These suspensions are 1 block narrower/shorter than the existing ones. So where a regular 3×3 wheel suspension is 2 blocks wide, these ones are just 1 block wide! Flat Atmospheric Thrusters Flat Atmospheric Thruster – S + L grid Large Flat Atmospheric Thruster – S + L grid Flat Atmosphe...

The atmospheric kind have been with us for more than 90 years — a shade longer than tanks — so they're no passing fad. What works in one environment, however, isn't automatically suited to a very different one, and fighter planes don't fight in space any more than tanks do. (Yes...
Velocity and direction imparted, the thruster would detach and return to Rodeo orbit for the next load. The unmanned pod bundle would continue on its slow, cheap way to its target, one of a long train stretching from Rodeo to the anomaly in space that was the jump point. Once there, ...
Engineers assessed that fragments of the bolts could also damage the shuttle. They designed a bolt catcher to prevent the bolts from damaging the ET or hitting the orbiter. Photo courtesy NASA To detect falling debris and possible damage to the shuttle, NASA has done the following: One ...

In most of the “most likely” space emergencies, engineers had come to the fatalistic conclusion that system failures would result in the loss of the crew within at most a few minutes. Consequently, a rescue ship would not have time to reach them. The lesson was clear: build each spacecr...
but due to the influence of atmospheric resistance, the fading speed of the object with low orbit is faster, and the average flux at the 550 km is larger during the overall working time in orbit, so the risk of satellite collision is higher. As can be seen fromTable 5, the collision ...
