Open Science: Space Coffee Cup
[vid_tags]
In low-gravity environments like the space station, fluids tend to get ‘sticky.’ Surface tension and capillary effects, which are overwhelmed by gravity on Earth, rule the day in space. As a result, coffee tends to cling to the walls of the cup. The zero‑G coffee cup solves these problems by ‘going with the flow’: putting the strange behavior of fluid in microgravity to work.

OMG!! cool, the coffe. Good luck !!
omg i thought she was smokin a doobie in space
#brazil
Just damn awesome, love space and science. My only thing though, is that guy asking questions needs to put on a frickin smile dude
it’s pretty cool what you can get in fluid properties simply by changing the shape of the container
Astronauts better get their coffee. There be science to do.
Try making a centripetal station. At least 0.1 G
That would be a great step forward.
hola buenos dias, muy interesante los fenómenos del efecto cero gravedad. buen apunte el cafe.
