Lunar lasers and cosmic crops: NASA funds UArizona space exploration missions

Many things change for astronauts when they leave Earth and head into space, but at least one remains the same: They need food and water. NASA recently awarded funding to two University of Arizona teams to search for water and grow food in space.

Led by researchers in the College of Engineering and College of Agriculture and Life Sciences, the missions focus on harvesting water from the lunar surface and improving techniques for microgravity crop production.

Harvesting Water from the Moon’s South Pole

There are craters in the moon’s south pole that have remained dark for billions of years, but scientists have found evidence that the region may contain water. Not only critical for sustaining human life, water can be used on robotic missions as fuel, a radiation shield or a form of thermal energy storage.

As part of its Artemis Student Challenge, NASA awarded nearly $1 million to eight university teams to develop new methods to search for, and eventually extract, water from these permanently shadowed regions.

A joint team of researchers, led by the Colorado School of Mines in partnership with University of Arizona, received $114,000 for a project that combines laser power with FemtoSats—tiny, disposable satellites about the size of a stick of butter developed in the UArizona SpaceTREx Laboratory.

“Students are actually building an entire system, which is very rare to do, particularly in the field of aerospace,” said Jekan Thanga, assistant professor of aerospace and mechanical engineering and head of the SpaceTREx Laboratory at the University of Arizona. “Our project is a stepping stone to building up the necessary technologies to prospect and extract water on the lunar surface.”

The Colorado School of Mines is exploring the concept of using lasers to power lights and machinery used for lunar exploration. Although pairing lasers with “the dark side of the moon” might seem like a no-brainer, the researchers need a low-cost, low-risk way to test the viability of using laser signals for power and communication in a lunar environment. Enter the FemtoSats.

“The special thing about these guys (FemtoSats) is that they’re so low-cost that you can send tens, hundreds, maybe even thousands for the price of one regular satellite,” Thanga said. “Since the environment of the moon’s south pole is so unknown to us, disposable spacecraft are a perfect way to explore these regions without risking damage to more expensive spacecraft.”

In the proposed mission, a lander-mounted laser will touch down on the surface of the moon and launch the FemtoSats to different points on the lunar surface using a jack-in-the-box-like mechanism. The FemtoSats will receive the signal from the laser and transmit it back to demonstrate the validity of using the laser for communication.

“One of the most exciting things about this challenge is that several of the concepts, if proven to be viable as a result of these awards, could eventually be integrated and operated together on the surface of the moon,” said Chad Rowe, acting Space Grant project manager at NASA Headquarters in Washington, D.C.

University of Arizona students involved in the project include graduate student Alvaro Diaz and undergraduates Matthew Johnson and Viru Vilvanathan—all in the College of Engineering. The Colorado School of Mines team consists of graduate students Ross Centers, David Dickson, Loren Kezer, Joshua Schertz and Adam Janikowski, led by George Sowers, professor of practice in mechanical engineering.

Growing Crops in Space

Manned space exploration has long captured the hearts and minds of people across the globe. However, one of the major hurdles for humans’ sustained presence on the moon and beyond remains: a sustainable and efficient means of providing astronauts with nutritious and freshly grown fruits and vegetables.

The challenge? Zero gravity. To put it simply, water behaves differently in space.

“There’s no gravity, so it’s very different than watering a garden in your backyard,” said Murat Kacira, director of the Controlled Environment Agriculture Center and professor in the Department of Biosystems Engineering. “Keeping a proper balance of water and nutrients at the roots and maintaining sufficient oxygen levels for crops are real issues.”

Various systems for crop production on the space station have been evaluated and demonstrated with success, including the Biomass Production System, Vegetable Production System and Advanced Plant Habitat.

In the Vegetable Production System, popularly known as VEGGIE, a garden about the size of a piece of carry-on luggage typically holds about six plants. Each plant grows in a “pillow” filled with a clay substrate and fertilizer designed to help distribute water, nutrients and oxygen around the root zone.

However, challenges remain for sustained food production.

To improve upon current designs and support its goals to further human space exploration, NASA has awarded $1.12 million to the University of Arizona and four other investigative teams. The charge: to develop an improved water and nutrient delivery system for growing crops in microgravity conditions that is compatible with the limited available space in lunar surface habitats and spacecraft.

Led by Kacira, the UArizona team brings together several researchers behind the university’s Prototype Lunar/Mars Greenhouse and Bioregenerative Life Support Systems efforts, including Phil Sadler, a botanist and innovator responsible for the overall design and fabrication of the Lunar/Mars Greenhouse modules, and Roberto Furfaro, director of the College of Engineering’s Space Systems Engineering Laboratory.

“Building on our history with bioregenerative life support systems, we have assembled an incredible interdisciplinary team of scientists and engineers,” said Kacira. “The technology we’re developing not only supports the future in space exploration but can be used to improve food production right here on Earth.”

Other team members include Kitt Farrell-Poe, head of the Department of Biosystems Engineering and an expert in biological processes, water quality and water treatment systems; Minkyu Kim, a biomedical engineer specializing in artificial protein design and synthesis, polymer physics and soft materials; Barry Pryor, a professor in the School of Plant Sciences who specializes in plant health management, plant pathology and mycology; John Adams, the deputy director of Biosphere 2 and an expert in wildlife, fisheries and biology; and Neal Barto, a horticultural engineer who will support sensor development, instrumentation and system monitoring.

The University of Arizona will also partner with Stefania De Pascale, Veronica De Micco, Youssef Rouphael and Chiara Amitrano from the University of Naples Federico II; Alberto Battistelli, Stefano Moscatello and Simona Proietti from the Italian National Research Council; Daniel Schubert from the German AeroSpace Center; Cesare Lobascio and Giorgio Boscheri from Thales Alenia Space-Italy; and Gary Stutte of SyNRGE LLC.

SALVATORE SCIARRINO’S TI VEDO, TI SENTO, MI PERDO AT LA SCALA, NOVEMBER 24, 2017

Rome. The Baroque age at its height. A great hall in a great palace, swarming with quirky figures. There's a special electricity in the air: a cantata is going to be performed. The musicians (and most notably, a Cantatrice) are rehearsing; the men in charge (a Letterato and a Musico) are disputing; servants with funny names (Pasquozza, Chiappina, Solfetto, Finocchio, Minchiello) are trading fuzzy lines. Everybody is waiting for Alessandro Stradella, the star composer who has promised to bring a new aria for the upcoming concert. Ti vedo, ti sento, mi perdo—the first world première at La Scala since Giorgio Battistelli's CO2, which made its début back in 2015—is really centered on Alessandro Stradella. Little is known about his music (even if the Alessandro Stradella Baroque Festival of Viterbo and Nepi is trying to do something to change that for the better). Little is known about his life too. The legend seems to depict a mysterious combination of Don Giovanni (with more than a touch of Cherubino still in him), Caravaggio, and… Ziggy Stardust? Possibly. To Salvatore Sciarrino, he's both supernatural—and therefore invisible, à la Godot or l’Arlésienne—and perfectly real. He embodies art in general and music in particular, and this is what Ti vedo, ti sento, mi perdo is about: describing the very nature of music. (Describing and celebrating. It's an opera on opera that does express love for opera; in this respect, it's reminiscent of François Truffaut's La nuit américaine. [Or—if you prefer a 17th-century item—of Johannes Vermeer's The Art of Painting]. It also proclaims the unparalleled power of music, through a consistent set of images and myths: Orpheus and Eurydice, Ulysses and the Sirens, «L'isola delle voci»…).

In the universe of Ti vedo, ti sento, mi perdo, music comes with a number of interesting qualities. First, it's not a community thing; it's more of a strictly individual trip/escape into another dimension. More than anything else, it's an experience that involves your mind. In fact, it makes no difference whether you write, play, or merely listen to music. The chance to escape your ordinary existence—or the chance to fall victim to some inexplicable spell, if you want to say it that way—will be the same for everyone. (Sciarrino identifies with Stradella, and asks you to do the same). The opera as a whole displayed a philosophical vision with accuracy and coherence. The libretto (written by Sciarrino himself) came off as an elegant, concise, and imaginative narrative. Yet, despite his obvious interest in (and impressive talent for) words, Sciarrino the musician seemed to get somewhat less inspired when dealing with a sung text. Whereas the orchestra conducted by Maxime Pascal was often able to sound eerie, unknown, and to move on the edge of silence like a sensational dancer would, the singers were not. (There were Alessandro Stradella's original bits that Sciarrino interpolated here and there, but that's a different story). The production—created by Jürgen Flimm, with George Tsypin, Ursula Kudrna, and Olaf Freese as set/costume/light designer respectively—was rather stubborn in its refusal to try anything but conventional illustration. (It just provided the action with a flat, and positively predictable Alice's Adventures in Wonderland atmosphere. I suspect that the actual presence of the composer might take away from the director some of the freedom he/she [just like any other artist] desperately needs. Anyway, I think a work as rich and complex as Ti vedo, ti sento, mi perdo would have benefited from a more daring approach).

El expresidente de la Generalitat de Cataluña Carles Puigdemont acudió esta noche acompañado de su abogado, Paul Bekaert, a la Ópera de Flandes, en Gante, para asistir a la representación de la obra “El Duque de Alba”, de Gaetano Donizetti.

Puigdemont llegó caminando al teatro media hora antes del comienzo de la representación, y mantuvo una breve charla en el vestíbulo con su abogado y con los responsables de la Ópera de Flandes, ante las miradas de los asistentes.

Puigdemont y Bekaert se dirigieron después a sus asientos, en el palco de la primera planta del aforo, desde donde presenciaron la representación dirigida por el italiano Giorgio Battistelli.

Según relató el propio director artístico de la Ópera de Flandes, Aviel Cahn, la invitación a este evento buscaba lograr un punto de “reflexión”, después de que ya se hayan dado todas las opiniones políticas sobre el contencioso catalán.

La obra trata de la ocupación española de Flandes en el siglo XVI y la historia “es la lucha por la autonomía de los flamencos frente al Duque de Alba”, relató el director.

Cahn apuntó que el paralelismo con la situación actual es “evidente” y dijo que con la llegada de Puigdemont Bélgica “vuelve a ser escenario de un conflicto con raíces españolas”.

Carles Puigdemont y cuatro de sus exconsejeros cumplirán este jueves un mes de estancia en Bélgica, pendientes del próximo día 4 de diciembre, fecha en la que deberán comparecer ante la Cámara del Consejo, tribunal de primera instancia belga, después de que el pasado 17 de noviembre el juez decidiera posponer la vista.

El juez belga a cargo de la euroorden sobre los miembros del Gobierno de la Generalitat cesados para que sean extraditados a España pospuso hasta el próximo lunes la puesta en marcha del procedimiento judicial, tras escuchar las alegaciones de la defensa y la Fiscalía.

La nueva comparecencia judicial de Puigdemont y sus exconsejeros Antoni Comín (Salud), Clara Ponsatí (Enseñanza), Lluis Puig (Cultura) y Meritxell Serret (Agricultura) se celebrará un día antes del comienzo de la campaña de las próximas elecciones autonómicas catalanas del 21-D, y allí deberán hacer sus alegatos, que deben elaborarse por escrito.
