MOSCOW, August 21. /tass/. Tests of self-healing material on board the International Space Station (ISS) will take place in two stages. This was reported to TASS by Vladimir Koshlakov, General Director of the M. V. Keldysh Center (developer of the material, part of Roscosmos).

"This experiment (on testing the material - approx. TASS) we want to split into two parts. The first part is a simple, fast, indicative that the material works, and the second part is already a normal experiment, the creation of a specific design that could be used, including in the creation of the Russian Orbital Station," Koshlakov said.

According to the General Director of the M. V. Keldysh Center, work on the preparation of the experiment is being carried out jointly with the Yuri Gagarin Cosmonaut Training Center. The first part of the experiment is planned to be conducted with a representative of Belarus, who will go to the ISS, the second - with Russian cosmonauts.

In August 2020, Koshlakov informed TASS about the development of a nanomaterial for spacecraft capable of recovering in case of damage, including micrometeorites. The basis of such a material is a non-Newtonian fluid, its viscosity depends on the deformation rate.
