TL;DR: A comprehensive comparison of the different designs and technological solutions implemented in higher plant flight experiments is compiled to illustrate the development trends of controlled environment agriculture technologies in bio-regenerative life support systems, enabling future human long-duration missions into the solar system.

TL;DR: The In-FEEP thruster is a micro-propulsion device for the 1-100 μN thrust range with low thrust noise and high resolution as discussed by the authors, which is very important for many upcoming missions that require ultraprecise drag-free control such as the Gravity Field and Steady State Ocean Circulation Mission, LISA, Terrestrial Planet Finder/Darwin, or SMART-2.

TL;DR: The Macroscopic Quantum Resonators (MAQROI) project as mentioned in this paper proposes a mission to probe the quantum transition for increasingly massive objects, testing the predictions of quantum theory for objects in a size and mass regime unachievable in ground-based experiments.

TL;DR: Torkar, K., Nakamura, R., Tajmar, Martin; Scharlemann, C., Jeszensky, H., Laky, G., Fremuth, G.; Escoubet, C. P., Svenes, Knut Ragnar as mentioned in this paper.

TL;DR: The MAQRO mission as mentioned in this paper is a medium-size mission with a possible launch in 2025 with a main scientific goal to probe the quantum transition for increasingly massive objects, testing the predictions of quantum theory for truly macroscopic objects in a size and mass regime not achievable in ground-based experiments.
