AFRL experiments aboard ISS
The Air Force Research Laboratory recently partnered with NASA to conduct materials experiments aboard the International Space Station. The Materials on the International Space Station Experiment (MISSE) program exposes materials in suitcase sized containers to orbit before returning them to Earth aboard the space shuttle. Pictured is MISSE 6A and 6B. (NASA Photo)
AFRL tests composite material fasteners aboard Russian reentry vehicle
AFRL researchers tested composite fasteners aboard a Russian spacecraft heatshield. The Russian Foton-M3 launched from Kazakhstan one year ago on Sept. 14, 2007 carried the AFRL experiment into a 12-day orbit before renentering the atmosphere. Photo is a close-up view of a holder and material sample after touchdown. (U.S. Air Force photo)

AFRL experimental engine on display at Air Force museum
The first aircraft to fly powered by a pulse detonation engine was donated to the National Museum of the United States Air Force on August 25. The Air Force Research Laboratory's Propulsion Directorate developed the engine with in-house contractor Innovative Science Solutions, Inc. (ISSI), and AFRL's Air Vehicles, Materals, and Human Effectiveness directorates. (U.S. Air Force photo/Chris Gulliford)
