The Whipple shield or Whipple bumper, invented by Fred Whipple, [1] is a type of spaced armor shielding to protect crewed and uncrewed spacecraft from hypervelocity impact / collisions with micrometeoroids and orbital debris whose velocities generally range between 3 and 18 kilometres per second (1.9 and 11.2 mi/s).
The MEarth Project (pronounced mirth [1]) is a United States NSF-funded [2] robotic exoplanet observatory that is part of the Fred Lawrence Whipple Observatory on Mount Hopkins. The project monitors the brightness of thousands of red dwarf stars with the goal of finding transiting planets. As red dwarf stars are small, any transiting planet ...
