NASA has announced that Astronauts onboard the International Space Station (ISS) have successfully mixed cement in the space for the first time. NASA called this project Microgravity Investigation of Cement Solidification (MICS), and the astronauts explored whether solidifying cement in microgravity could create microstructures. The samples will be compared with the cement samples in microgravity from the earth.
