Andre Kuipers mentioned Bradford on Twitter

The Bradford Microgravity Science Glovebox (MSG), located in the International Space Station US Destiny module, enables scientists from multiple disciplines to participate actively in the assembly and operation of experiments in space with much the same degree of involvement they have in their own research laboratories. Developed in cooperation with ESA and Astrium, integrated by NASA's Marshall Space Flight Center, the MSG was launched to the ISS in June 2002. This facility offers an enclosed 255-litre work area that is accessible to the crew through sealed glove ports and to ground-based scientists through real-time data links and video. Because the MSG work area can be sealed and held at a negative pressure, the crew can manipulate experiment hardware and samples without the potential hazard of small parts, particulates, fluids, and gasses escaping into the open laboratory module.

After 7.5 years, it's great to work with Bradford's Microgravity Science Glovebox again: http://flic.kr/p/bedVTa
