#NASA #ISS #NG16 #CYGNUS - About the next demonstration being discussed - Upgraded Air Scrubber nasa.gov/centers/marsha…
Both Donnie McCaghren, project manager at NASA’s Marshall Spaceflight Center in Huntsville, Alabama, and Michael Salopek of Johnson, co-investigator discussing the experiment.
Q: On Materials were tested on-orbit or on the ground? about 15 new materials tested on the ground, materlas a stronger thermally stable and better to absorb CO2
#NASA #ISS #NG16 #CYGNUS - Dr. Ngan F. Huang, assistant professor of cardiothoracic surgery at Stanford University - Tissue Engineered Muscle as a Novel Platform to Study Sarcopenia nasa.gov/mission_pages/…
Q: Why do the Study A: On Earth, this takes years to study if we can accelerate this in microgravity, we can test pharmaceuticals faster, not only to see muscle loss on Earth or in microgravity to help our Astronauts
Q: How is the experiment going to work A: Using a tissue chip system going on a scaffold the way our skeletal muscles are organized. Will look at different time points after a week will preserve the sample to study on Earth.

1st time to test a new manufacturing technique and not a part on the ISS
Q: what will be the difference between testing in microgravity and a lunar environment? Not all that sure just yet on the differences.
