Aims & Scope
npj Microgravity covers research that enables space exploration, including scientific research needed to develop advanced exploration technologies and processes, particularly those profoundly affected by operation in a space environment; and research that is enabled by spaceflight and ground-based spaceflight analogues that provides novel insight into life, engineering and physical sciences to benefit Earth-based research and the general public.
To provide a thorough understanding of the scientific impact and future of spaceflight research.
Relevant and high-impact papers are considered for publication including (but not limited to):
-human health, performance and disease prevention
-fundamental and applied animal and plant research
-fundamental and applied cellular, molecular, and tissue biology
-fundamental and applied microbiology research
-fundamental physics
-fluid physics
-biophysics
-earth observations and remote sensing
-technology and instrumentation advances, including biotechnology
-complex fluids
-materials science
-combustion science
-astrobiology
-nanotechnology.
