Engineers from Trinity College Dublin are among an elite team of researchers working aboard the ""Vomit Comet"" in zero-G. They are conducting experiments with the goal of designing technology that may one day enable people to explore the depths of space.

In this video (one of four 'shorts' from a recent mission) we hear from Dr Tony Robinson why the team is so interested in learning how water behaves in zero-G. Dr Robinson is Associate Professor in Trinity’s School of Engineering, and a Funded Investigator with CONNECT, the Science Foundation Ireland Research Centre for Future Networks.
