Most of our knowledge on heterogeneous media in the Universe comes from the light they scatter. This light is mainly linearly
polarized, and the polarization phase curves contain information about the properties of the scattering dust. In the solar
system, the dust seems to be made of irregular aggregates with a size greater than a few microns and a fractal structure.
Many constraints appear in the scattering computations, due to the trickiness of the mathematical calculations, and to our
ignorance of the precise structure of the dust. This leads to the necessity to perform light scattering measurements on characteristic
aggregates, built under low velocity ballistic collisions. Microgravity is a sensible way to achieve such measurements on
a cloud of levitating and aggregating dust particles. A first step has been the PROGRA2 experiment, which operates during parabolic flights on an aircraft. The instrument is a polar nephelometer measuring successively
the light scattered by a dust sample at various angles; it is fully operational, and will provide a data base of polarization
phase curves. A second step is the CODAG-SR experiment, which uses the duration of a rocket flight to build up dust aggregates.
The instrument measures simultaneously the light scattered at numerous phase angles; it is now space qualified, and should
provide in a near future a monitoring of the intensity and polarization phase curves while the aggregation processes are taking
place.
