'Pigs PXIs in Space'. Very cool cold!

I read about that experiment a few days ago but didn't delve into the details.

Thanks

Hey,

That looks like a PXI! But its impossible to confirm.

Because it is strictly a measurement system for scientific research I can't see why it wouldn't be one!

Interesting mention.

Looks like one... More evidence here (see Figure 3): https://directory.eoportal.org/web/eoportal/satellite-missions/i/iss-cal#UQelO1163Herb 

Ed. And it's actually named PXI Chassis here 🙂

Yes, that link you can make out a NI logo as well.

That's pretty cool.

we are using LV2012 on a PXI-1000B chassis. The software controls all aspects of the experiment.

Are you from NASA? Is this an unofficial conformation? An image might as well be a stock image, after all.

Agreed!

That is why I ask my customers to take pictures of me just to prove I am not exaggerating.

Sometimes they will take the picture for you and suggest others to go with it.

Looking clearly at fig 3 in the link.... yup, that's Nigel flying on the PXI chassis,  Nigel is the NI Eagle logos name.
