday that it has created a bag made 99% of air and 1% of glass with NASA’s nanomaterial “silica aerogel,” which it said is the lightest solid on ...

NASA researchers found traces of glycine—one of the amino acids that make up the proteins in all living things—on the aluminum foil lining the sides of the aerogel cubes. The discovery ...

this photo taken with a microscope shows the impact paths and bodies of small particles of comet debris from U.S. space agency NASA’s Stardust mission in 2004. The aerogel helps decelerate the ...
