| Crystals formed in microgravity usually have a more perfect structure than those grown on Earth. |
| When astronauts go into microgravity they lose their sense of place and have to rely on visual and auditory cues. |
| Protein crystallization and cell biology are two areas in which microgravity research is particularly promising. |
| That experiment looked at the effects of microgravity on a mixture of molten mercury and gallium. |
| Interior designs may therefore need to counter the natural disorientation that tends to occur in microgravity. |
| Other physical sciences experiments are focused on subjects including foam and fire, both of which behave in very different ways in microgravity. |
