43. Sonoluminescence In Space At Boston University Proposes to study sonoluminescence in space and in microgravity. http://www.bu.edu/paclab/sono/sono.html

Project overview: We have proposed a benchmark experiment that will probe the effects of gravity on Single Bubble Sonoluminescence (SBSL). SBSL has been the topic of many exciting research efforts in the past decade, yet there still remain several critical characteristics of the phenomenon to "decipher": (1) the light emission mechanism; (2) the disappearance of the bubble at some critical acoustic pressure; and (3) the appearance of quasiperiodic and chaotic oscillations in flash timing. Gravity, in the context of time-varying buoyancy , is implicated in these unexplained phenomena which have all been observed in 1g experiments. The project will include both numerical analysis' and KC-135 Parabolic Flight Experiments Further information: Preliminary analysis: "The effects of ambient acceleration on Bubble dynamics and single bubble sonoluminescence", by Sean C. Wyatt, R. Glynn Holt, and Ronald A. Roy. Results presented at the 136th Meeting of the Acoustical Society of America, Norfolk, VA, October 13, 1998.

NASA Science News home Not Just Another Old Flame NASA scientists have discovered unexpected spiral-shaped flames on Earth. By studying these peculiar flames, researchers hope to mitigate fire hazards on spacecraft and gain new insights about complex systems in nature. May 12, 2000 The forms of flames on Earth are familiar to everyone. We all know what a burning match, candle, fireplace or blowtorch look like or a burning building, or rocket ignition blast. The presence of gravity and the effects of air or gas movement, plus the type of fuel and oxidant, determine everything from a flame's shape and temperature to burn rate, burn pattern, soot production and deposition and how fast it will or won't be extinguished. "But in the microgravity of space, we are not dealing with just another old familiar flame," says Dr. Vedha Nayagam of NASA's National Center for Microgravity Research on Fluids and Combustion at the Glenn Research Center (GRC) in Cleveland, OH, where the nature of combustion in space is being studied intently by teams of scientists. Above : On Earth, gravity-driven buoyant convection causes a candle flame to be teardrop-shaped (A) and carries soot to the flame's tip, making it yellow. In microgravity, where convective flows are absent, the flame is spherical, soot-free, and blue (B). [

53. NASA/Marshall Microgravity Science: Overview Unlike these two science areas, microgravity science is in its infancy. This third part of our mission at NASA is microgravity science. http://science.nasa.gov/msl1/themes/micrograv_over.htm

Microgravity Science Overview W elcome to NASA's newest science!! Astronomy is thousands of years old, and began when the first human stared out into space. Chemistry is centuries old, with many of its origins in "alchemy," the attempt to turn lead into gold. Unlike these two science areas, microgravity science is in its infancy. Born of the space age, the first space experiments in microgravity science were carried out only 30 years ago. Our 16 years of research in microgravity science on the space shuttle is therefore just a first step in growing a vibrant and exciting science to generate new knowledge. What is the purpose of Microgravity research? N ASA has a mission to advance and communicate scientific knowledge and understanding about: the universe and the solar system the earth, and the use of the space environment for cutting-edge scientific research This third part of our mission at NASA is microgravity science. We use the unique environment of space, with its near-absence of the effects of gravity, to perform science research that cannot be done anywhere else. What does "Microgravity" mean anyway?

57. Space Outreach: What Is Microgravity? microgravity can be created by accelerating to orbital velocity, microgravity can also be created for short periods of time by lofting a smaller rocket, http://spaceoutreach.com/micro.htm

What Is Microgravity? Microgravity, sometimes called "zero-g" or "weightlessness", is a unique state of nature in which the effects of gravity are virtually eliminated most commonly through orbital flight in the space environment. Microgravity can be created by accelerating to orbital velocity, some 17,500 miles per hour, where a space vehicle can be placed in permanent "free fall" around the Earth once orbit is attained. Microgravity can also be created for short periods of time by lofting a smaller rocket, called a sounding rocket, on a suborbital arc. Orbital altitude may be attained but orbital velocity is not, causing the payload to experience 4 to 10 minutes of weightless free fall during its course back to the Earth's surface. These short sounding rocket microgravity missions are an excellent way to gain the benefits of microgravity experimentation at a fraction of the cost of orbital space flight. Shorter periods of free fall, from 1 to 30 seconds, may also be experienced on the Earth through parabolic aircraft flight or drop towers. ITA 's Materials Dispersion Apparatus ( MDA ) is a self-contained laboratory unit that can mix fluid samples at predetermined times in microgravity. During launch

59. Weightlessness - Wikipedia, The Free Encyclopedia This condition is also known as microgravity (see below). The term microgravity is also used because weightlessness in eg a spaceship or other container http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microgravity

Weightlessness From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia. (Redirected from Microgravity Astronauts on the International Space Station display an example of weightlessness Weightlessness is the experience (by people and objects) during freefall , of having no apparent weight . This condition is also known as microgravity (see below). Weightlessness in common spacecrafts is not due to an increased distance to the earth; the acceleration due to gravity at an altitude of, say, 100 km is only 3% less than at the surface of the earth. Weightlessness means a zero g-force or zero apparent weight ; acceleration is only due to gravity, as opposed to the cases where other forces are acting, including: standing on the ground, sitting in a chair on the ground, etc. (gravity is cancelled by the reaction force of the ground) flying in a plane (gravity is cancelled by the lift the wings provide) - see below for special trajectories which form an exception atmospheric reentry landing on a parachute : gravity is opposed by atmospheric drag during an orbital maneuver in a spacecraft : the rocket provides thrust The difference is that gravity acts directly on a person and other masses, just like on the vehicle, while forces like atmospheric drag and thrust first act on the vehicle, and through the vehicle on the person. In the first case the person and the vehicle floor are not pushed toward each other, while in the other cases they are.
