Matthew Vellone operates the first prototype of the experimental system to fly aboard the International Space Station. The ground set-up is tilted to drive the flow of oil into a large tube using gravity. The Gaucho Lung investigation will study fluid transport within gel-coated tubes to learn more about treatment programs for respiratory distress syndrome and develop new contamination control strategies.
