What is a microgravity engineer?

Answer #1

An engineer that works with things that have little or no gravity?

Answer #2

A person that studies processes under near free-fall (microgravity) conditions, the factors controlling processes are changed from what they would have been under normal gravity. For example, buoyancy-driven convection is eliminated. For systems with a liquid-vapour interface present, this often means a surface tension gradient is the dominant force producing convection.
