    Comment Located at the German Aerospace Centre (Deutsches Zentrum für Luft- und Raumfahrt - DLR) in Cologne, MUSC offers support for the preparation, operation and evaluation of space experiments.Scientific and technical experience in the fields of materials sciences, biology and radiation biology, human physiology, and planetary and comet physics have been built-up over the last two decades.MUSC is a cooperative effort between the two institutes of Space Simulation and Aerospace Medicine. It is the central German User Support Centre for the microgravity sciences.A broad scientific-technical infrastructure is available to the scientific laboratories of the MUSC. These facilities are offered to the users for their scientific experiment preparation or materials analysis, respectively.More than 400 experiments on over 40 missions on various carrier systems (e.g. Spacelab, MIR, Sounding Rocket and Parabolic Flights, EURECA and Foton) have been supported.MUSC is assigned as a Facility Responsible Centre for Biolab and for the Materials Science Laboratory/LGF.
