In 2016 and 2017,S J-10 and TG-2 satellites were launched.In this short paper,we report recent progress on the studies of manipulation of colloidal droplets and instability of thermocapillary convection in large Prandtl number liquid bridge that based on the space experiments boarding S J-10 and TG-2 satellites,separately.It was shown that the colloidal droplets can be successfully formed and manipulated in microgravity through the patted substrates.In another aspect,the coffee-ring effect was observed at the first time in space.For the studies of the instability of thermocapillary convection in large Prandtl number liquid bridge in microgravity,our experiments in TG-2 broadened the way of such kind of study and abundant experimental results are emerging.
