Graphene wire technology has potential application on all NASA missions where power is transferred electrically, including satellite and space probe power distribution harnesses, manned space missions, aerospace transportation, service/scientific instruments, and instruments in general.
The technology can potentially be used on a number of power transmission applications. The light weight of the wires will offer advantages from all transportation power distribution harnesses, as well as industrial, consumer, and scientific instruments with power distribution harnesses. It will be particularly useful for aerospace transportation in reducing weight, leading to fuel savings and the reduction of pollution byproducts.
