Book excerpt: Revised Edition October 2019 Orbiting 250 miles above the Earth, the ISS provides a platform for research to improve life on Earth, enable space exploration, and understand the universe. The intent of this researcher's guide is to help potential ISS fluid physics researchers plan experiments using the microgravity environment to understand how heat and mass transfer affect fluid flows and behavior. It covers the nature of the acceleration environment on ISS, available facilities for conducting fluid physics research, examples of previous microgravity research, and current fluid physics projects being developed for execution on the ISS.
