Making History: NASA and SpaceX Completed Historic Launch Successfully. As a Trusted Supplier, MSE Supplies - We Enable Innovations

Posted by MSE Supplies Admin on

May 30, 2020 A Falcon 9 rocket built by SpaceX was successfully launched by NASA  at 3:22 p.m. eastern time on May 30, 2020 in Florida from the same Kennedy Space Center launch pad used to send Apollo crews to the moon a half-century ago.  This historic launch marks a new era in using a commercially built spacecraft and puts the United States back in the business of launching astronauts into orbit from U.S. soil for the first time in nearly a decade. The SpaceX Crew Dragon spacecraft carried by a Falcon 9 rocket is headed to the International Space Station on...

What Governs Crystal Growth? Scientists Have Revealed a Fundamental Phenomenon

Posted by MSE Supplies Admin on

Researchers at the University of Illinois at Chicago have used computer-based simulations to discover the general mechanism that governs crystal growth in materials – fluctuations in the solvent shield.  The solvent shield is a molecular shell comprised of solvent molecules that coalesce around a crystalline material when said material is immersed within a solvent.  Fluctuations in this shield allow molecules to break free and incorporate themselves into the crystal's surface in order to grow the overall structure, molecule by molecule.  The temperature, the solvent type, and the number of solvent molecules are all controllable variables that determine these shell fluctuations. ...
