NASA to develop in-orbit refueling tech
NASA aims to develop a new technology that will enable spacecraft to refuel in Earth's orbit instead of carrying their full fuel load from the surface. This approach seeks to reduce costs and improve the efficiency of crewed and uncrewed missions to Mars and the Solar System. The technology relies on a device known as a supercooling connector, which links the two spacecraft in orbit and allows for the safe and highly efficient transfer of cryogenic fuels such as hydrogen and oxygen. Tests have demonstrated its effectiveness in environments similar to space.
