Re: Sterling Engine To be used to power spacecraft

when i worked at the JHU applied physics lab i was on this project for a while.and it was very interesting stuff...specifically what we were working on was changing the range of temp differential to find best efficiency within the conditions of space, for the application that they would be members through the wall of the space station. 1 side would be inside utilizing the inside temperature of the station while the other is outboard using the cold of space...i wasn't on the project very long but i have always had the suspicion that they would pop up in this application in the future.
