G-616, more formally known as GAS canister # G-616: The Effect of Cosmic Radiation on Static Computer Media & Plant Seeds Exposure to Microgravity was an experiment flown on the Space Shuttle as a self-contained experiment. ==Description== Small Self-Contained Payload G-616 was managed and owned by Thomas M. Hancock III, a space scientist from Redlands California. G-616 was assigned by NASA to Mr. Hancock in 1987. He developed and constructed the primary payload. It was approved for flight by NASA in 1988. G-616 originally consisted of 3 experiments: #A study on the effects of low Earth orbit on sympatic (Space Shuttle External Tank) foam - to assess if leaving a Space Shuttle External Tank in space was feasible. #Static Computer Memory Integrity Testing (SCMIT) – looking for soft event upsets (bitflips) in static computer media #Cultavor Microgravity Exposure (seeds in space). This experiment was to fly over two million seeds of 57 types from all over the world to orbit. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「G-616」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
