Space Cold Chain: From Ground to the International Space Station and Back

Johnson Space Center uses a specialized Cold Box (Space Cooler) to keep items cool for delivery to and from the International Space Station. The Space Cooler is constructed out of several vacuum panels with aerogel cores. These panels are designed and constructed into a box shape for cold stowage purposes. The Space Cooler is optionally packed with cold bricks (phase-change material) as shown in the figure. This Space Cooler needs to perform without active refrigeration (passive only).

The GeoGLOWS Project: Essential Water Variables and Observations – Expected Value Chain, Products, Examples

Essential Water Variables (EWV) were developed over the last decade to ensure that key datasets were made available for closing the global water budget, and addressing the many international actions that require water data. Satellite, surface, and numerical model data all have a role in providing EWVs, and it is a key point that these data must be merged and then fed into decision support applications to answer all the needs of the panoply of user communities. The more specialized the applications become, the higher the demand for development and maintenance resources. Some examples of applications include the NASA Goddard Giovanni, which provides on-line data access and simple analysis; the Global Flood Monitor, which focuses on precipitation-driven flooding; the NASA Landslide Hazard Assessment for Situational Awareness, which similarly treats landslides; and the Global Streamflow Forecasting Project, which provides multiple decision support interfaces, as well as a general toolkit for building new interfaces.
