  • NASA has been funding projects which seem far from reality, but if completed can take mankind's achievements in space to new heights.
  • These 'ambitious' projects include a fluid-based telescope, a transit system to transfer humans and cargo to Mars and a lunar railway system.
  • These projects are still in the exploratory stage and there is no guarantee of success.
  • The FLUTE project gives a potential solution for creating space observatories which have a large aperture or unsegmented liquid primary mirrors.
  • Such liquid primary mirrors get formed in space with the use of fluidic shaping in microgravity.
