Elle permettra aussi d’évaluer les conséquences des perturbations qui en découlent lors de la réadaptation de l'homme à la gravité terrestre [...] Une échographie Doppler effectuée à bord permettra de visualiser le cœur, les structures abdominales, les vaisseaux superficiels et profonds et d’enregistrer la vitesse du sang et le volume de la circulation sanguine dans ces structures. Parallèlement, des dosages biochimiques et hormonaux seront réalisés à partir de prélèvements d’urine, de sang et de salive, afin d’étudier les mécanismes hormonaux d’adaptation de l'homme en impesanteur.

To preprare for a Hubble servicing mission, astronauts spend many hours training underwater. This allows them to experience how their suits, science instruments, tools, crew aids and other equipment respond to movement in a space-like environment. In the water, astronauts wear small weights on their space suits to make themselves "neutrally buoyant." This means they neither sink nor rise, but hover suspended, as they would in space. By practicing their servicing tasks underwater, the spacewalkers learn to work swiftly and efficiently in orbit. 2, record 4, English, - neutral%20buoyancy%20testing

L'impesanteur, dans le domaine de l'astronautique comme dans tout autre, est l'état d’un corps tel que l'ensemble des forces gravitationnelles et inertielles auxquelles il est soumis possède une résultante et un moment résultant nuls. L'impesanteur [...] est donc le phénomène ressenti en l'absence de pesanteur. L'impesanteur n’ est donc pas provoquée par l'éloignement de la Terre ou de tout autre corps céleste attractif : l'accélération due à la gravité à une hauteur de 100 km par exemple n’ est que de 4 % moindre qu'à la surface de la Terre. En réalité, l'impesanteur est ressentie lorsque l'accélération subie égale la gravité, ce qui recouvre aussi le cas où le champ de gravité serait nul, ce qui n’ arrive pas puisque l'influence de la gravité est partout dans l'Univers. 8, record 10, French, - impesanteur

The Space Shuttle system consists of four primary elements: an orbiter spacecraft, two Solid Rocket Boosters (SRB), an external tank to house fuel and oxidizer and three Space Shuttle main engines. ... The Shuttle will transport cargo into near Earth orbit 100 to 217 nautical miles (115 to 250 statute miles) above the Earth. This cargo or payload is carried in a bay 15 feet in diameter and 60 ft long. Major system requirements are that the orbiter and the two solid rocket boosters be reusable. ... The orbiter has carried a flight crew of up to eight persons. A total of 10 persons could be carried under emergency conditions. The basic mission is 7 days in space. The crew compartment has a shirtsleeve environment, and the acceleration load is never greater than 3 Gs. In its return to Earth, the orbiter has a cross-range maneuvering capability of 1,100 nautical miles (1,265 statute miles). The Space Shuttle is launched in an upright position, with thrust provided by the three Space Shuttle engines and the two SRB. After about 2 minutes, the two boosters are spent and are separated from the external tank.

La navette spatiale Américaine [...] est un véhicule de l'espace mis au point par La NASA, l'Agence spatiale Américaine. La navette peut décoller comme une fusée, verticalement, se mettre en orbite autour de la Terre pour remplir des missions et revenir sur Terre en atterrissant comme un avion, horizontalement. Contrairement aux fusées la navette peut resservir 100 fois. Elle peut transporter un équipage de spationautes pour rejoindre une station spatiale comme MIR ou la station international Alpha, transporter un satellite à mettre en orbite autour de la Terre ou une sonde à envoyer dans l'espace. La navette peut également se transformer en station spatiale. Elle transporte alors un laboratoire, Spacelab, qui est utilisé pour faire des expériences en impesanteur. La première navette a été lancée le 12 Avril 1981. Elle s’appelait Columbia. Vinrent ensuite Challenger, Discovery et Atlantis. En 1991 la navette Endeavour a été mise en service. 4, record 12, French, - navette%20spatiale%20am%C3%A9ricaine

Parmi les méthodes de croissance cristalline, le procédé de la «zone flottante» permet la fabrication de monocristaux d’une très grande pureté. Dans cette méthode, une zone fluide, obtenue par fusion, est maintenue en place par sa propre tension superficielle, entre deux barreaux solides, verticaux et colinéaires. Le cylindre supérieur est un solide polycristallin alors que le cylindre inférieur est un monocristal (en général du silicium) qui croit au fur et à mesure que la zone fondue recristallise, avec le déplacement vertical de la source de chauffage latéral. La convection dans la phase fluide induite par les inhomogénéités de tension superficielle (convection thermocapillaire) et par la gravité (convection thermogravitationnelle) peut entraîner des défauts dans le monocristal. 3, record 13, French, - technique%20de%20la%20zone%20flottante

Le principe de la zone flottante en microgravité est relativement simple. Prenons par exemple un bâtonnet de beurre dont on fait fondre une des extrémités au moyen d’un briquet. Sur Terre, évidemment, le beurre se met à fondre et tombe goutte à goutte. En impesanteur cependant, le beurre fondu forme une sphère et demeure en suspension dans l'air. On appelle cette sphère une «zone flottante». Si l'on déplace le bâtonnet de beurre très lentement au-dessus de la flamme pour éventuellement le faire fondre au complet, la zone flottante initiale commence à se solidifier en s’éloignant de la source de chaleur. Bien que le beurre fondu se soit resolidifié, sa forme et ses propriétés sont différentes. Il en est de même pour les échantillons de matériaux fondus en microgravité qui, à l'étape de la resolidification, forment des cristaux plus purs et de structure plus parfaite. 4, record 13, French, - technique%20de%20la%20zone%20flottante

Installation aquatique de recherche(ARF) [...] L'ARF constitue non seulement un laboratoire idéal pour des expériences en milieu aquatique, mais elle est équipée du matériel nécessaire à l'enregistrement en microscopie d’images des sujets étudiés, en conditions d’impesanteur et de pesanteur simulée, sans que les spécimens soient perturbés. La température et les niveaux d’éclairement peuvent être modifiés en fonction de l'espèce et de l'expérience. Mais l'avantage le plus important de l'ARF, c'est qu'il permet de commander par ordinateur l'introduction dans un aquarium particulier des produits nécessaires à une expérience en cours, comme des marqueurs chimiques, sans perturber les expériences réalisées dans les autres aquariums. L'installation est conçue de façon à pouvoir être commandée de la Terre ou par un astronaute en orbite. Cependant, lors du vol inaugural, c'est un astronaute qui a commandé l'ARF, aidé des conseils transmis par les scientifiques depuis le centre de contrôle au sol. Tout ce matériel technique tient dans un seul casier du compartiment intermédiaire de la navette, casier qui n’ est guère plus gros qu'un bagage à main.
