DescriptionComet particle tracks in aerogel. of Stardust PIA02189.jpg |
English: Comet particle tracks in aerogel. of Stardust spacecraft. This image illustrates one of several ways scientists have begun extracting comet particles from the Stardust spacecraft's collector. First, a particle and its track are cut out of the collector material, called aerogel, in a wedge-shaped slice called a keystone. A specialized silicon pickle fork is then used to remove the keystone from the remaining aerogel for further analysis. |
