Final Science Results: Spacelab J

By: Nasa, National Aeronautics and Space Adm

This report contains a brief summary of the mission science conducted aboard Spacelab J (SL-J), a joint venture between the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) and the National Space Development Agency (NASDA) of Japan. The scientific objectives of the mission were to conduct a variety of material and life science experiments utilizing the weightlessness and radiation environment of an orbiting Spacelab. All 43 experiments were activated; 24 in microgravity sciences (material processing, crystal growth, fluid physics, and acceleration measurement) and 19 in life sciences (physiology, developmental biology, radiation effects, separation processes, and enzyme crystal growth). In addition, more than a dozen experiments benefited from the extra day through either additional experiment runs or extended growth time. Leslie, Fred (Editor) Marshall Space Flight Center...
