Description: The equations of motion governing an incompressible fluid contained in an orbiting laboratory were examined to isolate various fictitious forces and their relative influence on the fluid. The forces are divided into those arising from the orbital motions and those arising from small local motions of the spacecraft about its center of mass. The latter dominate the nonrotating experiments. Both are important for rotating experiments. A brief discussion of the onset of time-dependence and violent instability in earth-based rotating and processing systems is given.
