  • As the change of information and digital technology progresses, ubiquitous space is attracting attention as a new space concept in which the physical and digital spaces are connected to each other. As its meaning in latin itself - 'there exist everywhere at the same time'- implies, however, the ubiquitous space has been mostly discussed in a non-physical aspect, such as in a technological area, rather than its physical intrinsic property until now. Although theories regarding a ubiquitous city have been rarity suggested, in most cases, technological aspects such as the systemization or networking of individual information service have been the focus. However, one of the intentions induced in the concept that scholars including Mark weiser and Sakamura Ken introduced was to place humans in the center of the space in which the technology has been placed instead of humans. For this purpose, the renovation of human interface must be required. As technology develops, the achievement of ubiquitous space may be possible, and efforts to apply this to real space are making an appearance. The examples of the present research are the spaces that have a characteristic of the laboratory separated from life in the city, and the construct scale is in the level of an individual facility; therefore, further studies should functionally and spaciously connect all subjects existing in space and effectively relate this to real world. The present research is intended to demonstrate the investigation on several projects that are currently underway and the developmental direction of new, ubiquitous space.

  • Bow shock, formed by the interaction between the solar wind and a planet, is generated in different patterns depending on the conditions of the planet. In the case of the earth, its own strong magnetic field plays a critical role in determining the position of the bow shock. However, in the case of Mars of which has very a small intrinsic magnetic field, the bow shock is formed by the direct interaction between the solar wind and the Martian ionosphere. It is known that the position of the Martian bow shock is affected by the mass loading-effect by which the supersonic solar wind velocity becomes subsonic as the heavy ions originating from the planet are loaded on the solar wind. We simulated the Martian magnetosphere depending on the changes of the density and velocity of the solar wind by using the three-dimensional magnetohydrodynamic model built by modifying the comet code that includes the mass loading effect. The Martian exosphere model of was employed as the Martian atmosphere model, and only the photoionization by the solar radiation was considered in the ionization process of the neutral atmosphere. In the simulation result under the normal solar wind conditions, the Martian bow shock position in the subsolar point direction was consistent with the result of the previous studies. The three-dimensional simulation results produced by varying the solar wind density and velocity were all included in the range of the Martian bow shock position observed by Mariner 4, Mars 2, 3, 5, and Phobos 2. Additionally, the simulation result also showed that the change of the solar wind density had a greater effect on the Martian bow shock position than the change of the solar wind velocity. Our result may be useful in analyzing the future observation data by Martian probes.

  • Vacuum is any air or gas pressure less than a prevailing pressure in an environmental or, specifically, any pressure lower than the atmospheric pressure and is used by a wide variety of scientists and engineering - including clean environment, thermal insulation, very long mean free path, plasma, space simulation[1]. The space environment is characterized by such a severe condition as high vacuum, and very low and high temperature. Since a satellite will be exposed to such a space environment as soon as it goes into its orbit, space environmental test should be carried out to verify the performance of the satellite on the ground under the space environmental conditions. A general and widely used method to simulate the space environment is using a thermal vacuum chamber which consists of vacuum vessel and thermally controlled shroud. As indicated by name of vacuum chamber, the vacuum technology is applied to design and manufacture of the thermal vacuum chamber. This paper describe the vacuum technology which is applied to space business.

  • Regardless of the size, the role and meaning of the space required for human daily life are the same. Especially, as the spatial design is small and the size is small, the careful design and problem solving are needed to enable comfortable and convenient life even in a narrow space. The purpose of this study is to design a convergence model that utilizes the advantages of BIM, which can simulate actual design based on a new one-person housing space design plan optimized for one person. This study applied the BIM design technology to one-person housing 2D design, and the suitability examination and the space optimization design of the interior design were carried out. As a result of the study, utility of space improvement, consideration of housing environment, interference check, application of eco-friendly housing system, and MEP design item were derived. Therefore, BIM space design in interior space has been confirmed as a way to overcome limit and inefficiency of 2D design which is applied to actual space by various space design elements. Based on the results of this study, the One-person housing space model, which is applied to the study, is a pure creation designed based on various one-person housing of social and cultural peculiarities derived from previous research. This design example was applied to BIM technology to confirm the detailed and practical design possibility.

  • The mass spectrometer, being an essential scientific instrument for uncovering the origin of the solar system and life, has been used since the early 1970s on board spacecraft to obtain information of neutral and ionized elements in the atmosphere and surface of the moon, planets, asteroids, and comets. According to the 4th Basic Plan for the Promotion of Space Development (2023-2027), Korea plans to conduct lunar landing in 2032 and Mars landing in 2045 as the core goals of the plan and focuses on developing the technologies required for unmanned robotic exploration missions. In this regard, it is crucial to develop the technology of a mass spectrometer, which is the most fundamental payload for space exploration for maximized scientific achievements, however never tried before in any domestic space missions. We describe in this paper the principle of a domestically developed quadrupole mass spectrometer, its prototype model, and the test results of its performance. We conclude this paper with intended future improvements.
