Compact robot takes flight to support CERISS initiative
Friday, 15 March 2024 16:17 Write a comment
A new robot will be taking flight soon to test its ability to support biological and physical science experiments in microgravity. As one of NASA's 2023 TechFlights selections, this compact robot will have a chance to fly on a commercial suborbital flight to see just how well it can perform in a space environment.
Managed by NASA's Flight Opportunities program, the TechFlights 2023 solicitation included a call for technologies to support the agency's Commercially Enabled Rapid Space Science (CERISS) initiative. CERISS, administered by NASA's Biological and Physical Sciences Division, uses the spaceflight environment to study phenomena in ways that cannot be done on Earth.
One of the 11 TechFlights selections that will undergo flight testing is a compact robot designed to prepare samples for science experiments in microgravity, improve in-flight sample preparation capabilities and potentially reduce astronauts' time tending to such research while on the International Space Station or future commercial destinations in low Earth orbit.
Led by principal investigator Phil Putman, manager of advanced projects at Sierra Lobo, Inc, in Fremont, Ohio, the tests will leverage parabolic flights from Zero Gravity Corporation to evaluate the technology's performance in microgravity.
