    Response of GAS payload (G345 and G347) temperatures to various orbiter flight attitudes (1986)
    In:  CASI
    Details
    Publication Date: 2006-06-12
    Description: At the beginning of the Get-Away Special (GAS) flight program, the GAS Project flew a Flight Verification Payload on STS-3 to make measurements of the vibrations, acoustic and magnetic environments of the canister, and to obtain thermal profiles of internal and external components of the GAS system. Two types of GAS canister end caps (insulated end cap and silverized teflon covered end cap) were used on the two flights (STS-7 and STS-8) so that a direct comparison of the thermal performance was obtained. These observations were compared with a simple thermal model of the instrument in the GAS canister in order to assess whether such simple models can be useful to experimenters in predicting the thermal response of their payloads.

    Material sciences experiments under microgravity conditions with MAUS (1986)
    In:  CASI
    Details
    Publication Date: 2006-06-12
    Description: Project MAUS is a part of the German material sciences program and provides autonomous payloads for the Space Shuttle. These payloads are housed in canisters which are identical with those of NASA's Get Away Special program. The main components of the hardware are: a standard system consisting of power supply, experiment control, data acquisition and the experiment modules containing experiment specific hardware. So far, three MAUS modules with experiments from the area of material sciences have been flown as GAS payloads. They deal with the effects of reduced sedimentation, convection phenomena caused by temperature gradients and the behavior of dispersed particles ahead of a solid/liquid interface.

    G-38, G-39 and G-40: Art in space, a divergent exploration (1986)
    In:  CASI
    Details
    Publication Date: 2006-06-12
    Description: The results of the Get Away Special (GAS) Arts-Science payload G-38, processed in orbit on board the Space Shuttle Challenger during mission 41-G STS 17, October 5 to 13, l984 are explained. The payload G-38 was created as a unified Arts-Science payload that simultaneously explored the process of vapor deposition in the vacuum and weightlessness of the shuttle environment and created a series of space sculptures utilizing this process. The purpose of the experiment was to test the sputter deposition process in space and to create five subtle spherical sculptures with metallic coatings of gold, silver, platinum and chrome.

    Growth of zeolite crystals in the microgravity environment of space (1986)
    In:  CASI
    Details
    Publication Date: 2006-06-12
    Description: Zeolites are hydrated, crystalline aluminosilicates with alkali and alkaling earth metals substituted into cation vacancies. Typically zeolite crystals are 3 to 8 microns. Larger cyrstals are desirable. Large zeolite crystals were produced (100 to 200 microns); however, they have taken restrictively long times to grow. It was proposed if the rate of nucleation or in some other way the number of nuclei can be lowered, fewer, larger crystals will be formed. The microgravity environment of space may provide an ideal condition to achieve rapid growth of large zeolite crystals. The objective of the project is to establish if large zeolite crystals can be formed rapidly in space.

    United States Air Force Academy's micro-gravity research using G-0307 (1986)
    In:  CASI
    Details
    Publication Date: 2006-06-12
    Description: The current materials research being done in microgravity solidification and the future experimentation planned onboard a space shuttle mission is reported. The Department of Engineering Mechanics at the USAF Academy is developing a microgravity furnace to be used on board the space shuttle. The microgravity furnace will be used to conduct materials research dealing with such topics as immiscible alloy solidification. The purpose behind this research project is three-fold: to develop a simple, inexpensive, and easy to use furnace to conduct space materials research, to conduct a solidification experiment on a lead-zinc alloy in space that macrosegregates due to gravity, and to provide a research mechanism for students to get involved with space materials research.

    NUSAT 1: The first ejectable getaway special (1986)
    In:  CASI
    Details
    Publication Date: 2006-06-12
    Description: Four hours, fourteen minutes and forty-two seconds after the space shuttle, Challenger, was launched on mission 51B, a small satellite was ejected into independent orbit from a Getaway Special canister. This event was an exciting milestone in a project conceived over seven years ago. It is hoped that the story of NUSAT (Northern Utah SATellite) will be an inspiration for other experimentors to exploit this new service of the Getaway Special program. The purpose and history of the project, the NUSAT spacecraft, the ground station and its operation, and some future directions envisioned by the participants are described.

    In:  CASI
    Details
    Publication Date: 2006-06-12
    Description: The Mitre Corporation of Bedford Mass. and the Worcester Polytechnic Institute are developing several experiments for a future Shuttle flight. Several design practices for the development of the electrical equipment for the flight hardware have been standardized. Some of the ideas are presented, not as hard and fast rules but rather in the interest of stimulating discussions for sharing such ideas.
