The objectives of IDEA are to provide access to world wide body of information on microgravity flight experiments using a simple and open solution. The Microgravity IDEA can be used by investigators new to the area of microgravity research in order to efficiently obtain information about past results. It contains lessons learned from past work to support proposal preparation and evaluation. IDEA is also an educational tool for universities and other institutions interested in microgravity activities. The IDEA information technology concept is extensible and simple to implement.
