Observational study: microgravity testing of a phase-change reference on the International Space Station

BACKGROUND: Orbital sensors to monitor global climate change during the next decade require low-drift rates for onboard thermometry, which is currently unattainable without on-orbit recalibration. Phase-change materials (PCMs), such as those that make up the ITS-90 standard, are seen as the most rel...
