Abstract
The Low Temperature Microgravity Physics Facility (LTMPF) is a multiple user and multiple-flight NASA facility that will provide a low temperature environment for about 4.5 months on board the International Space Station (ISS). The LTMPF will be attached to the Japanese Experiment Module (KIBO) Exposed Facility of the ISS. The Jet Propulsion Laboratory is developing the Facility for its initial flight in late 2005. The LTMPF will provide a reusable platform to enable state of the art experiments requiring both low temperatures and microgravity conditions. During each mission, two distinct primary experiments will be accommodated, as well as secondary experiments that can utilize the as built hardware.
