Automobili Lamborghini in Space: carbon fiber materials investigate on the International Space Station

Sant'Agata Bolognese/Houston, 04/11/2019 – On November 2, a Northrop Grumman Antares rocket propelled from Wallops Flight Facility in Virginia to the International Space Station (ISS), conveying with it a progression of test composite materials delivered via Automobili Lamborghini.

The dispatch is a piece of a testing effort supported by the ISS U.S. National Laboratory and supervised by the Houston Methodist Research Institute. The joint research on cutting edge carbon fiber composite materials was started two years prior between Automobili Lamborghini and the Houston Methodist Research Institute.

Its point is to examine the reaction of five distinctive composite materials created by Lamborghini to the outrageous burdens actuated by the space condition, in perspective on future applications on the vehicles from Sant'Agata Bolognese and in the medicinal field.

The joint research on cutting edge carbon fiber composite materials started two years back between Automobili Lamborghini and the Houston Methodist Research Institute has now arrived at a significant defining moment.

No sooner than November 2, a Northrop Grumman Antares rocket is planned to dispatch from Wallops Flight Facility in Virginia to the International Space Station (ISS), conveying with it a progression of test composite materials created via Automobili Lamborghini.

The dispatch is a piece of a testing effort supported by the ISS U.S. National Laboratory and managed by the Houston Methodist Research Institute.

Its point is to break down the reaction of five diverse composite materials delivered by Lamborghini to the extraordinary burdens instigated by the space condition, in perspective on future applications on the vehicles from Sant'Agata Bolognese and in the therapeutic field.

The strategic, which Lamborghini is giving its cooperation for nothing out of pocket, happens two years after the understanding marked by Stefano Domenicali, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Automobili Lamborghini, and Mauro Ferrari, at that point President and CEO of the exploration organization and now President of the European Research Council.

With this understanding, a joint research undertaking was started to examine the biocompatibility of the composite materials to decide their conceivable use in prosthetic inserts, yet additionally in subcutaneous gadgets, exploiting their specific properties of light weight, radio straightforwardness and radio similarity.

The dispatch to the ISS orbital station bears the three shades of the Italian banner: the Italian commitment is spoken to by Lamborghini as well as by Dr. Alessandro Grattoni, Chairman of the Department of Nanomedicine of the Houston Methodist Research Institute, and by space explorer Luca Parmitano who, on his second spell installed the ISS, has recently turned into its leader, a flat out first for Italy.

"We are glad," commented Stefano Domenicali. "Lamborghini is kicking things off as the principal automaker on the planet to direct carbon fiber materials science look into on the ISS. Notwithstanding speaking to a significant case of corporate social duty, this strategic likewise completely in accordance with our way of thinking and qualities. Lamborghini is a brand that has consistently been focused on going past points of confinement in each territory of its action and to being a pioneer in the domain of innovation."

NASA Television shares this inspiring production by Italian videomaker, Giacomo Sardelli, about the International Space Station, its inhabitants, and its role in space exploration.

Sardelli writes of the video, "I'm not the first one to use NASA's pictures taken from the International Space Station to craft a Timelapse video. You can find many of them on the Internet, that's where my inspiration came from. What I wanted to do, though, was to look beyond the intrinsic beauty of those pictures, and use them to tell a story and share the messages sent by the astronauts who worked on the station in the last 11 years."
