HOUSTON — Nearly 300 participants gathered Aug. 3 for the first NASA International Space Station Research Academy, a three-day offering designed to familiarize researchers and payload developers with the orbiting outpost’s designation as a National Laboratory and its capabilities to support experiments in fields ranging from fundamental biology and physics to biotechnology and Earth observations.
The initial program, conducted close to the Johnson Space Center in Houston, is likely to be repeated around the country as NASA nears the end of the station’s 12-year assembly, with ample room to spare on the station for scientists who would not normally be interested in microgravity investigations.
