... Concept Spacecraft . ... The proposed lentiular design concept for the Apollo spacecraft was one of several unorthodox designs rejected in favour of the more familiar conical shape which was lighter and less complex.The lenticular design was a ?road not taken?, losing out to less challenging configurations.It is strange to think that if history had proceeded differently, each Apollo crew could have ended their lunar mission by gliding to a touchdown on a runway at Edwards AFB in a flying saucer! ...

. NASA's Kepler spacecraft, launched in March 2009, is designed to discover Earth-like planets orbiting other stars. In the process it is capturing large quantities of data on the target stars which is used not only to search for planets but also to study stars in general. The results from NASA's Kepler spacecraft provide us with new information on a number of specific phenomena related to our fundamental knowledge of stars, their internal properties and evolution in time.
