| Description: | Flying 250 miles above the Earth, the ISS provides a platform for research to improve life on Earth, enable space exploration, and understand the universe. This researcher’s guide is intended to help potential ISS fluid physics researchers plan experiments utilizing the microgravity environment in order to understand how heat and mass transfer affects fluid flows and behavior. It covers the nature of the acceleration environment on ISS, available facilities for conducting fluid physics research, examples of previous microgravity research, and current fluid physics projects being developed for execution on the ISS. |
