Incredible Technology

[ProtossProbe]

收集航天、太空上的一些新点子，偏向工程多一点，主要在space.com上找，看到好的点子就搬运过来。

1. http://www.space.com/28846-spiderfab-space-structures-incredible-technology.html 使用 Spiderlike Robots 在太空中建造大型结构的新技术，可以考虑用在大型空间站的建造上。
2. http://www.space.com/28996-zero-gravity-cocktail-glass-tech.html 这个太有意思了，在太空失重环境下喝水用的杯子，使用了水表面张力的性质，3D 打印技术制造。
3. http://www.space.com/28999-nasa-deep-space-tech-grants.html NASA 支持的 12 项新技术，主要包括电推进、人类居住站、微小卫星三个方面。受到资助的公司有这些：（可以考虑加入设定什么的→_→） Bigelow Aerospace of North Las Vegas, Nevada The Boeing Company of Pasadena, Texas Dynetics, Inc. of Huntsville, Alabama Hamilton Sundstrand Space Systems International of Windsor Locks, Connecticut Lockheed Martin Space Systems Company of Denver, Colorado Orbital ATK of Dulles, Virginia Orbital Technologies Corporation of Madison, Wisconsin

利用太阳风带电粒子的电场力可以作为推进，另外当飞到某个行星/卫星大气层的时候，可以用其产生的电场力来减速。

长这样，一堆电线往外成个网：

http://www.space.com/29359-squid-rover-nasa-niac-space-tech.html NASA 资助的 14 种未来新技术，包括 ：

1. Squid Rover 用于欧罗巴的探索；
2. 使用集中的太阳光采集小行星上水的方案；
3. 风力机器人用于探索木星和土星（能源为气态行星的磁场和强风）；
4. 用于探索月球永阴陨石坑的水和挥发物的小型机器人；
