Working on LGarde history based on submitted research papers to DoD via various online libraries. Some resources are offline during the Shutdown - but I have managed to locate about 5 studies that were published on "rigidized" inflatable structures. This tech is the basis of the Sunjammer - which will lead to 'very large inflatables' in the very near future. Ray Wyman Jr (talk) 12:28, 10 October 2013 (UTC)Reply
- Made big progress on my little 'solar sail' project. I found quite a few articles written by Lgarde engineers about progress on various technological fronts that have made this and other space flight efforts possible. Not many of these papers are actually available online - but the AIAA and other organizations have them indexed in their annual compendiums. I count more than 60 such papers; found 10 of them that seem quite interesting for students of what I believe is a growing/expanding field. Ray Wyman Jr (talk) 00:21, 28 December 2013 (UTC)Reply
- Completed first round additions to give this page more substance. Looking for more data/research on solar sails by this company (and others). My experience with this article leads me to believe that enough research is ongoing to warrant a new page in inflatable space structures (Tg rigidizable). May also expand Inflatable Antenna Experiment with new data that I found. Ray Wyman Jr (talk) 19:31, 31 December 2013 (UTC)Reply
