Researching Regolith on the International Space Station
Description
NASA is committed to landing American astronauts, including the first woman and the next man, on the Moon by 2024. When we go, it will be critical to understand how to interact with regolith – the fine
particles of dust that cover the Moon’s surface, and the surfaces of small, airless bodies. We’re using the International Space Station to study how regolith particles move in microgravity over a long period of time, in the Hermes facility recently launched to the orbiting laboratory.
