Science
[edit]His work on bubbles is important, because he showed that water can form a film in space. This brings more insights into surface tension, films, and more. It is not mentioned here, but it is a part of his Saturday Morning Science series. I think it should be mentioned. ~ Vidyut — Preceding unsigned comment added by 59.181.71.247 (talk) 21:41, 28 February 2012 (UTC)
- That would be more appropriate for the science on ISS article, or the article on that type of science. Pettit, was merely the person who ran the experiment that was put together by a team of scientists on the ground.--NavyBlue84 21:54, 28 February 2012 (UTC)
