【 摘 要 】

The electrostatic levitation (ESL) laboratory at NASA's Marshall Space Flight Center (MSFC) is a national resource for researchers developing advanced materials for new technologies. Electrostatic levitation minimizes gravitational effects and allows materials to be studied without contact with a container or data-gathering instrumentation.
