NASA Space Physical Science: How Low Gravity Environments Shape Science

This Space Physical Science cluster introduces the amazing science that happens in space, where the effects of gravity are reduced and changes the way many physical processes work. Through engaging pathways, explore topics like fluid physics, combustion, heat transfer, and fire safety, focusing on how these processes behave differently in space than on Earth. By studying real experiments from NASA's work aboard the International Space Station, you will gain a better understanding of how space research leads to new discoveries in physics and helps develop technologies that benefit both space missions and life on Earth.
