| 41. | Impacts by space objects such as meteoroids, micrometeorites and orbiting man-made debris, pose another design constraint on the cable.
|
| 42. | It's more likely that ancient ice deposits have been pummeled over the years by micrometeorites, mixing it into the lunar soil.
|
| 43. | But its calculations suggest that, if this happens, there is a 93 percent probability that a micrometeorite impact will be the cause.
|
| 44. | "They've had no basic problem with micrometeorites, but they've had problems with fires and crashes ."
|
| 45. | The module also lacks adequate external shielding for long term protection from impacts with micrometeorites and small bits of man-made space debris.
|
| 46. | Never mind that five astronauts were circling Earth aboard space shuttle Discovery, and that one of their windows was gouged by a micrometeorite.
|
| 47. | They have also been identified on grains found in meteorites, and on man-made objects exposed to the micrometeorite flux in space.
|
| 48. | They knew that interplanetary space is an active region of dust and gas, winds of charged solar particles, micrometeorites, asteroids and comets.
|
| 49. | This time he was able to grab hold of some wire bundles and retrieved the Micrometeorite Collector ( S-10 ) from the Agena.
|
| 50. | The surface of Umbriel is slightly blue in color, while fresh bright impact deposits ( in micrometeorites over the age of the Solar System.
