Foams are more than you think! In this video, Dr Dominique Langevin explains in full detail what the FOAM-C experiment (to be installed on the ISS on June 11, 2021 by astronaut Thomas Pesquet under the supervision of B.USOC) is all about. What is so special about foams? What are they used for? Why are we making foam in space on the International Space Station? How does that work exactly?

The FOAM-C experiment has been developed by Airbus DS for the European Space Agency. The work was financed by ESA and CNES.
FOAM-C is controlled and data collected by the Belgian User Support and Operations Centre (B.USOC), located at the Royal Belgian Institute for Space Aeronomy, and operated with the support of Space Applications Services NV/SA.
The experiment results are analysed by an international research team coordinated by Dr Dominique Langevin (LPS Orsay, Université Paris-Saclay, France).
We especially thank Olivier Minster (ESA) who initiated the project, Marco Braibanti (ESA) who took care of the final realization and Christophe Delaroche (CNES) for his unwavering support.
