Dilute solutions of CaCl_2 and KH_2PO_4 + K_2HPO_4 were diffusing from either side into a mixing chamber with KCl solution. The microgravity experiment yielded aggregates of large crystals of OCP (Ca_8H_2(PO_4)_3,5H_2O) and spherolites of smaller, but still visible crystals of HAP (Ca_5OH(PO_4)_3), the stable final phase. Ground-based experiments yielded submicroscopic HAP crystals. Results of calculations of diffusion and crystal growth on the basis of previous knowledge agree well with observations.
