Exploring Microgravity: Foam Physics Experiment in Swedish Lapland

The video describes a unique science program at S Range in Swedish Lapland, where sounding rockets are launched to conduct experiments in low gravity. The European Space Agency's MAXUS 6 mission includes a study on foam physics. The launch is witnessed by a team from Paris Wood University. After the launch, the experiment payload separates and conducts experiments in near weightlessness. The recovery team retrieves the experiment, and initial results show success. The next mission, MAXUS 7, is planned for early next year.
