The huddle is a “timed” 5 minute meeting each day. The huddle is a concept in the lean manufacturing process. Every department has their own huddle board in which employees are encouraged to post suggestions.

CONT

In the fall of 2012, the Site Maintenance Managers and Supervisors were invited to take part in a workshop to generate ideas to maximize “start of the day” and “end of the day” shop time. The group generated several ideas including the suggestion of “Visual Shop Boards”, otherwise known as “huddle” boards. These boards are used across multiple industries from software development to manufacturing, health care and other government agencies. They provide a structured focus to meetings, create ownership by engaging teams, and provide transparency on the team's performance to anyone walking through the facility or building.

As the 2.5 meter [drum-shaped] centrifuge rotates, it produces artificial gravitational forces upon attached habitats that house various biological specimens. It is capable of producing controlled, artificial gravity levels ranging from 0.01 g to 2 g. To create a 1 g field (Earth’s gravity), the centrifuge rotates at 28 revolutions per minute. Selectable gravity will permit scientists to compare how differing gravity levels affect the biology of organisms housed under otherwise identical conditions, thus separating the effects of gravity from other factors in the space environment.

The ESA facility MOMO MOrphological transition in transparent MOdel materials is designed to study directional solidification of optically transparent melts. It investigates the effect of gravity on the formation of growth morphologies.

CONT

The key element of the MOMO experiment assembly is a Bridgman furnace for low temperatures (< 100°C). The furnace generates a temperature gradient over a cylindrical glass ampoule containing the sample. The sample material for the first two flights was a succinonitrile (SCN) based compound, which has solidifying structures similar to those of a metal alloy. The furnace is accommodated on a linear drive, which can be moved over the sample ampoule for directional solidification. An endoscope from the liquid side of the sample provides optical observation of the solid-liquid interface. Recorded images are analysed after the experiment to determine parameters of the solidifying morphological structure.

Biological species are kept in twelve 75 ml chambers, six at 0 g and six at 1 g. An uninterrupted 1 g control is provided. Temperatures and light levels can be adjusted to suit the species and the experiment.

An electromagnetic levitation facility that allows containerless processing of metallic samples in microgravity.

CONT

The TEMPUS [German acronym] facility supports containerless positioning and heating of electrically conducting samples. Using special devices, even semiconductors can be positioned and melted. The absence of container walls leads to the possibility of undercooling the liquid sample by several hundred degrees and to study its properties and solidification behaviour.

Facility Building near the Vehicle Assembly Building at KSC [Kennedy Space Center] with two bays in which the Orbiter undergoes post flight inspection, maintenance, and pre-mate checkout prior to payload installation.

CONT

Immediately after landing, the orbiter is towed to the Orbiter processing Facility (OPF) located west of the Vehicle Assembly Building (VAB). The orbiter then undergoes safing procedures in the OPF which include removing residual fuels and explosive ordnance items. Then the orbiter’s previous mission payloads are removed and the vehicle is fully inspected, tested, and refurbished for its next mission. These functions require approximately two-thirds of the time between missions. The remainder is devoted to the installation and checkout of the payload for the next mission. Power-up testing of orbiter vehicles in the OPF are actually controlled from consoles in the Launch Control Complex (LCC) .
