The International Microgravity Laboratory (IML) mission series was planned to be a cooperative project involving
scientists, astronauts and engineers from 13 countries. NASA, the European Space Agency (ESA), and the space
agencies of Canada, France, Germany and Japan agreed to share resources for conducting science experiments in
microgravity and to share the results of those experiments.
