Description of the procedures followed and results obtained in low-gravity processing experiments conducted during the Apollo 14 mission and on two NASA-operated short-duration low gravity facilities. The discussed experiments include the Apollo-14 composite casting demonstration, the Marshall Space Flight Center drop tower tests, and the KC-135 Aircraft/M512 Facility tests. Future low gravity experiments are pointed out.
