Description and Table of Contents

Description

The European Retrievable Carrier (EURECA) was launched in July 1992 by the Space Shuttle ATLANTIS and commenced scientific missions in August 1993. From a microgravity point of view EURECA turned out to be a very stable experiment platform. The 21 papers contained in this volume feature results obtained from EURECA in microgravity, space and earth sciences (including biology) and also technology. The book is intended for space scientists, astrophysicists and astronautical engineers.
