We describe the design and development of the Low Temperature Microgravity Physics Facility, which is intended to provide long duration (4.5 months) low temperature (1.4K) and microgravity conditions for scientists to perform breakthrough investigations on board the International Space Station.
This paper will describe areas of research planned for early missions of LTMPF, as well as LTMPF science requirements, design capabilities and current status.
