Title

Life and Physical Sciences under reduced Gravity

Description

This session focusses on the presentation of scientific and operational results obtained from life and physical sciences research conducted on large orbital platforms, in particular the ISS. Papers on planned or newly developed research topics and experiment scenarios are also invited. The session is not limited to the usage of the ISS but comprises the preparation scenarios for further long term flight opportunities beyond the low earth orbit such as Deep Space Gateway.
