Future Space Exploration

For half a century we've been visiting the cosmos.

This is a look at some of the missions and technologies we will pursue in the next 50 years and beyond as we continue to explore the infinite space around us. In the short-term, NASA's only committed to servicing and manning the International Space Station until 2024, so there's a good chance the project will be deorbited within the decade.

Meanwhile, the Chinese are working toward building their own space station.

It's not for keeping Han Solo or astronauts, like in Interstellar, alive, it's to store large amounts of energy for the long distances necessary to reach deep space. Nanotechnology will make new satellites and space probes tiny and cheap.

Highly concentrated energy beams fired from Earth could continuously power these tiny objects at ultra-high-speeds away from Earth. These beams could also vaporize asteroids threatening our planet. Another idea is for tiny “cubesats” to bombard the surface of asteroids and comets to gather seismic readings that would reveal what's beneath their surfaces. Powerful radio waves shot out of quasars and pulsars act like a map and could guide an autopilot system for spacecraft venturing into deep space.

Chemicals mined from asteroids could be used as fuel for spaceships. Another asteroid project would extract 100 tons of water by drilling into it with concentrated sunlight -- a technique called optical mining -- and then keep the frozen ice ball in Earth orbit for use in later, manned missions.

Then there's “the hopper,” a rocket-powered vehicle that could explore Neptune's moon Triton -- which only has 8% of Earth's gravity -- could hop off the surface and circle the moon in one bounce.

Robots powered by wind and the magnetic fields of host planets could allow for the exploration of the atmospheres of Jupiter and Saturn.

And Jupiter's shifting magnetic field could also power a squid-like rover that could even be submerged in the subsurface saltwater ocean on its moon Europa. Space-based telescopes with magnetic mirrors will allow them to move to correct for image distortion--a much more dynamic approach than today's generations of giant telescopes with fixed mirrors.

Another effort aims to replace expensive, curved mirrors in space telescopes altogether by substituting them for an ultra-thin film that achieves the same effect at a fraction of the cost.

Hives of tiny, inexpensive robots could swarm the coldest, dark sides of our moon to gather samples and then come together to heat them up and report back the data.

“Thirsty Walls” is a complete reimagining of the Air Revitalization system (AR) to recycle air in a highly efficient way in microgravity so people can survive long-range missions.

The oxygen supply problem is one of the main challenges in getting humans to Mars. Which project do you think most needs to succeed?

For half a century we’ve been visiting the cosmos. 半世紀にわたり、私たちは宇宙を訪れてきました。

This is a look at some of the missions and technologies we will pursue in the next 50 years and beyond as we continue to explore the infinite space around us. |||||||||||||осуществлять|||||||||||||||| これは、私たちの周りの無限の空間を探求し続ける中で、今後 50 年、さらにその先に私たちが追求するミッションとテクノロジーの一部を示しています。 In the short-term, NASA’s only committed to servicing and manning the International Space Station until 2024, so there’s a good chance the project will be deorbited within the decade. |||||||||||||||||||||||||выведен с ор||| ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||ten years ||||||||||運営|||||||||||||||軌道を離れる||| |||||||||||||||||||||||||desorbitado||| 短期的には、NASA は 2024 年まで国際宇宙ステーションの整備と人員配置に専念しているだけなので、プロジェクトが 10 年以内に軌道から外れる可能性は十分にあります。

Meanwhile, the Chinese are working toward building their own space station. enquanto|||||||||| 一方、中国は独自の宇宙ステーションの建設に取り組んでいます。

So space is currently undergoing this transformation as companies begin to fulfill the relatively simple tasks of taking people, cargo, and satellites into orbit, while NASA has shifted its focus to much more difficult challenges, like capturing and mining asteroids and sending man to Mars. ||||претерпевает|||||||выполнять||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||| |||||||||||||||||||cargo||||||||||||||||||||||||| ||||passando por|||||||||||||||||||||||mudado|||||||||||mineração|||||| Por lo tanto, el espacio actualmente está experimentando esta transformación a medida que las compañías comienzan a cumplir las tareas relativamente simples de llevar a las personas, la carga y los satélites a la órbita, mientras que la NASA ha cambiado su enfoque hacia desafíos mucho más difíciles, como capturar y extraer asteroides y enviar al hombre a Marte. そのため、企業が人、貨物、衛星を軌道に乗せるという比較的単純なタスクを実行し始める一方で、NASA は小惑星の捕獲と採掘、火星への人間の派遣など、はるかに困難な課題に焦点を移しているため、宇宙は現在この変化を遂げています。 But many obstacles will need to be overcome before either mission becomes a reality, including protecting astronauts from exposure to high levels of radiation from the Sun and getting people to, and successfully landing on, the Red Planet. しかし、宇宙飛行士を太陽からの高レベルの放射線にさらされることから保護し、人々を火星に到達させ、着陸に成功させるなど、どちらのミッションも現実になる前に、多くの障害を克服する必要があります。 For example, if a human entered the Martian atmosphere at the same speed the curiosity rover did, our retinas would detach from our eyes. ||||||||||||||||||сетчатки||||| たとえば、人間がキュリオシティローバーと同じ速度で火星の大気圏に入ると、網膜が目から離れます。 Por exemplo, se um humano entrasse na atmosfera marciana na mesma velocidade que o rover da curiosidade, nossas retinas se desprenderiam de nossos olhos. So to get a sense for how researchers are imagining the future of space, let’s take a look at the 15 projects NASA just funded with $100,000 grants. Para tener una idea de cómo los investigadores se están imaginando el futuro del espacio, echemos un vistazo a los 15 proyectos que la NASA acaba de financiar con $ 100,000 subvenciones. 研究者が宇宙の未来をどのように想像しているかを理解するために、NASA が 10 万ドルの助成金を提供したばかりの 15 のプロジェクトを見てみましょう。 Superconducting systems that can stay 50 degrees celsius cooler than their surroundings to allow for long-term cryogenic freezing. ||||||||||||||||криогенные| ||||||||||||||||cryogenic| ||||||||||||||||冷凍| Los sistemas superconductores que pueden mantenerse 50 grados centígrados más frescos que sus alrededores para permitir la congelación criogénica a largo plazo. 周囲よりも摂氏 50 度の温度を維持できる超電導システムで、長期の極低温冷凍が可能です。

It’s not for keeping Han Solo or astronauts, like in Interstellar, alive, it’s to store large amounts of energy for the long distances necessary to reach deep space. インターステラーのように、ハン・ソロや宇宙飛行士を生かしておくためではなく、深宇宙に到達するために必要な長距離のために大量のエネルギーを蓄えるためのものです.
