Under sin sex m\u00e5nader l\u00e5nga vistelse p\u00e5 stationen kommer han att genomf\u00f6ra cirka 100 experiment. Dessa kommer att omfatta studier av nya material och v\u00e4tskor, m\u00e4nniskokroppen och hur den anpassar sig till mikrogravitation, forskning om levande celler, solen och universum samt tekniska demonstrationer.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>M\u00e5nga av de experiment som rymdnykomlingen Gerst ska genomf\u00f6ra \u00e4r en forts\u00e4ttning p\u00e5 tidigare studier, men vissa kommer att bryta ny mark. En del av den mest sp\u00e4nnande forskningen kommer att utf\u00f6ras med hj\u00e4lp av en speciell ugn (en s\u00e5 kallad elektromagnetisk levitator) som ska transporteras till ISS med Europas ATV-5.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\" data-width=\"1024\" data-credit=\"NASA\" data-detail-url=\"https:\/\/www.esa.int\/ESA_Multimedia\/Images\/2014\/05\/AMS-02\" data-licence=\"ESA Standard Licence\" data-licence-url=\"https:\/\/www.esa.int\/ESA_Multimedia\/Terms_and_conditions_of_use_of_images_and_videos_available_on_the_esa_website\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" style=\"max-width:100%;height:auto\" src=\"https:\/\/www.esa.int\/var\/esa\/storage\/images\/esa_multimedia\/images\/2014\/05\/ams-02\/17909900-2-eng-GB\/AMS-02.jpg\" alt=\"\"><\/figure>\n<p>Ugnen kommer att installeras i ESA:s laboratorium Columbus. Den kommer att v\u00e4rma upp flytande metaller till 2100 \u00b0C och sedan kyla ner dem snabbt. Alexander kommer att s\u00e4tta in patroner som inneh\u00e5ller metallerna, och mikrogravitationsugnen kommer automatiskt att slutf\u00f6ra smidesprocessen. En h\u00f6ghastighetskamera kommer att spela in vad som h\u00e4nder.
