Abstract
We describe an experiment container with light scattering and imaging diagnostics for experiments on soft matter aboard the International Space Station (ISS). The suite of measurement capabilities can be used to study different materials in exchangeable sample
cell units. The currently available sample cell units and future possibilities for foams, granular media, and emulsions are presented in
addition to an overview of the design and the diagnostics of the experiment container. First results from measurements performed
on ground and during the commissioning aboard the ISS highlight the capabilities of the experiment container to study the different
materials.
