Transmission and reception of data, and frequencies and bandwidth considerations in Space Communications.

Space Communications and the related problems and developments. Animation: Additional factors introduces into Space Communications by transmission and reception of data. Frequencies and bandwidths applicable to Space Communications. Factors to be weighed while considering bandwidth: Available power and transmission system required. Narrower bandwidths used to conserve power, they're also less affected by noise interference. Depicts consumption of power by television, spoken word and teletype bandwidths. Telemetry: low bandwidth and power consumption. Explains Telemetry. Theory of Modern Communication and Binary digits or BITS. Depicts information required from outer space like: radio activity level of the moon's surface, abundance of water vapor in the Martian atmosphere, and variation in surface temperature of Mercury. Telemetry utilizes relatively small bandwidth and thus used as preferable mode of communication for research vehicles.

Electromagnetic Hazards Group staff talk about ball lightning tests to determine structural integrity of composite materials.

Electromagnetic Hazards Group conducts ball lightning tests under Project Tesla, inside a hangar at Wendover Air Force Base in Utah. An interviewer gets information from the scientists. A team member talks about modern aircraft, new material and avionics system susceptible to lightning. He states that the composite materials used in new aircraft are stronger and don't conduct electricity like conventional metals. The team's research work involves protective measures and verification of the same. He discusses the effect of lightning on aircraft electronics, and the use of Wendover as the research facility due to its reproduction of long arcs. The aim is to study the effects of atmospheric electricity on new materials and electronics systems in modern aircraft. Robert Golka talks about a new company to study and create ball lightning, and apply it to nuclear fusion research.
