Ved \u00e5 utnytte vektl\u00f8sheten i bane rundt jorden kan forskerne unders\u00f8ke mange fenomener som det ikke er lett \u00e5 studere p\u00e5 jorden.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>Columbus-laboratoriet er ESAs viktigste bidrag til ISS. Det sylinderformede laboratoriet er omtrent 6,5 meter langt og 4,5 meter bredt, og gir plass til opptil tre astronauter som kan arbeide under behagelige forhold i kort\u00e6rmet skjorte. Langs veggene st\u00e5r det 16 stativer med eksperimenter, oppbevaringsutstyr og annet utstyr.<\/p>\n<p>Disse omfatter:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>\n<p>Biolab, der det gjennomf\u00f8res eksperimenter p\u00e5 cellevev, sm\u00e5 planter og dyr<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>Et laboratorium for v\u00e6skeforskning, der forskere studerer v\u00e6skers oppf\u00f8rsel i vektl\u00f8s tilstand<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>Et anlegg for \u00e5 unders\u00f8ke metallenes egenskaper<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>Moduler der man unders\u00f8ker virkningene av mikrogravitasjon p\u00e5 menneskekroppen<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Andre eksperimenter er plassert p\u00e5 plattformer utenfor Columbus. Noen av disse brukes til \u00e5 utsette pr\u00f8ver av ulike materialer eller bakterier for de t\u00f8ffe forholdene i rommet. Andre tar bilder av Jorden, Solen eller fjerne galakser.<\/p>\n<p>Columbus ble fraktet til ISS med romfergen Atlantis og koblet til Harmony-modulen den 11. februar 2008. To ESA-astronauter, L\u00e9opold Eyharts fra Frankrike og Hans Schlegel fra Tyskland, var om bord for \u00e5 installere og ta laboratoriet i bruk. Schlegel gjennomf\u00f8rte to romvandringer for \u00e5 bist\u00e5 med flyttingen til Harmony. Eyharts ble v\u00e6rende om bord p\u00e5 stasjonen i omtrent to m\u00e5neder for \u00e5 teste Columbus\u2019 systemer og sette i gang de f\u00f8rste vitenskapelige eksperimentene.
