NASA Glenn Research Center (Cleveland, Ohio) and Dynacs Engineering Co., Inc. are developing a multi-functional, remotely operated light microscope for telescience fluids physics research on the International Space Station (ISS). The module is designed for the Fluids and Combustion Facility in the U.S. Laboratory, and is manifested for flight in June, 2003. The design includes the following features: bright field, dark field, phase contrast, differential interference contrast (DIC), confocal microscopy, oil immersion, dynamic light scattering, full-field static light scattering, fluorescence microscopy, spectrophotometry, optical tweezers, and micro-rheology.
