Experiments with Alexander Gerst: TRANSPARENT

Exploring melting under microgravity conditions – improving industrial casting processes One of the focal points of research onboard the International Space Station (ISS) is the investigation of crystal growth in metal alloys. Under microgravity conditions, differences in density in the molten mate
