Reviewer 1 Report
The paper addresses a topical subject and is well written and presented. The writing style is fluent and the English language is free from grammar mistakes. Technically the quality of the paper is good and the illustrations are clear and serve a useful function to help clarify the arguments. Therefore I am of the opinion that the article is ready for publication and does not require additional revision.

Reviewer 2 Report
The introduction needs to be extended.
A list of abbreviations and a nomenclature are to be added.
What is the novelty of the work? And are the measurement conditions similar to space conditions?
In the section ‘’experiments’’ the authors mentioned ‘’ The overall setup for both experiments is almost identical’’ without indicating what are these 2 experiments.
What are the characteristics of the 3D printer ?
Why the tank has this specific shape?
An experimental uncertainty study is to be performed.
Practically what is the interest of the performed optical measurements?
What is the effect of gravity on the contact angle?
The subtitle ‘’ 2.1. Angle measurements’’ is to be changed to ‘’ 2.1. Contact Angle measurements’’.
