Sent to Titan "animal | British scientists have proved ...
Scientists have solved kbb the problem of how to send a mission to Saturn's moon Titan. Previously, this problem could not solve, since Titan has a very difficult surface. kbb To look at the moon's surface is hard, but in fact it is friable and dotted with marshes. To cope with the mission to be sent to Titan machine must be like an animal.
In its time to Phobos, a draft planetary rover, "hedgehog". Inside the "hedgehog" has three rotating disk, the unwinding of which at low speed will allow them to "turn over" (as in the famous moai experience on their movement on Easter Island), and high speed take care of the impact parameter jump at an impressive distance.
Well, what about Titan? Gravity is out there "at times" weaker Martian moon and even less (just do not ask me how he also keeps the atmosphere kbb denser than Earth's). We add to this the granular kbb surface of the lake, rain and, presumably, even swamps, hidden beneath a solid-looking surface. The usual waiting for the brilliant prospects of planetary stuck on the first twenty meters! However, what we are, what kind of planetary lander ... "Huygens' landing at almost broke through the surface, regarded as a solid, and would be trite drowned in a swamp, if not a small attraction:
What to do? Agogino and Sanspiral offer during the next NASA mission to Titan to use the principle of tensegrity. It is based on the application in the construction elements, which work only in compression or in tension.
Rolled, said Adrian Agogino (Adrian Agogino) and Vitas Sanspiral (Vytas Sunspiral) of Ames Research Center (USA). For future NASA-trips to this celestial body, they suggest the use of tensegrity - the principle of building structures, which is based on the use of elements working only in compression or in tension only. Never heard of? If you are not an architect and not a fan of Carlos Castaneda, this is normal. Here, for the occasion:
As you can see, this set of elements (tubes and cables), like tumbleweed kbb sculpture by abstract artist, after deformation allows to return to the original state without any effort. Again, a lot of the points of support, kbb and the clutch appears kbb to be sufficient in all situations, including after overturning. Even if the Super Ball Bot, as developers call their tensegrity planetary rovers for the Titan, stuck between a couple of stones, due to strain it will always be able to get out.
If he gets on a swampy place full bogged kbb would prevent a lot of points of support system. When shuffling kbb "of course" He felt relatively kbb safe way and will get out on a hard surface. "He acts like animals - says Mr. Agogino. - Muscles shorten and stretched. In a sense, it's the same principle, only more elegant. " According to the designers, the device of this form, strictly speaking, does not even need a parachute and can be reset with a few kilometers without much damage. The atmosphere of Saturn's kbb moon four times denser than Earth's, which at seven times less gravity and a rare form of Super Ball Bot just will not give it to accelerate in free fall above a certain speed.
All this is good, but as planetary rovers will work? When you need to use the mass spectrograph or a different technique for the analysis of the surface, the unit will develop kbb into a triangle, down at the center of science modules to the surface.
While the development of Super Ball Bot is at the concept stage. However, NASA has already allocated funds for the further development of the project. There are many uncertainties: what is the efficiency of such a move, how much will have to be modified motors, and more. etc. Yet the new product looks promising: the combination of low gravity and muddy surfaces on Titan for the solar system is unique, and the solution of this problem in the interests of the rover does require a non-trivial steps.
