Why NASA Is Making Air Explode Using Electricity - The Electric Arc Shock Tunnel
The Electric Arc Shock Tunnel (EAST) at NASA Ames can generate hypervelocity shockwaves in test atmospheres to understand what happens during atmospheric entry. This system uses a capacitor bank that stored up to 1.25MegaJoules to drive a shockwave in a test gas then observe the light emitted. This is essential to determining the radiative ...
