Preparation for microgravity - The role of the Microgravity MaterialScience Laboratory
Space Programs and Technologies Conference, 1988A laboratory dedicated to ground based materials processing in preparation for space flight was established at the NASA Lewis Research Center. Experiments are performed to delineate the effects of gravity on processes of both scientific and commercial interest. Processes are modeled physically and mathematically.

Abstract Microgravity is the state of near-weightlessness that exists within a spacecraft which is in orbit around the Earth or has achieved escape velocity and is on its way towards other planets. The gravity on Earth is used as the standard measurement- I g-and the gravity experienced in a spacecraft is expressed as a fraction of ...

Amphibian Amplexus in Microgravity
Zoological Science, 1995We report here on the amplectic behavior of the Japanese treefrog (Hyla japonica) in microgravity. Treefrogs were exposed to 35 cycles of altered gravity, including approximately 1.5 sec of G < 0.1 every 3 min and 15 sec, on the FreeFall "G.0" ride at Space World amusement park in Kitakyushu, Japan.

Proteomics and genomics of microgravity
Physiological Genomics, 2006Many serious adverse physiological changes occur during spaceflight. In the search for underlying mechanisms and possible new countermeasures, many experimental tools and methods have been developed to study microgravity caused physiological changes, ranging from in vitro bioreactor studies to spaceflight investigations. Recently, genomic and proteomic

Liposome formation in microgravity
Advances in Space Research, 1996Liposomes are artificial vesicles with a phospholipid bilayer membrane. The formation of liposomes is a self-assembly process that is driven by the amphipathic nature of phospholipid molecules and can be observed during the removal of detergent from phospholipids dissolved in detergent micelles.

Airway closure in microgravity
Respiratory Physiology & Neurobiology, 2005Recent single breath washout (SBW) studies in microgravity and on the ground have suggested an important effect of airway closure on gas mixing in the human lung, reflected particularly in the phase III slope of vital capacity SBW and bolus tests. In order to explore this effect, we designed a SBW in which subjects inspired 2-l from residual volume (RV)

Renal adjustments to microgravity
Pflügers Archiv, 2000During a 10-day shuttle mission, the diuretic and natriuretic responses to an i.v. isotonic saline load were attenuated and plasma noradrenaline concentration increased after 5-6 days of microgravity compared with to those of the acute supine position prior to flight.
