Crew members will research pneumonia-causing micro organism to enhance therapies for heart problems, develop an on-demand intravenous fluid supply system for future house missions, and examine how bodily traits can have an effect on blood movement throughout spaceflight. Different experiments embrace automated plant well being monitoring and analysis into the interplay of crops and nitrogen-fixing microorganisms to extend crop yields in house.
