Propellant Slosh Force and Mass Measurement by Andrew Hunt, Richard Foster-Turner, Ross Drury

“…Fully instrumented Smart Tanks will be able to provide force vector inputs to a spacecraft inertial navigation system; this in turn will (i) eliminate or reduce navigational errors, (ii) reduce wait time for uncertain slosh settling, since actual slosh forces will be known, and (iii) simplify slosh control hardware, hence reducing overall mass. …”

The Worm and the Ecologist: Experiencing Planetarity with Frank Herbert’s Dune by Pierre-Louis Patoine

“…This article explores how Frank Herbert’s 1965 novel Dune offers occasions for the development of an ecological, Gaian sensitivity, pushing the human sensorium towards the planetary (in relation to, and contradistinction to, the global, colonial, and imperial imaginaries) by using tools typical of fantasy and science fiction, such as world-building, immersion, sensationalism, terrain navigation, non-modern epistemologies, oneiric possession, geological actants, dragon-like giant sandworms, and human-eating birds. …”
