1. Experiment proposal form, ESA
This
document must be completed and
submitted as the main document in the application process.
2. Experiment report template, ESA
This
document serves both as a reference document through the preparation and the execution of the experiment as well as the final report once the programme ends. The selected students will complete this document as the project develops and they will have to re-submit it to ESA engineers and ESA’s Education Office at specific deadlines.
3. Privacy notice and consent form, ESA
This
document is to be read and submitted ratified during the
application process.
4. LDC summary, ESA
This
document summarises the main features of the Large Diameter Centrifuge (LDC).
5. LDC Experimenter User Manual, ESA
This
document will be provided to the selected teams with all the information needed to perform the experiments in the LDC facility. The document addresses the general features and operations and gives more technical details and technical data of the LDC in order to facilitate the preparation of the experiment.
6. ERASMUS Experiment Archive, ESA
An abstract of every ESA-sponsored experiment that has been performed on an altered gravity platforms can be found in this
database. Recently, it also includes experiments on hypergravity platforms. This resource may be of great help when it comes to defining the team’s project.
7. Experiment record template, ESA
This very short
document summarizes the experiment for the database ERASMUS. It must be completed by teams before the campaign. Once the campaign is completed the experiment record is updated and submitted to ESA’s Education Office at the same time as the Experiment Report.
8. Lab form template, ESA
The lab form template provides an overview of the experiment to the Lab Manager and places important and relevant information to the managers of the Large Diameter Centrifuge such that they are aware and informed of the experiment and any inherent risks it may pose. This document can be provided to the team by requesting it from the ESA Education Office.
9. ESA road map
This document lists some of ESA’s main objectives in science and technology for the foreseeable future, read through the entire document to see if your experiment aligns with some of these goals also.
