Scientific paper

In the frame of an agreement with NASA, the CNES (French Space Center) is developing in new dedicated facility for the study of transparent materials under microgravity conditions. The DECLIC facility (Dispositif pour l'Etude de la Croissance et des Liquides Critiques) will permit to study the behaviour of transparent media in experimental thermal conditions extremely well controled. The optical diagnostics used in the instruments make available in situ direct observation,images recording and transmission to ground of the data in real time Integrated on board the International Space Station, as an EXPRESS Rack payload, the DECLIC facility will permit to implement an wide experimental program, using telescience capabilities that will enable experiment optimisation under Scientist remote control. The DECLIC facility will be operated from the french USOC named CADMOS at Toulouse, in close relationship with the other Control Centers located at NASA, ESA and the User Home Basees (UHB) where the scientists will perform their studies.
