The Nano Particle Haloing Suspension payload undergoes a fitting test at NASA's Marshall Space Flight Center in the Microgravity Science Glovebox replica. This payload tests controlled assembly of nanoparticles in a solution of zirconia and titanium-dioxide coated silica. Effective demonstration could lead to applications in an enhanced solar cell generation technology known as quantum-dot solar synthesis. Image courtesy of the University of Louisville.
