| Dome A Dome A or Dome Argus () is an Antarctican plateau located 1200 kilometres inland. It is thought to be one of the coldest naturally occurring places on Earth, with temperatures believed to reach -90 °C. It is the highest ice feature in Antarctica, comprising a dome or eminence of 4,093 meters elevation above sea level. It is located near the center of East Antarctica, and approximately midway between the head of Lambert Glacier and the South Pole. Dome_A | |

| Friction stir welding Friction-stir welding (FSW) is a solid-state joining process (meaning the metal is not melted during the process) and is used for applications where the original metal characteristics must remain unchanged as far as possible. This process is primarily used on aluminum, and most often on large pieces which cannot be easily heat treated post weld to recover temper characteristics. The Welding Institute UK in December 1991. TWI holds a number of patents on the process, the first being the most descriptive. Friction_stir_welding | |

| Strain 121 Strain 121 is a single-celled microbe, of the domain Archaea. First discovered off Puget Sound in a hydrothermal vent, it is a hyperthermophile, able to survive and reproduce at (hence its name). It is the only known form of life that can tolerate such incredibly high temperatures. is proven to be only bacteriostatic for Strain 121, meaning that although growth is halted, the archaeum remains viable, and can resume reproducing once it has been transferred to a cooler medium.

| Atomic battery atomic battery, nuclear battery, tritium battery and radioisotope battery are used to describe a device which uses the emissions from a radioactive isotope to generate electricity. They differ from nuclear reactors in that they do not use a chain reaction. They have extremely long life and high energy density. They are mainly used as power sources for equipment that must operate unattended for long periods of time, such as spacecraft and automated scientific stations in remote parts of the world.

| Click chemistry Click chemistry is a chemical philosophy introduced by K. Barry Sharpless in 2001 and describes chemistry tailored to generate substances quickly and reliably by joining small units together. This is inspired by the fact that nature also generates substances by joining small modular units.One of the most popular reactions within the click chemistry philosophy is the azide alkyne Huisgen cycloaddition using a Cu catalyst at room temperature discovered concurrently and independently by the groups of K.

| Oscillococcinum Oscillococcinum (commonly shortened to Oscillo) is a homeopathic alternative medicine marketed to relieve influenza-like symptoms. It is one of the most popular homeopathic preparations, particularly in France. The name Oscillococcinum is owned by a French company, Boiron, its sole manufacturer. There are, however, other manufacturers who make similar preparations. This homeopathic product is now used in more than 50 countries worldwide. In France, it has been in production for over 65 years. Oscillococcinum | |

| Earthquake engineering Earthquake engineering is the study of the behavior of buildings and structures subject to seismic loading. It is a subset of both structural and civil engineering. Eminent authority on seismic risk mitigation, Caltech professor George W. Housner is widely considered as the 'father' of the modern field of earthquake engineering. Stanford University professor John Blume’s contributions to the dynamics of structures have earned him the title of the 'father' of earthquake engineering too. Earthquake_engineering | |

| Bahá'í Faith and science A fundamental principle of the Bahá'í Faith is the harmony of religion and science. Bahá'í scripture asserts that true science and true religion can never be in conflict. `Abdu'l-Bahá, the son of the founder of the religion, stated that religion without science is superstition and that science without religion is materialism. He also admonished that true religion must conform to the conclusions of science. Bahá'í_Faith_and_science | |
| Reconfigurable Manufacturing System A reconfigurable manufacturing system (RMS) is one designed at the outset for rapid change in its structure, as well as its hardware and software components, in order to quickly adjust its production capacity and functionality within a part family in response to sudden market changes or intrinsic system change .A schematic diagram of a RMS is shown below (Artist Rod Hill). Exactly the capacity and functionality needed, exactly when needed. Reconfigurable_Manufacturing_System | |
| Blue ice runway A blue ice runway is a runway constructed in Antarctic areas with no net annual snow accumulation, so that the resultant ice surface is capable of supporting aircraft landings using wheels instead of skis. They are intended to make transferring materials to research stations simpler, since wheeled aircraft can carry much heavier loads than those which are ski-equipped.Blue ice runways were are created as a way of streamlining transport to the interior; without them, most heavy materials have to be brought by ship, then ferried inland by smaller aircraft equipped with skis.
