Services and Support
Access BEST the way your program needs
Altered Gravity helps research teams plan and conduct ground-based partial-gravity studies using BEST Series technology. Organizations can purchase a BEST platform for ongoing laboratory use or access the technology through Simulation as a Service for defined studies. Contract research support is also available for teams that need assistance developing the protocol, configuring the platform, conducting the experiment, or preparing the resulting run data for analysis.
