Many of the materials research experiments to be conducted in the Shuttle Space Processing Program require the manipulation and control of weightless molten materials in a non-contaminating environment. In these experiments, the melt is positioned and formed within a container without physically contacting the container's wall. JPL is developing a high temperature Acoustic Containerlesse Processing Module (ACPM) for early OSTA shuttle flights. The manipulation capabilities of this module in a micro gravity field opens a vista to a wide variety of experiments. The equipment, past results, and expected performance is described. Some new and novel techniques in optics and control will also be presented. (DePo)
