Biopolymer Research for In-Situ Capabilities
jsc2022e042480 (5/19/2022) --- An early iteration of the experiment hardware for the Biopolymer Research for In-Situ Capabilities investigation, launching aboard SpaceX’s 25th commercial resupply services mission to the International Space Station. Biopolymer Research for In-Situ Capabilities looks at how microgravity affects the process of creating biopolymer soil composite (BSC), a concrete alternative made by mixing an organic compound and silica, which is found in lunar and Martian dust.
