Conducting Autonomous Experiments in Space

Abstract

A device for conducting scientific experiments in space has a housing having dimensions of about 100 x 100 x 150 mm or smaller. Within the housing is an electronic processor, a camera, and a chamber for containing living or non-living test subjects. A mirror is positioned next to the chamber so that the camera lens can view both a face of the chamber, and the mirror, which reflects a side of the chamber. The chamber can additionally include sensors and a fan controlled by the processor to change conditions within the housing based upon sensor data.
