Are you interested in getting your own high-altitude or microgravity experiment idea supported and funded by NASA as part of Project PoSSUM? Project PoSSUM will be discussing and sharing their experience with the REDDI Proposal process, and you are invited to participate! We will discuss how...
On October 13th, Project PoSSUM graduated 11 students as part of PoSSUM Scientist-Astronaut Class 1503. The PoSSUM candidates learned about upper-atmospheric and noctilucent cloud science while participating in realistic mission simulations developed in partnership with Embry-Riddle. These simulations trained its candidates to effectively use PoSSUM...
Project POSSUM recently completed the first microgravity evaluation of a commercial spacesuit. The 3G IVA spacesuit, manufactured by Final Frontier Designs of Brooklyn, NY, was tested through a series of four microgravity flights on a Falcon 20 research aircraft specially modified for microgravity operations. 16...
On October 8th, Project PoSSUM graduated 11 students as part of PoSSUM Scientist-Astronaut Class 1502. The PoSSUM candidates learned about upper-atmospheric and noctilucent cloud science while participating in realistic mission simulations developed in partnership with Embry-Riddle. These simulations trained its candidates to effectively use PoSSUM...
NASA Astronaut Nicole Stott recently paid a visit to the PoSSUM mission simulation facility at the Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University and flew the baseline PoSSUM profile to an altitude of 103km. Her visit coincided with the Project PoSSUM Scientist Astronaut Qualification Program Class 1503. PoSSUM mission simulation...
