iss064e002379 (1/15/2017) --- Photo documentation of Inertial Spreading with Vibration and Water Coalescence (Drop Vibration) experiment hardware set up inside the Microgravity Science Glovebox (MSG) aboard the International Space Station (ISS). Inertial Spreading with Vibration and Water Coalescence (Drop Vibration) examines the behavior of big liquid drops whose perimeter of contact, called the contact line, moves rapidly as the drops change shape either forced by vibration or freely by merger.
