22. Sonoluminescence In Space At Boston University Proposes to study sonoluminescence in space and in microgravity. http://www.bu.edu/paclab/sono/sono.html

Project overview: We have proposed a benchmark experiment that will probe the effects of gravity on Single Bubble Sonoluminescence (SBSL). SBSL has been the topic of many exciting research efforts in the past decade, yet there still remain several critical characteristics of the phenomenon to "decipher": (1) the light emission mechanism; (2) the disappearance of the bubble at some critical acoustic pressure; and (3) the appearance of quasiperiodic and chaotic oscillations in flash timing. Gravity, in the context of time-varying buoyancy , is implicated in these unexplained phenomena which have all been observed in 1g experiments. The project will include both numerical analysis' and KC-135 Parabolic Flight Experiments Further information: Preliminary analysis: "The effects of ambient acceleration on Bubble dynamics and single bubble sonoluminescence", by Sean C.

Although I'm a Red Bull drinker I decided to give Antimatter a try (I admit that the space angle got my attention). The taste is very nice but more importantly the lift is perfect. I'm a professional skeet shooter and Antimatter gives me the perfect edge. Good lift and focus but no jitter.

Microgravity environment - Definition Main article: Weightlessness A microgravity environment is one where gravity has little or no measurable effect. The only three methods of creating a microgravity environment are to travel far enough into deep space so as to reduce the effect of gravity by attenuation, by falling, and by orbiting a planet. The terms weightlessness and Zero-G refer to this same environment. The first method is the simplest in conception, but requires you to travel an enormous distance, rendering it most impractical. Even during the missions to the Moon , the astronauts only experienced microgravity because they were orbiting the sun. The second method is, unfortunately, very common. Also unfortunately, it is difficult to fall for long enough periods of time to do much experimentation or to support any commercial activity. There are also problems involving the stop at the end. However, it is still used as training for astronauts and for some experiments. Drop towers and airplanes (such as used by NASA 's Reduced Gravity Research Program, aka the

MICROGRAVITY COMBUSTION LABORATORY Part of The Combustion Processes Laboratories MCL is a NASA-funded research facility in the Department Mechanical Engineering at the University of California, Berkeley , aiming at studying the potential onset of fire in environments encountered in spacecraft. The research goals are to better understand and predict material flammability, combustion products, and other fire-safety related phenomena in reduced gravity environments. Research focuses on experimental investigation, theoretical analysis and computational simulations. Some of the experiments are conducted in microgravity facilities, including drop towers, parabolic flights, Space Shuttle and in the future in the International Space Station.

31. Microgravity - Introduction There are many reasons for space flight. Space flight carries scientific instruments, and sometimes humans, high above the ground, permitting us to see Earth as a planet and to http://quest.nasa.gov/smore/background/microgravity/MGintro1.html

Introduction What Is Microgravity? The presence of Earth creates a gravitational field that acts to attract objects with a force inversely proportional to the square of the distance between the center of the object and the center of Earth. When measured on the surface of Earth, the acceleration of an object acted upon only by Earth's gravity is commonly referred to as one g or one Earth gravity. This acceleration is approximately 9.8 meters/second squared (m/s 2 ). The term microgravity (mg) can be interpreted in a number of ways depending upon context. The prefix micro - (m) is derived from the original Greek mikros, meaning "small." By this definition, a microgravity environment is one that will impart to an object a net acceleration small compared with that produced by Earth at its surface. In practice, such accelerations will range from about one percent of Earth's gravitational acceleration (aboard aircraft in parabolic flight) to better than one part in a million (for example, aboard Earth-orbiting free flyers). Another common usage of micro- is found in quantitative systems of measurement, such as the metric system, where micro- means one part in a million. By this second definition, the acceleration imparted to an object in microgravity will be one-millionth (10 -6 ) of that measured at Earth's surface.

MICROGRAVITY Reduced-Gravity Demonstrator A miniature drop tower for education! This miniature drop tower is used by Microgravity man and others to demonstrate the effects of reduced gravity on physical and chemical phenomena that are normally masked by Earth's gravity. Office of Life and Microgravity Sciences and Applications Microgravity Science and Applications Division Glenn Research Center Microgravity Science Division DEMONSTRATOR DESCRIPTION The demonstrator provides approximately 0.1g for 0.6sec. It consists of four essential parts: (1) an experiment platform , (2) a drop structure to hoist the platform to the top and then release it into a free-fall drop, (3) a deceleration system at the bottom to catch the experiment, and (4) a video cassette recorder and a monitor to record the experiment during the drop and replay it afterwards. (1) The experiment platform consists of a video camera and one of several interchangeable physics or chemistry experiments (described later). An eye bolt is fastened to the platform such that it can be hoisted to the top of the drop structure via a rope and pulley. Figure 1. - Experiment Platform
