Space Stations The Astronauts Work
1,372 wordsMy report is on the human body in space. There are many things that come into planning a space launch. For example, the astronauts that venture into space are affected by the complete lack of gravity. Now to me and you this seems like fun but to the people who spend large amounts of time in space or even the people who easily become motion sick, this is a terrible way to live for weeks at a time. You see when you turn off gravity completely your mind cannot determine which way is down. If your m...

Data From Stations
1,013 wordsReason for design Data transfer over cable is a very important aspect of today's communication devices. Most cables used for data transfer in 1997 were used only for television purposes, and the direction of data flow was downstream, or from the head-end to the station. If this setup could be altered, then cables could also be used to receive data from stations, or upstream flow. In order for data to be transferable (able to go upstream as well as downstream), the cable must be upgraded to a com...
