Why is the Composite Origami team flying in microgravity? We want to improve the techniques for fabrication, storage, deployment, and tracking of composite origami structures used in outer space.

Thanks @NASAArmstrong for this amazing opportunity. We had a blast on the @ZEROGResearch flight doing this work.
In Nov, 10 space techs supported by NASA Flight ✈️ Opportunities were put to the test in 0 gravity with @GoZeroG including this lightweight spacecraft boom from @NCStateEngr – it can be used for deploying solar arrays, solar sails, and other instruments in space. 📸: @GoZeroG

Wrapping up two weeks of @ZEROGResearch, we remain truly inspired by the numerous teams of #scientists, #engineeers, #inventors and #creators that performed microgravity #research on board G-FORCE ONE. #FlightSuitFriday has never looked so good!
