During my engineering days, I always believed that the space industry was all about aerospace, mechanical, and electrical engineering, and that civil engineering had little to do with it. 🛠️ But today, I am beyond excited to witness the power of civil engineering—specifically the structural engineering branch I studied—coming into play and creating wonders in the space industry! 🌍🛰️ I can vividly recall those structural engineering classes, and now, I see them connected to this historic event. It’s truly a marvel of engineering: two tiny robotic arms catching a massive 100x tons object in space, mid-flight! 🦾💫 What a time to be alive! 🙌 #EngineeringMarvel #SpaceInnovation #StructuralEngineering #CivilEngineering #ProudEngineer #Space

I’ve been thinking about how to enhance the thermal protection spacecraft during reentry. Imagine if they wrapped the leading edge of the winglets with a layer of W-10Ta (tungsten with 10% tantalum) over the heat tiles or in the hot spots. This material has a super high melting point and great durability, making it a robust thermal barrier. Wrapping it continuously would ensure no weak points where heat could sneak through. On top of that, what if they added vortex generators made of the same W-10Ta material? These little aerodynamic surfaces would help manage the airflow around the spacecraft, reducing the heat load and improving overall aerodynamic efficiency. It’s a bit challenging because it would add weight and cost, and the manufacturing process would be complex. But with detailed engineering, advanced manufacturing, and thorough testing, these ideas could seriously boost the spacecraft’s performance and reusability.

UNIQUE TECHNOLOGY OF COLD WELDING IN SPACE. Cold welding of metals in the vacuum of space presents some unique and strange characteristics that differ significantly from welding on Earth. In the vacuum of space, metals can bond together without the application of heat, due to the absence of an oxide layer that normally forms on metal surfaces in Earth's atmosphere. This phenomenon occurs because, in space, clean metal surfaces come into contact with each other and their atoms bond directly, effectively causing them to fuse. Unlike traditional welding processes that require heat or pressure, cold welding in space happens at the atomic level without any external energy input. This process can happen unexpectedly, posing potential challenges for spacecraft and satellite components that may unintentionally weld together when they come into contact. Cold welding is more likely to occur between metals that are similar in composition, as their atomic structures align more easily. The lack of atmosphere in space means there are no gases or contaminants to prevent the metals from bonding, which is why this effect is unique to the vacuum environment. Although cold welding is a naturally occurring process in space, engineers must carefully consider this phenomenon when designing space missions to avoid unintended consequences. The occurrence of cold welding can lead to malfunctions in mechanical systems, such as moving parts in satellites or docking mechanisms, if not properly managed. Interestingly, cold welding was first observed during early space missions, which led to increased awareness and research into its effects. Despite its challenges, cold welding also has potential benefits for space construction, as it could be harnessed for creating strong, permanent bonds between metal components without the need for traditional welding techniques. This phenomenon highlights the strange and sometimes counterintuitive nature of physics in space, where the absence of gravity and atmosphere leads to entirely different interactions between materials. Cold welding demonstrates the need for specialized knowledge and engineering solutions when working in the unique environment of outer space.

Considering the harsh conditions of space—vacuum, temperature fluctuations, and radiation—it's natural for an engineer with a mechanical engineering background like me to assume that satellites should be made of metal. However, this research takes a different approach. Instead of accepting conventional wisdom without question, it seeks to overcome challenges with flexible thinking, which is truly inspiring. While wooden components are still used only in certain parts, I am looking forward to the test results of this wooden satellite in the harsh space environment. #spaceindustry #innovation #spacedebris #engineering
