Join the ISS National Lab at these upcoming events and engagements.
ISS National Lab Mission Overview, SpaceX CRS-19
The ISS is poised to receive a multitude of critical research and supplies as part of SpaceX’s 19th commercial resupply services mission to the orbiting laboratory. This video provides an overview on some of the investigations destined for the ISS National Lab on this mission
SpaceX CRS-19 Research Overview: Confined Combustion
The National Science Foundation is funding an experiment from Case Western Reserve University that seeks to study flame spread in confined spaces, where fire can be accelerated. Results may improve fire safety codes on Earth to help prevent injuries and save lives.
SpaceX CRS-19 Research Overview: Mighty Mice in Space
On SpaceX CRS-19, the Jackson Laboratory is sending to station female mice, including a few that lack the gene for producing myostatin, a growth factor that normally acts to limit muscle growth in both mice and humans. Microgravity induces rapid muscle and bone loss, providing accelerated models of disease for research aimed at improving therapeutics for patients on Earth.
