International Space Station Combustion and Fluids: How the ISS Enables Discoveries in Microgravity
"The International Space Station Program Science Office has in work a 15-book Researcher’s Guide Series by discipline. The purpose of the series, which is planned for completion in 2015, is to educate potential users of the ISS platform on how their ground‐based experiments can be translated to the space environment. Each guide is designed to “start the conversation” of how new researchers can find opportunities as well as assistance in the proposal development process. All the books in the series can be found here. Completed books are available for download in .pdf format below."
