Aérozine 50
Ce contenu est une compilation d'articles de l'encyclopédie libre Wikipedia. L'Aérozine 50 est un carburant stockable développé aux États-Unis dans les années 1950 pour les missiles ballistiques intercontinentaux Titan II, à la suite de quoi il a été utilisé dans les lanceurs dérivés de ces missiles. C'est un mélange composé de 50% d'hydrazine et de 50% de diméthylhydrazine asymétrique. Il est hypergolique avec le peroxyde d'azote, offrant le meilleur compromis entre la stabilité de l'UDMH et la densité plus élevée de l'hydrazine. Contrairement aux propergols cryogéniques, les propergols de type NTO / aérozine 50 peuvent être stockés sans difficulté dans les engins spatiaux pendant plusieurs semaines, la limite venant de la corrosion induite par le peroxyde d'azote et non pas de l'aérozine 50.

Wolf 359
Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Wolf 359 is a red dwarf star that is located in the constellation Leo, near the ecliptic. At a distance of approximately 7.8 light years from the Earth, it has an apparent magnitude of 13.5 and can only be seen with a large telescope. Wolf 359 is one of the nearest stars to the solar system; only the Alpha Centauri system, Proxima Centauri, and Barnard's star are known to be closer. Wolf 359 is one of the faintest and lowest-mass stars known. The photosphere of the star has a temperature of about 2,800 K, which is low enough for chemical compounds to form and survive. The absorption lines of compounds such as water and titanium(II) oxide have been observed. The surface has a magnetic field that is stronger than the average magnetic field on the Sun. As a result of magnetic activity, Wolf 359 is a flare star that can undergo sudden increases in luminosity for several minutes. These flares emit strong bursts of X-ray and gamma ray radiation that have been observed by space telescopes.

Atmosphere of Titan
Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. The atmosphere of Titan is known as the only fully developed atmosphere that exists on a natural satellite in our solar system. The presence of a significant atmosphere was first suspected by Spanish astronomer Josep Comas Solà, who observed distinct limb darkening on Titan in 1903, and confirmed by Gerard P. Kuiper in 1944 using a spectroscopic technique that yielded an estimate of an atmospheric partial pressure of methane of the order of 100 millibars.

Cantilever mechanics (orthodontics)
Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. A cantilever is, in principle, any piece of wire, whose end is inserted, on one side, into a bracket or a tube, or included in the acrylic of a removable appliance, while the other one is tied to another unit, with only a one-point contact. When using the cantilever, the orthodontist can easily estimate the force system on both units, just measuring the length of the appliance and its force by means of a dynamometer -in the direction of its activation- and thereby predict the clinical result.

Forging Temperature
Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Forging temperature is a temperature at which a metal becomes soft like clay or its shape can be changed by applying a relatively small force without creating cracks in metal. Note: Temperatures for alloys (combination of metals) will lie between the temperatures specified for the metals utilised.

Nereid (Moon)
Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Nereid (pronounced /¿n¿¿ri.¿d/; also /¿n¿ri.¿d/, as in Greek ¿¿¿¿¿¿¿), also known as Neptune II, is the third-largest moon of Neptune. It has a highly eccentric orbit. Nereid was discovered by Gerard P. Kuiper in 1949. Nereid was discovered on May 1, 1949 by Gerard P. Kuiper, on photographic plates taken with the 82 inch telescope at the McDonald Observatory. He proposed the name in the report of his discovery. It is named after the Nereids, sea-nymphs of Greek mythology and attendants of the god Neptune. It was the last moon of Neptune to be discovered before the arrival of Voyager 2.

Christiaan Huygens
Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online.Christiaan Huygens, FRS was a prominent Dutch mathematician, astronomer, physicist, horologist, and writer of early science fiction. His work included early telescopic studies elucidating the nature of the rings of Saturn and the discovery of its moon Titan, the invention of the pendulum clock and other investigations in timekeeping, and studies of both optics and the centrifugal force. Huygens achieved note for his argument that light consists of waves, now known as the Huygens-Fresnel principle, which became instrumental in the understanding of wave-particle duality. He generally receives credit for his discovery of the centrifugal force, the laws for collision of bodies, for his role in the development of modern calculus and his original observations on sound perception (see repetition pitch). Huygens is seen as the first theoretical physicist as he was the first to use formulae in physics.

Shape Memory Alloy
Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. A shape memory alloy (SMA, smart metal, memory metal, memory alloy, muscle wire, smart alloy) is an alloy that "remembers" its original, cold, forged shape, and which returns to that shape after being deformed by applying heat. This material is a lightweight, solid-state alternative to conventional actuators such as hydraulic, pneumatic, and motor-based systems. Shape memory alloys have applications in industries including medical and aerospace. The three main types of shape memory alloys are the copper-zinc-aluminum-nickel, copper-aluminium-nickel, and nickel-titanium (NiTi) alloys but SMA's can also be created by alloying zinc, copper, gold, and iron. NiTi alloys are generally more expensive and change from austenite to martensite upon cooling; Mf is the temperature at which the transition to Martensite is finished during cooling.

Xanadu (Titan)
Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Xanadu (often called "Xanadu Regio", though this is not its official name) is a highly reflective area on the leading hemisphere of Saturn's moon Titan. Its name comes from Xanadu, the legendary palace described in Samuel Taylor Coleridge's poem Kubla Khan. The feature was first identified in 1994 by astronomers using the Hubble Space Telescope at infrared wavelengths, and has recently been imaged in more detail by the Cassini space probe. Xanadu is about the size of Australia. Preliminary observations indicate that Xanadu is a plateau-like region of highly reflective water ice, contrasting somewhat with the darker lower regions. These in turn seem to contrast quite sharply with the very dark maria, which were once believed to be seas of liquid hydrocarbons, but are now thought to be plains.

Enceladus (Moon)
Enceladus is the sixth-largest moon of Saturn. It was discovered in 1789 by William Herschel. Until the two Voyager spacecraft passed near it in the early 1980s, very little was known about this small moon besides the identification of water ice on its surface. The Voyagers showed that the diameter of Enceladus is only 500 km, about a tenth of that of Saturn's largest moon, Titan, and reflects almost 100% of the sunlight that strikes it. Voyager 1 found that Enceladus orbited in the densest part of Saturn's diffuse E ring, indicating a possible association between the two, while Voyager 2 revealed that despite the moon's small size, it had a wide range of terrains ranging from old, heavily cratered surfaces to young, tectonically deformed terrain, with some regions with surface ages as young as 100 million years old. In 2005, the Cassini spacecraft began to acquire additional data on Enceladus, answering a number of the mysteries opened by the Voyager spacecraft and starting a few new ones.
