  Space Station - MSN Encarta
Space stations are used as laboratories where scientific and engineering experiments are conducted and as servicing centers where spacecraft can be repaired, upgraded, or even constructed.
Space stations are expected to one day act as spaceports where spacecraft can pick up and deliver people, cargo, and fuel on the way to or returning from distant destinations, such as Mars.
A space station was first proposed by Russian scientist Konstantin Tsiolkovsky at the beginning of the 20th century.

In mathematics, the space of loops or loop space of a topological space X is the space of continuous maps from the unit circle S
If we consider the quotient of the loop space with respect to the equivalence relation of pointed homotopy, then we obtain a group, the well-known fundamental group.
The loop space construction is right adjoint to the suspension functor, and the version for pointed spaces to the reduced suspension.

 The Reference Frame: Objections to loop quantum gravity
In theoretical physics, loop quantum gravity is one speculative approach to quantum gravity, sometimes cited as a competitor theory to string theory.
It is not surprising; if loop quantum gravity cannot predict the existence of space itself, it is even more difficult to decide whether it predicts the existence of gravitons and their interactions.
Loop quantum gravity, on the other hand, says that geometry is a good variable at all distance scales, and the areas etc. have discrete spectrum, which contradicts Lorentz invariance in any theory with local excitations.

 BioMed Central | Full text | Saturating representation of loop conformational fragments in structure databanks
These loops are involved in the recognition of the antigen molecules and have been shown that for five of the six CDR loops (also known as the hypervariable regions) there are few different main-chain conformations (canonical forms)[29].
For instance, for loop length 8 a 62.5% cutoff is required to guarantee similar conformations but in case of 12 residue loops 41.6% cutoff is already enough to ensure structural similarity (Figure 2a and Table 3 and 4).
Almost all loop fragments in 2005 can be matched sequentially to a fragment already known in 2001 with 40% of greater sequence identity, and 25% of all loop sequences in 2005 have a 100% sequence identity to loop sequences in 2001 (Figure 4).

The loop should be mechanically stable (wires not flopping loose) The distributed capacitance between turns should be kept low by proper design to allow for wide tuning range, but not too wide to degrade the length to diameter ratio of the coil.
To mount it to the loop head, I used a hole in the crossover of the loop to attach to the alt-azimuth mount.
Prior to this, loops were of the transformer variety, with the signal being coupled to the receiver via a link turn, wound amongst, but not attached to the windings of the main tank coil.

So if you have the space, and even if you don't have alot of extra space, you might consider the loop to be a very good alternative to the dipole, or even a (Yagi) beam.
Larger loops are rarely seen these days in full view since they usually blend in so well with their surroundings.
A horizontal loop is similar to a vertical radiator in that its propagation is omni-directional.

Inside the pavilion, each looped space is perceived as an immersive environment in which the relationship of scale and proportion between the viewer and projection are modified.
The pavilion can unfold itself as needed into a network of spaces which are defined by parameters of time, boundary, crowd density and program; the structure is able to continuously adapt itself to any kind of boundary condition.
There are 3 structural deformations: tilting (vertical deformation), loop formation (horizontal curvature) and twisting (diagonal deformation), and each space can perform them singularly or in combination to achieve the spatial quality requested by the programme and the user.

By applying the loop formulation of quantum theory to the problem, they were the first to derive discrete units of space directly from the equations of general relativity.
Now space joins the quantum party, but only at an amazingly small scale; the diameter of a quantum loop is a minuscule 10-33 centimeter (a million-billion-billion- billionths of a centimeter).
According to Smolin, it is difficult to talk about the properties of one loop of space, just as you can’t talk about the temperature or density of a single atom.

 Loop group - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In mathematics, a loop group is a group of loops in a topological group G with multiplication defined pointwise.
An element of LG is called a loop in G. Pointwise multiplication of such loops gives LG the structure of a topological group.
The space LG is called the free loop group on G.

 Interceptive Orthodontics and Space Maintenance
The premature loss of primary molars may require the placement of a space maintainer to prevent the migration of the adjacent teeth, depending upon the teeth present and the arch length.
A space maintainer is usually not necessary if there is a sufficient amount of space present to allow for eruption of permanent tooth/teeth.
A space maintainer may not be recommended if severe crowding exists, such that space maintenance is of minimal effect and subsequent orthodontic intervention is indicated.

If G is any topological group, there is a topological space BG with a basepoint such that the space of loops in BG starting and ending at this point is homotopy equivalent to G. This space BG is unique up to homotopy equivalence.
The quotient space BG = EG/G is thus the space of all nordered n-tuples of distinct points in an infinite-dimensional Hilbert space.

 String Propagator: a Loop Space Representation
The string quantum kernel is normally written as a functional sum over the string coordinates and the world-sheet metrics.
As an alternative to this quantum field-inspired approach, we study the closed bosonic string propagation amplitude in the functional space of loop configurations.
This functional theory is based entirely on the Jacobi variational formulation of quantum mechanics, without the use of a lattice approximation.
