Microgravity

For one, bone loss in microgravity is sorely needing more than a few data and interpolating curves through scattered points is the easy part. ❋ Unknown (2009)

I will concede, microgravity is no more, the science budget hasn't gone up as much as was once planned, and aeronautics just isn't what it used to be. ❋ Unknown (2009)

New Scientist put together a slideshow of interesting experiments in microgravity, like you would experience on the International Space Station (ISS). ❋ Unknown (2009)

One of the few scientific success stories of the International Space Station has been its use to grow large, pure crystals in microgravity (see Space station unlocks new world of crystals). ❋ Unknown (2007)

I've floated in microgravity a few times on Zero G flights, and it would sure be even more fun to float around in satin poufs instead of those pedestrian spacesuits. ❋ Unknown (2006)

One is that, in microgravity, blood that normally is dragged by gravity to the legs instead is spread evenly throughout the body, causing astronauts to feel rather like they have a head cold. ❋ Edward Willett (2006)

What they all taught us (unless you actually care about fruitfly reproduction in microgravity) was that the only individuals who would _ever_ be allowed to get into space were precisely the kind of government-approved jockstraps who were on the varsity football team when you were in high school — oh yes, and an occasional cheerleader — oops, make that public school teacher. ❋ Unknown (2003)

Infrastructure like that cannot be developed and tested either on Earth or in microgravity (i.e., ❋ Unknown (2009)

It will not be possible to reliably develop this equipment either on Earth or in microgravity (i.e., ❋ Unknown (2009)

"In the next few days we are expecting two female ‘cosmonauts’ to give birth to the world’s first offspring conceived in microgravity," Dmitry Atyakshin said. ❋ Unknown (2007)

A long duration mission to the Moon - maybe with some temporary base-like infrastructure, could be really useful for studying long term microgravity effects on mammels. ❋ Unknown (2009)

Unlike on Earth, hot, less-dense air does not rise in microgravity. ❋ Unknown (2009)

Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA), Listeria monocytogenes, Enterococcus faecalis and Candida albicans The research will utilize the unique environment of microgravity, which is known to impact virulence (infection potential) of microbes, to help discover potential targets for a vaccine or therapeutic agent to fight infections caused by these microbes.

Financial loser: One fading mission is "microgravity," the manufacture of specialized materials and proteins in orbit. ❋ Unknown (2008)

In a national competition, 14 teams of students in grades six through nine from 10 local schools designed "microgravity" experiments that have been selected by NASA for testing. ❋ Unknown (2010)
