Jannatun Nawer (graduate student from Tufts University) visited the MSFC electrostatic levitation (ESL) laboratory is support of Dr. Douglas Matson’s (Tufts University) grant, “Round Robin - Thermophysical Property Measurement” (NNX17AH41G). Ms. Nawer is researching CMSX-4 Plus, a nickel-based superalloy, in support of future experiments on the International Space Station (ISS).

Dr. Richard Weber and Ms. Emma Clark from Materials Development Inc. during a visit to the MSFC electrostatic levitation (ESL) laboratory. Here they are preparing for ESL tests in support of Dr. Weber's NASA grant "Microgravity Investigation of Thermophysical Properties of Supercooled Molten Metal Oxides" (NNX17AH73G).

Allan Bonet (undergraduate student, University of Florida) prepares a test cell for ground-based testing in support of Dr. Ranga Narayanan’s (University of Florida) NASA grant “A Novel Way to Measure Interfacial Tension Using the Electrostatic Levitation Furnace (ELF)” (NNX17AL27G).

Evan Wilson (undergraduate student, University of Florida) observes a test apparatus to measure interfacial tension in support of Dr. Ranga Narayanan’s (University of Florida) NASA grant “A Novel Way to Measure Interfacial Tension Using the Electrostatic Levitation Furnace (ELF)” (NNX17AL27G).
