IDIOSYNCRASY OF INTERNATIONAL SPACE MARKETS Six decades have passed since the launch of the first artificial satellite by the USSR (Sputnik) and five decades since the landing of human beings on the Moon (Apollo project -USA-), two of the greatest landmarks of the space race that began in the shadow of the “Cold War” between the US and the USSR. After the conquest of the new world in the 16th century, this is considered a new turning point in the history of humanity that leads some authors to claim it as the beginning of a new period of history: The Space Age.

Experimental Methods The surface mount device beads under study have two rectangular contacts at opposite sides. With bends of 90 degrees that have an approximately planar surface of 3.048 mm2 each. In order to comply with the standard JESD22-A121, 12 leads on at least 6 components must be examined, with an accumulated lead surface bigger than 75 mm2.
