iss073e0002997 (4/28/2025) --- A view of the Colloidal Solids investigation inside the Microgravity Sciences Glovebox (MSG). Colloidal Solids (COLIS) provides researchers with a better understanding of the origin, formation, and dynamics of protein crystals and colloidal glasses and gels. COLIS is a state-of-the-art multi-line light scattering apparatus that enables the research team to monitor the dynamics of physical processes, during and after solidification, of soft matter solids on the International Space Station (ISS) to assess the role played by gravity on the properties of growing structures.
