Shock-Impacts and Vibrational <i>g</i>-Forces Can Dislodge <i>Bacillus</i> spp. Spores from Spacecraft Surfaces
Mars spacecraft encounter numerous <i>g</i>-loads that occur along the launch or landing vectors (called axial vectors) or along lateral off-axes vectors. The goal of this research was to determine if there was a threshold for dislodging spores under brute-force dynamic shock compression...
