Miners in Space - Missouri S&T
We do experiments in zero-gravity.
We are a student organization at Missouri University of Science and Technology dedicated to conducting research in microgravity through the NASA Reduced Gravity Student Flight Opportunities Program (RGSFOP). Our team has performed experiments aboard NASA's Weightless Wonder research aircraft in 2003, 2005, 2007, 2008, 2009, 2011, 2012 and 2012 and have additional experiments planned for the future.
