Accelerator R&D and experiments at the lab—and lab scientists’ participation in experiments at other...

After failing several times in its attempt to develop a cryogenic engine, India’s space agency—ISRO—persisted and succeeded in using the engine to launch India's second lunar mission, Chandrayaan-2, to lunar orbit.

Celebrity hairstylist Savio John Perreira is using cryogenics to treat hair at his Mumbai salon with the Cryo Detox hair treatment by Kerasol. The process includes a step where liquid nitrogen is sprayed on the hair strands. What could go wrong?

107 scientists, researchers and students attended CSA’s 28th Space Cryogenics Workshop held July 18 at the Heritage Hotel and Conference Center in Southbury CT. Attendees had the opportunity to share ideas in the form of back-to-back oral presentations with poster session breaks. The first day began with lectures on upcoming...
