Granular Mechanics and Regolith Operations (GMRO) Capabilities Two regolith test bins, one with 120 tons of BP-1 simulated extraterrestrial soil (25’x25′ area 3.5′ deep) and one with 2 tons of JSC-1a simulated extraterrestrial soil (calibrated dusty environment measurements, dusty mechanisms testing) Fine Particle Analyzer (FPA), sieves & shaker, and soil compressor. A complete complement of

Capabilities and Specialized Equipment The following electrostatic testing, measurement, and analyses can be performed in high and low temperatures, pressures, humidity and at various atmospheric conditions: Surface resistivity measurements Charge decay measurements Triboelectric charge measurements Volume resistivity measurements of solids, liquids, and powders Adhesion coefficient determination Electric field measurements Surface charge distribution measurements Surface analysis

Overview The ESPL at NASA Kennedy Space Center is dedicated to investigations in electrostatics and surface physics problems with applications for space flight and planetary exploration. The laboratory has the capability to conduct electrostatic analyses and materials characterization to assist in the detection, mitigation, and prevention of electrostatic charge generation on space flight hardware and
