11. The miniature thermal emission spectrometer was also used to observe the sky and ground. 12. Observing the star thermal emission is therefore crucial. 13. Also of great importance is thermal emissions . 14. The laboratory version of the thermal emissions spectrometer will analyze the entries submitted to Schoolhouse Rocks. 15. Because it can detect thermal emissions , Terra can also see volcanoes warming up before they erupt. 16. The instruments based at the facility include the Thermal Emission Spectrometer ( TES ) aboard the spacecraft. 17. Most conventional fabrics are opaque to IR radiation and block thermal emission from the body to the environment. 18. Another way to modify the object thermal emission spectrum is by reducing the dimensionality of the emitter itself. 19. The reduced barrier causes easier transfer by tunneling or by thermal emission from donor to its adjacent donor. 20. NIMS also found thermal emission from several nearby paterae, where no volcanic activity had previously been observed.
