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 the future, flux and/or future:
“The difference between Pound and Whitman is not between the democrat who in deep distress could look hopefully toward the future and the fascist madly in love with the past. It is that between the woodsman and the woodcarver. It is that between the mystic harking back to his vision and the artist whose first allegiance is to his craft, and so to the reality it presents.”
—Babette Deutsch (1895–1982)
“Beauty is our weapon against nature; by it we make objects, giving them limit, symmetry, proportion. Beauty halts and freezes the melting flux of nature.”
—Camille Paglia (b. 1947)
“For the wrong that needs resistance,
For the future in the distance,
And the good that I can do.”
—George Linnaeus Banks (1821–1881)
