The Microgravity Science Glovebox (MSG) is a joint development project between NASA and the European Space Agency (ESA). The double rack unit is a versatile research facility designed to permit the flexibility of crew-manipulated investigations. Its configuration has been planned around the concept of an experimental workstation where a variety of experiments can be installed and operated in a fashion very similar to their operation in a ground-based laboratory. ... Specifically, the facility provides a large enclosed work volume, power, video, photography, vacuum connections, heat rejection, stowage, filtered air, gaseous nitrogen, lighting, airlock access, physical positioning and hold-down attachments, and computer data acquisition and control capabilities.  3, record 6, English, - microgravity%20science%20glovebox

The MSG [Microgravity Science Glovebox] is a containment facility designed for supporting a wide range of microgravity science investigations and demonstrations. In the sealed mode, the MSG serves as a single level of containment by providing a physical barrier. In the air circulation mode the MSG serves as a one failure tolerant containment by providing a physical barrier and a negative pressure relative to the cabin. The MSG further facilitates investigations by providing many of the resources that are typically used by microgravity science investigations.  4, record 6, English, - microgravity%20science%20glovebox

This allows determination of both the linear accelerations and the rotational acceleration of the FCE, and allows for up to three levels of redundancy. There are four Light Emitting Diodes (LEDs) mounted on the FCE with collimated beams directed at four two dimensional Position Sensing Devices (PSDs) mounted on the ISPR.

MVIS comprend un ensemble réparti d'actionneurs Lorentz dont les aimants permanents sont montés sur le FCE et les bobines mobiles sont attachées au ISPR [International Standard Payload Rack]. Trois assemblages d'accéléromètres, qui incluent d'ailleurs trois accéléromètres chacun, sont aussi montés à l'intérieur du FCE. Ceci permet la détermination des accélérations linéaires et rotationnelles du FCE et permet jusqu'à trois niveaux de redondance (axes X, Y et Z). Il y a quatre diodes électroluminescents montés dans le FCE à l'aide de poutres alignées qui sont dirigés vers quatre Capteurs de position (PSDs) bidimensionnels montées dans le ISPR.

In a collaborative project with the Canadian Space Agency, two vibration isolation systems for zero-g environments have been developed - the Motion Isolation Mount (MIM) for orbital flights and the Large Motion Isolation Mount (LMIM) for parabolic flights. The approach taken for MIM has been to develop a mechanism having two parts: a stator attached to the structure and a payload-carrying flotor, with the only coupling between the two components being a flexible umbilical carrying signals and power to the flotor. The flotor is actively magnetically levitated by a set of wide-gap voice coil actuators. Its position relative to the stator is sensed by an optical position sensor while its absolute acceleration is sensed by an inertial accelerometer system. A digital controller uses the sensed information to compute actuator currents based on a control law that regulates acceleration and steady-state position to zero. The weak coupling between stator and flotor and the insensitivity of actuator force with position makes such a system extremely effective for vibration isolation ...  2, record 16, English, - motion%20isolation%20mount

Advanced Furnace for microgravity Experiment with X-ray radiography (AFEX). A multi-user image furnace with the capability for in-situ observation using X-ray radiography. A sample placed in the focus of a gold-plated ellipsoidal mirror is heated and melted by radiation from a 1500 W halogen lamp. Alternatively, isothermal heating of samples can be carried out using ceramic heaters placed around the sample. AFEX is allocated the entire resources of Materials Science Rack 2.  2, record 34, English, - advanced%20furnace%20for%20microgravity%20experiment%20with%20X%2Dray%20radiography

Even in a gravity gradient attitude, accelerations caused by crew movements, equipment operations, and occasional thruster firings can disrupt the quiescent low-gravity environment and may affect microgravity science experiments. Accelerations at particular frequencies may interrupt one type of experiment but have no effect on others. These accelerations are measured at fractions of Earth's gravity; for instance, 10~ g is equal to 1/100,000 of the gravity on Earth.  3, record 35, English, - microgravity%20environment

Un environnement en microgravité offre aux scientifiques une occasion unique de contrôler les phénomènes liés à la gravité. De plus, en microgravité, le traitement sans contenant peut être pratiqué sur de plus gros échantillons, car les force acoustiques et électromagnétiques utilisées pour manipuler ne sont pas dominées par la gravité.  2, record 35, French, - environnement%20en%20microgravit%C3%A9

The "Microgravity" and "Standard" operational modes are the primary modes for carrying out research activities on the ISS [International Space Station]. These two modes have been specifically defined to optimise the gravity environment of the ISS for user research activities. The Microgravity Mode, as the name suggests, provides the most optimised microgravity environment. The Microgravity Mode has been defined to ensure that: 50% of the International Standard Payload Rack locations within the European Columbus, Destiny and Japanese Kibo laboratories must have quasi-steady state accelerations less than 1 micro-g for at least 30 days continuously, on six occasions each year".  2, record 36, English, - microgravity%20mode

Mode changes are usually controlled by the ground controller or by on-orbit crew input commands, but the transition to survival mode may be automatically initiated by the ISS. ... In the microgravity mode, user payload operations for microgravity research are supported. This mode does include the effects of crew equipment such as exercise devices and latched or hinged enclosures, however crew effects are mitigated to the extent possible.  3, record 36, English, - microgravity%20mode
