The MASER 10 was launched on 2 May 2005. This was the 10th flight of the Swedish Space Corporation (SSC) Microgravity Rocket programme. MASER 10 carried 4 experiment modules. The BIM module contained two biological experiments, investigating the effects of microgravity in mammalian cells. The ITEL-2 module investigated Interfacial Turbulence in an Evaporating Liquid with a free liquid surface. The CDIC created chemo-hydrodynamic pattern formation at a two-dimensional interface of two liquids. The TRUE-2 measured the effect of Thermal Radiation Forces on a solid disc crossed by a heat flux. The experiments were successful to 100% during the flight. After hard payload landing, the final success rate has been estimated to 90%. The Service Systems included high-speed telemetry/telecommand link to transmit measurement data and CCSDS compatible ground transmission of real-time high-quality digital video images from the 7 onboard cameras. The 351 kg payload was launched by the last existing Skylark rocket motor, providing an apogee of 252 km and more than 6 minutes of microgravity.
