TL;DR: The Origins Space Telescope as mentioned in this paper was designed to trace the history of our origins from the time dust and heavy elements permanently altered the cosmic landscape to present-day life, and it was the first telescope to operate at mid-and far-infrared (IR) wavelengths.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Thermoacoustic power systems for space applications
TL;DR: In this paper, the first tests of a demonstration thermoacoustic engine designed for the 100-Watt power range were presented on the first testbed for the first time.
