Potential NASA Rodent CentrifugeThis presentation is a summary of the continuing effort to determine options for studying artificial gravity with rodents. Results of an engineering trade study are presented and an overview of past and planned short radius centrifugation studies are presented. A leading proposal for a future flight centrifuge capable of housing rodents, the Techshot RCF, is presented in only enough detail as is approved by Techshot for public domain use.
