Spacecraft Makers: Simulating Space to Test Europa Clipper

In this video, see how the team at NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory tests whether NASA’s Europa Clipper spacecraft will work properly in outer space during its upcoming 1.6 billion-mile, six-year journey to explore Jupiter’s icy moon Europa for conditions suitable for life.

Engineering cellular scaffolding to advance nanotechnologies

By channeling a living cell’s machinery, Princeton researchers are developing a system to control the growth of microtubules. They call this robust nanotechnology platform, “cytoskeletal circuits,” with potential applications in soft robotics and new medicines.
