Problem of the Day:
In class today we will look at arguably the most expensive radiation shield ever made: the tennis court sized
multilayer radiation shield for the Webb space telescope, and examine why it has its rather peculiar looking design. A description of the sunshield is provided here. A brief analysis of why it is designed the way it is is provided here.
Demonstration:
Our first student demonstration: evaporative effects in the presence of convection.
