About this work
iss059e091418 (6/4/2019) --- View taken of the hardware for the Capillary Structures investigation in the Japanese Experiment Module (JEM) onboard the International Space Station (ISS). This investigation studies a new method using structures of specific shapes to manage fluid and gas mixtures. It also studies water recycling and carbon dioxide removal, benefitting future efforts to design lightweight, more reliable life support systems for future space missions.
