North Sails built ultra light Zero G soft racks. These are built of Kevlar and Nomex. Each rack is 6 feet tall and 3 feet 6 inches wide. The lab contains 24 of these racks. Major scientific facilities inside the laboratory module include biotechnology, fluids and combustion, a space station furnace facility, human research facility and a gravitational biology facility.
North saves both weight and dollars.
In this case North and its sailing technology save money by building lighter equipment.
