[求助] 求大神们拯救一下小弟吧

In 1999 the Stardust Mission spacecraft was launched from
the Kennedy Space Center, beginning a five year journey to
rendezvous with the comet Wild2 to collect particles from
the comet in a grid of aerogel blocks [1, 2]. The mission
design was based on the fact that aerogel is capable of
stopping hypervelocity particles while keeping the particles
largely intact [3]. This capability is based on the extremely
porous nature of aerogels. Their porosity is due to the fact
that the material is composed of myriad nano-scale filaments
bonded in random orientations. As hypervelocity
particles travel through the aerogel network, they destroy
the filaments that constitute the network. In doing so, they
convert their kinetic energy to thermal and mechanical
energy and eventually stop [4, 5]. Numerous impact tests in
light gas gun facilities were used to establish this capability
and to quantify the results [3, 6, 7].
For the Stardust Mission, two grids of aerogel blocks
were assembled: one for capturing particles from the
comet during the comet encounter and another for capturing
interstellar grains during the cruise phase of the
mission while traveling to the comet. The two grids were
mounted back-to-back and each of the grids held 132
blocks of aerogel that had been specially developed and
produced for this mission. During the cruise phase, the
grids were deployed for extended periods of time such
that the aerogel for capturing the interstellar grains was
facing the direction of the interstellar stream. After each
of the interstellar grain collection periods, the grids were
stowed in the sample return capsule. As the comet
encounter approached, the grids were redeployed and the
spacecraft was oriented such that the aerogel for capturing
the cometary particles was facing the incoming stream of
cometary particles.
