TL;DR: The SMA linear actuator as mentioned in this paper includes a restoring spring assembly having a restoring force that decreases with increasing displacement to minimize residual strain in the SMA components, which can be used to construct a small actuator of minimal size and maximum stroke displacement.

TL;DR: The microchannel plate, delay line, detectors developed for the far ultraviolet spectroscopic explorer mission to be launched in 1998 are described in this paper, where two FUSE detectors have a large format (approximately equals 184 mm by 10 mm split into two 88.5 × 10 mm segments), with high spatial resolution (less than 20 micrometer by 50 micrometers FWHM, greater than 9000 by 200 resolution elements) and good linearity, high image stability, and counting rates in excess of 4 by 104 events sec-1.

TL;DR: The Far Ultraviolet Spectroscopic Explorer (FUSE) was launched into orbit on June 24, 1999 and made high resolution observations of solar system, galactic, and extragalactic targets in the far ultraviolet wavelength region (905 - 1187 angstroms).
