Breaking space news, the latest updates on rocket launches, skywatching events and more!
The mission experiments are:
MicACTin, from Karolinska Institutet, Sweden, aims to benefit astronauts’ health and help develop immune system activation treatments by studying how microgravity affects T cells in the immune system.LiFiCo, from Karlstad University, Sweden, is focused on improving solar cell efficiency by investigating how microgravity impacts liquid film coating processes to optimize solar cells.DUST-II, developed at Hokkaido University, Japan, and Braunschweig University in Germany, will look at how dust grains form and grow in space, which could provide insights into phenomena such as giant stars, newly formed planetary systems and the atmospheres of exoplanets.JACKS, from Brandenburg University of Applied Sciences and OvGU in Germany, will look at granular gasses and complex particle behavior, which aims to provide insights into the evolution of celestial bodies and energy transfer mechanisms.BFS, run by the Stockholm University Baltic Sea Centre in Sweden, with analysis to be performed in collaboration with Helsinki University, will study the reproduction of macroalgae Bladderwrack (Fucus vesiculosus), which is common in the Baltic and Atlantic, and its synchronization with lunar cycles.TATTS, from Linköping University, Sweden and in collaboration with the University of Colorado, is designed to capture video of water behavior in microgravity as part of fundamental research into fluid dynamics in space.
The launch window runs through Dec. 3. Sweden’s Arctic Esrange spaceport is also preparing to host orbital launches in the future.
