The suits are now being evaluated for use with future programs including NASA 's Orion capsule development—and modified capability to perform spacewalks in the event of a capsule emergency need (e.g., a solar panel that won't deploy).
The designation being read from the hyphen out indicates that is was originally designated to be a reconnaissance aircraft (part of a family of reconnaissance planes, since it was replacing the A-12 as a spy-plane) with modified capability to be a Spaceplane.
Or at least it was, before it was genetically modified for capabilities far beyond its own.
In this study, hydrophobic (CF4, C6F14 and DCM) and hydrophilic (H2O) plasma treatments were screened for surface modifying capabilities with hydrophilic (PES and nylon) and hydrophobic (PP) polymer membrane systems respectively.
These results indicate that the dynamic bifunctional organocatalysts might be utilized as primitive switches, especially given the discovered self-modifying capabilities of this class of catalysts.
Given YKS's stress-modifying capabilities, we hypothesized that it could exert its effect by impacting the HPA axis, and more specifically, by regulating GR expression in the hypothalamus.
The efficacy of combination therapy of the promising medicinal plants with novobiocin was additionally determined by measuring the resistant modifying capabilities of the extracts at varying concentrations ranging from 7.8 to 250 μg/ml.
All compounds modified the capability of OAT1 and OAT3 to transport endogenous substrates in vitro, whilst two compounds (syringic acid and sinapinic acid) weakly affected OAT4 [ 47].
At the Air Force Research Laboratory, Space Vehicles Directorate, we are interested in improving the performance of or modifying the capabilities of infrared detectors in order to locate and identify dim and/or distant objects in space.
Gandhian innovation also focuses on the BoP, frugality, and simplicity but gives much more attention to creating and modifying internal capabilities and using external technology through technology transfer.
