37、e University is working towards making this a reality with its SunCube FemtoSat project. Smaller than a standard CubeSat, the low-cast student-designed spacecraft is aimed at providing greater access to space for scientists and hobbyists alike. Assistant professor Jekan Thanga and a team of students
38、 have been developing the SunCube FemtoSat for the past two years. The small 333cm cube weighs in at just 35g and a longer (339cm, 100g) model has also been designed, which includes storage space. Each SunCube FemtoSat has its own communication, data collection and propulsion (推进) systems and is pow
39、ered by solar panels. It is made of off-the- shelf parts that are available in shops, and the energy-efficient solar panels are cut from scrap (碎片), which makes it save energy, sold at a discount by manufacturers. “With a spacecraft of this size, any university can do it,” says Thanga. “That s part
40、of our major goalspace discovery for everybody.” The team says that while launching your own satellite would usually cost between US $60,000-70,000 per kilo, it would only cost $1,000 to send a SunCube FemtoSat to the International Space Station, and $3,000 to send it into low earth orbit. Leaving t
41、he earth s gravity would cost an estimated $27,000. The FemtoSat would be packed with a “jack in the box” style system that matches standard CubeSat sizes (around 10 cubic cm), simplifying the process of getting the tiny satellite into orbit. NASA has sent 30 CubeSats into space over the last few ye
42、ars, with another 50 awaiting launch. Thanga and his staff view the FemtoSat as a starting point for scientists and students, and even hope the device could be bought on the website like A m a z o n one day. Thanga imagines developing four main applications for the device, including hands-on testing
43、 experiences for students, and artificial gravity experiments. In addition, groups of SunCube FemtoSats could eventually be able to do the job of larger spacecraft at a vastly discounted cost. 32. What is the major goal of the SunCube FemtoSat project? A.To act on teaching in outer space. B.To provi
44、de access to spacecraft design. C.To help average individuals explore space. D.To help carry out a classroom experiment. 33. What is special about SunCube FemtoSats? A.They are energy-efficient.
