Tricky Fuel Cell Neat Efficient Does It Work
Cape Kennedy reports on a spaceflight fuel cell system powering the Gemini craft. Oxygen and hydrogen react to produce water and electricity, but maintaining storage at ultra low temperatures caused insulation and wiring issues. A power surge during a storm damaged the oxygen heater, delaying power generation and prompting hydrogen management challenges.
