The transient behavior of liquid hydrogen, under conditions of zero gravity, was studied photographically. The hydrogen was subjected to weightlessness by dropping a Dewar containing this liquid from a height of 9 feet. During the weightless period of approximately 3/4 second, the liquid rose along the walls of the Dewar into the original vapor space. The rise occurred at constant velocity for practically the entire duration of this period. Adhesive forces were concluded to be the primary cause of the liquid rise along the wall.
