Flux Pinning in The Future
Many studies have shown that flux pinning is capable of assembling items and also being able to dock different things together. Flux pinning and its ability to be applied to joints of telescopes could offer up an alternative to building telescopes and satellites and could save money. Throughout the efforts of 21 teams selected to participate in NASA’s FAST program (Facilitated Access to the Space Environment for Technology Development and Training) and with their successful experiments this future seems not too far away.

Famous quotes containing the words flux and/or future:
“No civilization ... would ever have been possible without a framework of stability, to provide the wherein for the flux of change. Foremost among the stabilizing factors, more enduring than customs, manners and traditions, are the legal systems that regulate our life in the world and our daily affairs with each other.”
—Hannah Arendt (1906–1975)
“One day my mother called me ... and she said, “Forty-nine million Americans saw you on television tonight. One of them is the father of my future grandchild, but he’s never going to call you because you wore your glasses.””
—Lesley Stahl (b. 1941)
