Welcome to the EDLS and MICR0-G Web Site
The purpose of the EDLS spaceflight experiment is to assess forces and
torques imparted by crew members onto the space station Mir. EDLS is the
successor experiment to the DLS experiment conducted on Shuttle mission
STS-62. One of the key missions of the International Space Station (ISS)
is to perform microgravity science experiments that require a quiescent
environment (~10-4 to 10-7 g's). For this reason we are
conducting space flight experiments for the ISS Program that investigate
how astronauts disturb the spacecraft microgravity environment.
